Ask yourself first ' How much do I like this guy? ' If you gotta think about it then either you should get to know him a little better or if he aint that hot, then dump him...

If you like this guy teh keep reading. Guys dont think like girls so sometime you need to think like them in order to communicate, Thats right .. it s that word communicate. Now I m gonna warn you.. it wont be easy ... but it works.

First, stop kissing and stuff .. instead say 'Hey I wanna talk to you' ... dont get all mushy and emotional cause then he wont hear a word you are saying. Start with something like 'Hey we've been doing alot of kissing but we dont do things like...' and list the things you would like to do with him. Pay attention to his body language .. does he look like he is interested in what you have to say ? If no, then thats a good sign that he is dumber then a door knob and you might wanna say good bye. Now if he does engage and show interest, tell him what activities you would like to do with him ... you never know .. he may feel the same way. Tell him in a clear way what your needs are, even if it is to text you first (although I find that irrelevant it might be important to you.

So conclusion ? Communicate and make sure what you want is what he wants and that you both have a common goal.


An old boyfriend, lives in another state, texts me, calls me, sends me pics of his kids. He is divorced. It was 30+ years that we didn't talk. Found me on facebook. Could this mean he might want to get back together? We share, on the phone, everything going on in our lives. I am a 55 year old woman. (link)
It could mean that you where an important part of his life and values you enough to want to reconnect, trust you enough to share his personal moments with you and sounds like he has opened up and feels comfortable with you.

It does sound like the ideal conditions to a healthy relationship, the question is however, do you want to get back together with him.

Keep in mind that both he and yourself have changed since, so you will both need to rediscover each other.

Without having any expectations, why not see where it leads. Don't put any pressure on yourself or him. Meet him half way go to the movies, go for coffee,and do it without any expectations and allow things to take their course as they are meant to be .. you may find yourself in the middle of a happy ending.

Good Luck


Alright, well here I go. (link)
Lets see, you are daddy's 'baby'... asks if you still love him ...tells you he misses you ... sounds to like he might be feeling a little forgotten and insecure.

From what I understand you have grown up, have new responsibilities and new priorities. So sometimes. like many of us, we tend to loose focus and get all wrapped up in work, school careers and all those exiting new things in life and forget who stood by our sides .. our family and friends.

Sometimes you need to put the breaks on, stop and take a moment to reconnect with people, especially family and friends. Dont wait for a phone call... take a few minutes, pick up the phone and call him. Schedule your phone calls if you have to, set a day and time and dont allow yourself excuses.

If you have always had a good relationship with your dad, nurture it. In fact nurture all your good relationships, they will only grow as you do. Never measure who calls who or who calls more.. Your dad may not call because he may feel like he is disrupting the new family dynamic or maybe he feels you want space. Whatever the case may be, we all tend to take for granted that our loved ones are around and we always think ' .. there is always tomorrow or next week ... ' but we can never predict tomorrow so best do it today.

So long answer short: Call your dad. If you never get around to it, it s because you are simply becoming a busy body and you need to slow down and maybe keep a schedule.
