    I tend to act a bit older.



    I just find it bemusing, that I can log on to facebook at the end of the day, and see that she has spent half the day sending people messages, and funny pictures, but doesn't have 5 minutes to speak to or text her boyfriend.

    Don't want to sound harsh mate but the above is a contradiction in terms!

    I originally came onto this forum to solve a few money problems, but as those have settled I find myself reading this section of the forum, more and more, and people always seem very helpful.

    So here is my problem.
    I started seeing a woman a couple months ago. Things seem to be going really well, despite the age difference we both have the same sense of humour (including taking the mickey out of each other and being able to joke around together), the same interests, and we just generally got on really well.

    Three weeks ago, she introduces me too her children, just a quick hello, how are you, who am I etc... (A good sign, I thought)

    Two weeks ago, we go over to her friends house to meet her friend, and her friends bf. (Another good sign I thought)

    Last week, we spend valentines evening together, and it was a very nice evening. But since then she's barely said a word too me, she's a very chatty woman normally, but for the last few days, i've barely heard anything from her, i've text her a few times and got a one or two word reply back and that is it.

    She went to visit her sister on Thursday, and will be staying until Sunday. She didn't mention this too me, and I feel a little down, because I had some flowers sent to her house on Friday, which will probably be dead by Sunday.

    I guess I am just frustrated that someone so chatty and whose company I enjoy is hardly saying a word too me at the moment, and would just like some opinions from more experienced minds.
    I have sent you a pm.
    You live..You learn.:)

    Text: "Hi. Have I done something to upset you, as you seem a bit quiet recently? Apologies if I have! Hope to see you soon, x"

    If she doesn't reply, then I guess she's changed her mind, so perhaps just move on.


    That kind of text would really annoy me, especially if I had replied to the texts you'd already sent! It would make you sound clingy and insecure. Just give her a call or a text asking how she is and tell her what you've been up to, there's nothing worse than thinking a bloke has been sat about just waiting for you to get back!
    Be who you are, say what you feel, those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind.
    They say that talking to yourself is a sign of mental illness. So I talk to the cats instead.

    Maybe the realities of dating a much younger boyfriend has kicked in. Maybe she has had some odd comments from her friends and family? Personally, i wouldnt give a stuff what other people thought but some people arent me.
