I've been with this guy, and for the most part I'm always the one calling him to talk or make plans. I thoroughly believe that if a guy is really interested, then he'll try to seek me out. So occasionally, I won't call him, and it'll take him a week to call me. Is this typical guy behavior, or is he just not that interested?



Not knowing him personally, I don't know. All guys are different and act differently. Some don't make plans because they just don't know and prefer you to be the one in charge because they don't want to pick something you're not going to like. Others don't make plans because they don't really care while others plan without consideration of you, and others plan with consideration of you.

I personally believe it's a 50-50 street; you have to make plans as much as he does, but if he isn't doing anything, you should ask him to get your answer rather than assume he's not interested or anything.

A week is quite a while to wait for someone to call you back. I'd start keeping an eye out for someone who you click with a bit more.

I am in a similar situation. And a few weeks ago i did ask him why he didn't contact me. He said he was really sorry and he just got busy with his kids,work. And when he finally sits down at 10 at night he knows i'll be in bed. Anyway since then he has been so much better.
So maybe just ask him.
Good luck xx

A lot of guys are that way though. I suggest talking to him about it!

But I think No. BOTH people should make an effort! lol. That way you can surprise him with things he want to do or the other way. Girls are SOOO shallow these days. DO NICE THINGS FOR YOUR MAN TOO! There's TWO of you, not one!!!

He's not interested. If he REALLY likes you it will not take him a week to realize "HEY! I haven't talked to that awesome girl Amy in a while" he's probably thinking, "eh, haven't talk to Amy in like a week, I guess I could call her to see what I can get." If a guy REALLY likes you, he will not call you only after you don't call/text for a week. He will probably make an effort to call you at LEAST twice a week, try and plan sweet things for you. Call or text you sweet things through out the day. Honestly in my option, this guy does not like you, nor have feelings what so ever for you, unless they are REALLY weak. You deserve more than just a once a week never call guy. Move on and move up, get another, BETTER guy who will treat you sweeter.

We can't really give great advice on the little information needed. Really, the main thing you should do is just ask him. Personally, I'd rather ask him and find out the answer rather than potentially be wasting time, or not as happy as I should be in a good relationship with potential.

I had a bf like that & we ended up breaking up cuz we like never talked or anything...Ask him about it & keep an eye on the situation...It might be a sign

I've had my share with guys like that-honestly every guy i've dated acted the same when it came to calling and making plans.

I know its going to be hard but tell him how it makes you feel when he doesn't take the reigns every now and then...then, WAIT.

Don't call him anymore, stop making plans. Just live your life...socialize, meet new people, concentrate on school, and don't forget to hang out with your friends. Try to rid him out of your head...If it helps, delete his number from your phone so there won't be any temptation.

If he doesn't call before the week ends, end the relationship. Obviously he isn't interested enough to ask about your day, or how you are. Move on. There are men out there who will care about you more than him, trust me.

Okay, so be STRONG, be INDEPENDENT, be HONEST, and be YOURSELF

Good luck girl, DONT break. Press forward.

To give an update to this situation (Yes, I originally posted this question):

I talked to him about our lack of communication. We both agreed to make more of an effort, which lasted a little while, but just recently we separated, because it wasn't working out.

I know I deserve better. And I won't put up with this again. He isn't' worth my time, as I obviously wasn't worth his.

Thanks everyone for the support and advice.

GOOD FOR YOU!
