Ok....background (Some of you know part of this story, bear with me, I really need advice here)
***I really like this guy, but am not sure how to proceed. I am meeting other guys and not counting on him, thank goodness, since he's not really showing tons of interest. What would you do....??? I'm sorry this is so long. I don't know if I should confront him (in a nice way) and just say, "hey, you really don't have a lot of time right now, so I'm going to move on" or just let things go and see what happens....it's getting tiresome.
1/Met a man for the first time ...spent 3 hours with him at B & N....
2/Had an email from him when I got home basically stating that he wants to keep in touch(if I want to) and get together again sometime.
3/Heard from him 5 days later (email) stating he'd call that night. I was out and had one missed call...could have been from him....blocked number(cell phone).
4/Called me 4 days later(Thursday) and invited me out for that Saturday. We had a wonderful time....I really think he did, too....he mentioned how much fun he had a few times.
5/I texted him the next day to say Thanks and he texted me back again, stating that he was going away for work on Tues/Wed and would call me when he came back.
6/I received a brief email from him on Saturday night and then another on Sunday asking me what nights I have free this week. I wrote back mentioning that this week is crazy and I only have Wednesday night free.
7/I waited to hear from him and never heard back so I emailed him last night inquiring.
8/Got an email back tonight mentioning that he didn't know yet if he had to go away to VA again for work and would know, hopefully by 5:00 and that he would let me know....but It's past 8:00 and I still haven't heard from him.

>>since he's not really showing tons of interest. What would you do....???
I'd make dates with other guys. I would not mention anything to him at all -- I think that it should go without saying that you have other opportunities.
I wouldn't confront him, I'd just keep emailing and meeting other prospects, and if he steps up and asks you out again, great, but I wouldn't initiate any more contact with him.
