Question:
I am in relationship with someone who is too laid back. When we meet, we have a great time, but we don’t get to see each other very often and he hardly calls or SMS me during the week. I wonder why he doesn’t make more of an effort. Does it mean he’s not that into me? from pinqq
Answer:
That's certainly a possibility. The other is that he's not a guy to rush into relationships which is actually a good thing.
A lot of people get carried away quickly but then the fire burns out, causing hurt all round. Perhaps you might fall into the second category? That would explain your impatience with the current situation.
Why not enjoy the good times and let things develop naturally? There's no reason why you can't contact him when you want to. That might give him the idea you'd like more connection and this will grow more rapidly.
