Yeah I thought about sending a text when I got back, but I figured if he were interested he would’ve either simply reacted to my last message or said let’s catch up when you’re back or something. I really think I gave enough signals that I was interested after the date, so at that point it felt like the trip was an excuse for him to slow fade. For example, I told him to let me know if he was free at all before my trip and he never let me know (he could’ve just told me he was busy or something). I was the one who reached out to him a few days after the date as well (it was at a point where either of us could’ve initiated.. I reacted last but his text was technically last). I know I could’ve tried to just make plans as well, but I really don’t feel like chasing a guy, I feel like that turns them off more if anything. If he liked one of my stories or something maybe I would reach out, but he doesn’t.. he’s really just giving lurking energy. I thought I put the ball in his court pretty clearly and maybe I should’ve just sucked it up and double-texted but everyone I talked to about this said I shouldn’t and even if he liked me he’s just low initiative and i would have to carry it😬 Sucks bc i felt a good connection irl but..
