| I met someone but he lives overseas. We had a brief in person encounter, just friendly. We’ve kept in touch as friends. We’ve talked on the phone a handful of times, for at least 2 hrs each time. I am attracted to him but I am having a difficult time reading the situation. Our conversations are enjoyable (he actually said so), but not sure if he is interested in me romantically. I would feel awkward directly asking him or sharing how I feel. He is very handsome and he could be dating around. But if he were not interested would he communicate with me in this way? |
| Apply for 90 day fiance now. |
| At this point you've got to assume you're just friends. When my now-husband left to work overseas, he proposed before he left. |
| Based on what you've written here I think you need to assume you're just friends. For me, I wouldn't pour more energy into a guy who left me wondering if he liked me, but it takes all kinds. |
| He would not bother chatting with you if he wasn't interested. |
This. Guy here. There's no way I'm chatting with a women for 2 hours without being interested in more than just friendship |
| OP, you are going to have to suck it up and ask. |
| How will this work, with him overseas? |
I am assuming that you have actually met this person.... and it's not just online/phone/chat |
Sure, but "interested" in what? I promise you every woman responding on this thread has a corresponding story about a guy staying on the phone with them for hours at a time, but then not wanting to date them because it was game they were running on multiple women simultaneously. He might be interested in more than friendship (/sex), but not in pursuing anything like dating or being exclusive since they're long distance. OP sounds a little giddy and she either needs to step back or DTR, not just float along falling for someone who hasn't been explicit that he's interested in dating her. |

Do you know what unavailable means? He's in a different country. He is unavailable.
What's the matter with you people? |
| I don’t know OP. I was single and found that due to my charming and witty (and highly responsive) texting, that there were multiple men who wanted to occupy my time but not date. When people say men are only after sex, it’s not true. Some just don’t want to deal with dating and want an emotional/intellectual text buddy. |
Haha that's exactly what I was thinking! |
| Sounds like you are being catfished, OP. |
+1 be cautious, |
