What should I do?
So a few weeks ago I asked this guy to prom and he said yes. I wasn’t expecting a yes, but it was a nice surprise that he accepted my offer. He’s not usually into dances and rejected quite a lot of people in past years. Anyway, I know him fairly well, but we’re mainly just school friends. However, many of my other friends know him better, but they say he considers everyone an acquaintance.
Fast forward a few weeks later and I ask him for his number to discuss prom details, he is polite and offers to split the fees, etc. A few days later I end up skyping with him and another one of his friends. We were originally skyping with a large group of friends, but it dwindled down to the three of us. I asked him if it was alright, and he told me he wanted me to stay and that it was fine. The three of us ended up skyping for three and a half hours.
My problem is that he is a really bad texter, and when I explained that I would like to get to know him a little better, he admitted that he just doesn’t feel up to responding sometimes and not to take it personally. I asked him if he suggested any other ways to get to know him, but he just replied saying, ” Idk, that’s sort of a hard question.” I suggested that we skype or maybe go out just to eat and talk, but he replied that he was busy that night, but that we would at least be in contact. I replied that I just meant any time or day when he was available, and that he should be honest if he didn’t want to do anything.
Funny thing is, he never responded to that last text, and I haven’t tried since. I don’t know what to do and he even agreed with me in saying that he understands not wanting to go to prom with a complete stranger. I just feel confused, and I’m not sure how to go about things anymore. I don’t want to give up, but I try my best to respect boundaries and give people space. The only problem is that he agreed with me on not wanting to go with a complete stranger, and then doesn’t give me the option of working on that.
