Huntress, thank you for your response, but...really? "cat and mouse"? I don't want to play games with a grown man. He asked me for my number first, I would think he would use it sometime. I did read the article you linked to, it's very interesting, but I fear that if I don't speak to him, he won't speak to me. Maybe you're right though. I'm thinking don't text or email him for at least a week. If I have to go to his building for work, should I ignore him? And by ignore I mean, don't say hello, wave, smile, or even speak if he speaks to me. I'm irritated that I should have to wait around for him to notice me.
Hi everyone, I'm an aquarius and I really need some help with this leo guy:
I met this guy a few weeks ago who I know is a leo but I don't know his exact birthday, I just heard him mention it. We work for the same organization, just in different buildings and I occasionally go to his location. One day, I was sitting working and he came over to me and we chatted a bit about what I was doing. He was smiling the whole time, like he was nervous or something but he ended up asking for my number, very discreetly. That same night, he texted me becuase I left without saying goodbye and we kind of flirted, so I told him he was cute. He said he thought I was too, that's why he wanted my number.
Now, he doesn't seem too interested, I have to always initiate conversation. Sometimes he won't reply for like 2 hours, and if I text again, he responds in a minute or so; it's like he's sitting around waiting. He even suggested we go out sometime and when I tried to see when he was available or wanted to go out that night, no response, a few hours later he says he was just at home with no plans.
I told him, after not speaking to him for a few days except about work, that we should spend some time together to talk and everything and that he better not to play hard to get, he said he "wasn't hard to get" but he "may be too open minded for me". After explaining what he meant (he's really liberal and likes to be adventurous, etc.), I laughed it off because he seems really cool and someone I'd like.
Now, if he was interested, why would he say something so silly, like an excuse I wouldn't like him? I wanted to talk some more but in the past, he doesn't respond like he's busy or something and I don't want to keep bugging him (even though he said I'm not). I try to wait a few days and then I text him and ask how his day is going and he responds but he never asks me first or tries to talk to me. What should I do? Leave him alone and see what happens or keep pressing him? Any advice would be useful, I really don't have any interest in playing games with someone who already knows I want to get to know him better. Is he rejecting me or what? I do not take lightly to being ignored or jerked around and in a way, I feel like he is trying to give me hints that he's not that interested.
Thanks for your comments, time to move on.
Hello all!
I've been reading this board for a while and finally decided to sign up. I need some advice, badly! I'm heartbroken because of a Cancer male and he doesn't even care. I finally decided to talk to him after not seeing him for a while and asked him if he remembered my crush on him, I was too chicken to tell him myself so I got a friend to ask for me and before she told him who it was that liked him, he said my name. I've read almost everywhere that Cancers have excellent memories so when he said he couldn't remember me liking him I knew it was a lie.
I remember how he barely spoke to me and just stared afterwards. He said he knew it was me "because of how I acted around him" and that he "would go out with me but he won't." I was so embarassed by the whole thing that I didn't speak to him either. He never initiates conversation with me, and when we do talk, he answers with no more than 5 words. He talks to other people online all the time but ignores me when I say a simple hello.
I realized that he would reply quicker before I told him again that I thought he was attractive and that we should hang out sometime (oh, and he quickly logged off too). So is he just not interested or what? I wish he would just be straightforward. It's been 4 months of this. I don't have to initiate conversation with other people all the time. It's just really annoying that my messages don't go through or he just didn't read them and swears he's not ignoring me (when I called him out on it)but he can play a numbers game and receive people's messages but not mine. I'm hurt and confused, any thoughts?
