I had decided he just wasn't "into this". He called tonight and talked for about 40 minutes. He told me he didn't call this weekend because he was in NY city. His daughter went there for work (doing commercials for SB diet) and they gave her two tickets and she asked him to go with her. Isn't that sweet? She likes her daddy.
He told me about NY and he asked me how work was today and about my daughter who's been sick. We talked about the weather. And he said he likes to get up on a good Saturday morning and take off and go somewhere for breakfast. And then he said he'd like to come have breakfast or lunch with me some Saturday. awwwwwwwwww, how sweet. I said I'd like that and it'd be nice to meet him face to face.
He sounded tired, I would be too if I'd been to NY over the weekend and then worked all day and he said of course he had to mow the grass tonight too, LOL. I told him to get some rest and we'd talk later in the week.
It's kind of nice to talk to someone about normal, everyday stuff. I am not going to get over excited, but it's nice...I'm enjoying this. Anyway, guess he's still into me.

Good for you! Sounds like a nice guy....have fun!

He does sound like a nice guy :)
And his reason for not calling does sound legitimate.
You know when I first met my SO, (we had chatted for a while and we weren't anywhere near serious dating), and then I was sent to Fairbanks, AK for two weeks and was so busy, when I had spare time, I called my daughter and family. I didn't get to speak to him until I got home. But I called him when I got home and gave him my seemingly unbelievable excuse, and he believed me. :) If he had given up on me, I would have lost a good one. But he didn't :)
So, yeah...I think he's still into you :)
I would suggest you meet in person as soon as possibe. I met someone online once, we emailed and then chatted on the phone a few times. He was incredibly nice, intelligent, educated, understanding... anyway I was SO excited to meet in person. So we met for coffee and I was SO dissapointed. There was absolutely nothing I found physically attractive about this man. He had posted a photo, head and shoulders, standing with his son, and was decent looking, but the picture must have been years old and really didn't look like the person I met.
It was a tough situation because we really had good conversations, and probably could have become good friends, but there was no physical attraction there for me and that is very important for a romantic relationship to develop, so I let the friendship go.
Good luck!

I agree that this is good advice. I have had this happen, too, a few times during online dating. There was one that hit it off on the phone so well that I tried 2 dates and the second date was worse than the first.
That chemistry thing is just so darn elusive - on both sides.
Good luck, Candi, and keep us posted. This is fun to hear about.
I hear ya...he's mentioning a breakfast/brunch meeting so I'm sure it will happen soon. Maybe this weekend.
His pictures didn't leave me wondering what he looks like, one is waist up and they are not pretentious. Sweatshirt with cutoff sleeves. Unless he smells bad I will probably have some attraction for him. In one he's smiling, the other two not.
I have gone on dates with people that I thought I probably wouldn't be very attracted to from their picture (Kevin the wannabe lawyer...remember? icky icky) and I'm usually right from looking at the pic, but yes face to face is next and he's the one talking about it. I'm sure it's important for him, too.
