He seems to be scared of commitment.. but just meet new ppl.. no reason for him to quit texting you after stating that he wants a relationship.. so rude and not manly.. great luck to you!!

Hes not scared of commitment, he just has another woman he would rather be with. Maybe you told him no a couple times?

Possibly, during your conversations, he learned something about you that didn't appeal to him. Maybe you are too conservative on something. Or not conservative enough. Or a million other variables. Just something to ponder.

Better yet, ask him directly.

How do you mean no a couple of times? You mean not able to make a couple of dates? Mind you, if you suggested an alternative they shouldn't lose interest, which seemed to happen to me when they started dating someone else... but kept me on a string 'til they were official. Horrible :(

My experience has been that no matter what they say, their actions speak louder than words. If he hasn't contacted you, then it may be that he's just not interested.

I'm going with the "he learned something about you that he doesn't dig" hypothesis. Maybe this thing he found out about you was political or religious, or perhaps, maybe more likely, it was something of a less definable nature. He might have had a very specific idea regarding who you are that was shattered when he got to spend more time with you. For example maybe he'd always thought of you as cute and timid but found out that you're actually louder and more opinionated that he'd expected. Or maybe he always thought you were a positive person but learned that you're more cynical than he'd have liked you to be. These are just examples, maybe you're actually super timed and very positive and it was the other way around. Who knows what it really was. Anyways, don't interpret his behavior as a sigh that you made any kind of mistake. If you were yourself with this guy you have nothing to regret.

 

Finally the whole thing could be do to some external circumstance we know nothing about. Maybe his ex-girl friend he's been pining for for six months straight finally got in touch with him and suggested they get back together. Or maybe he met Jessica Alba at his local bar and she fiercely seduced him and whisked him off to a island in the Caribbean where she is currently having her way with him.

 

I think, like someone already pointed out, if you really want to know what happened the most straight-forward way is to ask him. If you think it would be interesting/worth your time to find out, that is.

If it's bugging you that much, ask him.

 

I did the same with my one-week date. In the beginning he was super into me: 'we could make this work', 'we fit perfectly on all levels', blabla...

 

Till I didn't want to have sex with him till we were more official...

 

Then he brought up that he split with his exgf from a long term relationship only 2 months go... I got the vibe... then he told me we should pursue this... then he said he wasn't looking for any kind of relationship... then I got fed up of this confusion and confronted him.

 

He told me he just wanted to be friends and his exgf contacted him again, but he still doesn't want anything serious...

 

Confusion is not good... go no contact... if he really digs you, he'll make a move... if he doesn't, move on.

It's hard, I know, but long term it's for the best.

 

Rather be with someone that really wants to be with you. That's the foundation of a strong relationship.
