how to keep a guy interested?
Posted: 11/27/2006 1:01:20 PM
OP, is already your way of thinking *keeping* him interested. I don't think so that there is such a need or urge to please someone or do something in order another will come back or be around.
That interest is either in place or not. Mutual I mean. Otherwise it is pointless to contemplate how /what to do to entice ...

Chill out and don't worry. Che sera sera ...

Come on!!

One date, and during the holidays... give it some time. If you feel like calling, do so. It's way too soon to know one way or the other if there is a problem.

Patience.

Hey Mr Ultimo...

Have read a few of your posts, and you're pretty intuitive. Tell me what you think about this. Emailed a guy I found interesting. He replied with a brief email.I've done most of the emailing. He does the 'Read/Delete' thing.Did chat on Yahoo Messenger, learned a little more about each other.Time passed, holiday season arrived.No emails. Emailed him asking if he was still interested. He emailed back said he was still interested, had been working odd hours at his job, we'd chat soon. So far zilch.

My gut tells me write him off, but I've jumped the gun before and regretted it.Don't wanna make the same mistake twice.

At the grand old age i am, i have to say, buzz you have it, i also have to add, we may all know these things but boy does the heart get in the way sometimes lol. Go with your heart and your head however long it takes they both work on intuition. Hard road but we all get there.
Blessed be.

msg 3

I only read to msg 3 and that was enough. MSG 3 is right. I will elaborate. If a guy is into you it is hard to get rid of him let, alone keep his interest.

People who say things like:
Scared him off,
fear of commitment
playing games,

Are people who are getting used over and over again. Beautiuful women never complain about "scaring off" men because the men are sincerely interested. Find a man who is sincerely interested in you and you won't worry about such things.

I totally agree with athletic2222..give him another week to respond and if he doesn't, cut your loses. He is just not that into you.....you don't have to keep a man's intrest. If he is into you he will bend over backwards to spend time with u or talk to you. When a man wants to be with you he will let you know. There will be no guessing. Ask yourself this question: When you leave a guy guessing are you head over heals for him? Valerie

Hey,

I'm having a very similar experience and you know what I think? If you really want an answer and you are not getting a straight answer from the guy, start feeding yourself some hard truths.

Maybe this guy is married and cheating on his wife and that's why he barely responds?
Or maybe he's living with someone and cheating on his girlfriend?
Maybe he pretended to be interested in you on the date (the same way us women do) in order to be polite?
Maybe he's more interested in another woman?
Maybe he's getting back together with an ex-girlfriend?

These are all things that I have started thinking to myself. And I haven't thought these things to depress myself or be pessimistic (and I don't say them to you to be mean either), but I've thought of these scenarios in order to get a possible answer when I couldn't get one from the guy. Because these scenarios are reality.

My advice to you is...to go with the advice of the guys that have responded to your post, not too many of the women unless they are echoing the responses of the guys. Because this forum is called "ASK A GUY" not "Ask a Girl/Woman". He should be 100% into you! And HIS ACTIONS SHOULD SHOW THAT HE IS 100% INTO YOU! Cancelling and not rescheduling are actions that don't match with a guy that is really interested in you. That's it.

Gotta agree with this lady, he never really was interested in all likelyhood
