Love life or lack thereof

I hadn't heard from Mr. 14 years older (13 now cuz I had meez a birsday). Last I heard he wanted to whisk me away for a weekend and asked me for an email address off of the dating site. I put myself in stealth and sent him my email. And waited. And waited.

So last night (after five days of waiting) I sent him an email saying "I'd hoped you asking (for my email) meant you wanted to contact me. Sigh."

I meant it in a spirit of funny, flirtyness. That's my style on Roissy after all. It wasn't until afterwards I realized he doesn't read Roissy, doesn't know me well and might think that came across as needy. Nevertheless he replied.

"Hey You.....I don't know when I'll contact you. But I wanted your email address for future reference.

Maybe next week or the following week I will want to see you....then I can email you."

I don't know what to to make of that quite honestly. In many ways I like how he's taking control. I certainly am getting more excited by thoughts of him. However maybe he's simply not all that interested and this is him keeping me at bay while he chases others.

Here's how I replied:

Hi,

Writing is such a funny medium to communicate in. After I sent my email (lamenting the lack of contact) I realized it might come off as all whiny. I'm anything but and was actually trying to be cute and a teeny bit funny. But you never know how someone who doesn't know you all that well will read it.

As for next week - looks good, but the two weeks after that I'm away for holiday - whoot! I need a break in the BIGGEST way. (not intended to read as stress-case crazy chick)

Are you trying out other ladies before deciding I'm the best choice?? Your prerogative of course - but you know already - heh heh. :)



I feel like I'm taking the right approach. However you dudes know MUCH better than I what message he's sending me. Am I being a hopeless romantic??

edit note - I've met this guy in person, I realize how this post reads as if I've only communicated in email - not the case. Also for the record there will be no sexual weekend unless I'm exclusive with him - I DO NOT sleep/slut around - one man woman all the way. He can have others if we're in agreement about my place - but that's another story.
