Need advice!

What does it mean when you call a man and he doesn’t pick up and you sms him and he doesn’t reply? I understand he’s busy, but last we spoke he was telling me how much he likes me and wants to hook up. So why isn’t he picking up and replying? How do you get a man hooked?

He probably cant answer the phone or sms because his g/f or wife is there

ROFL ya that would make perfect sense, but he isn’t married or has a girl friend. We are very good friends but ended up falling for 1 another. I just don’t know what to do… You think you could give me an honest answer?

you’re over thinking the situation. He’s probably either just busy with work or whatever or he’s just trying to make you nervous and ancy. Exactly what your doing. Just chill. If he wants to get with you he will.

Im not going to get into the “hard to get” speal but that pretty much works every time. But you’re situation different. If you two were good friends and fell for each other than you two already have a good bond and you don’t need to play those games. Just be patient and don’t act needy or be the girl waiting for him to call. : )

He might not be receiving the text messages… that happened with my boi, I would send texts and never get replies but it was because his inbox was too full and he couldn’t receive the text messages.. don’t worry so much about it.. just relax and give him a day… don’t call or text him.. see if he texts/calls you. :)

I agree that you may be over thinking things, but if you were good friends before you got together there may be a chance he is worried about ruining your friendship if things dont work out.

I guess the best thing to do is to take things slowly and see how they develop.

you say that you were friends first but fell for each other, it probably feels so right for you, but it might feel a little weird for him, if he’s trying to take time to understand his emotions then its probably not a good idea to keep trying to txt or call while he’s not replying, this could sway his thinking into a new view of you, he might start to think your needy or something and not contact you at all.
He knows youve been making contact, leave it be and if he hasnt contacted you within another week then it might be safe to assume that hes rethought how the friendship has turned, dont be mad with him if thats the case, it sadly happens, by then maybe send him a message saying something like, you feel that your being left in the dark and if hes rethought the situation please let you know so your not dwelling on it
