Recent dilemma and wondering if I should text or not!

Should I text him?

I’m a 33F and he is a 48M. As I type this, I feel a little silly. I’ve been talking to this person for about a month, and I thought things were going alright. We don’t talk very often, but when we talk, i think its interesting. I’ve always heard that when you meet someone in person, that’s when you really find out whether there’s potential or not.

So, I met him briefly, and we had a good conversation. At least, I thought it went well. After he got home, he texted me to let me know he made it safely and said he enjoyed our conversation. The next day, I honestly expected to hear from him, but I didn’t until that evening. He texted saying he’d had a hectic day at work, and I responded. Since then, I haven’t heard from him.

Personally, I feel like he may not be interested in pursuing anything further. I’ve always heard that when someone is genuinely interested, they make an effort to stay in touch. I know some people will say I should text or call him, but the truth is I’ve been down that road before. It often ends with me doing all the work to keep the connection going while the other person puts in very little effort.

I want things to be different this time. I want someone to show genuine interest in getting to know me. I don’t want to be the one overthinking, and carrying the relationship. So, should I just let it go, or should I reach out over the weekend if I still haven’t heard from him?

\*\*TL;DR:\*\* I’m confused because I thought we had a good conversation when we met, but there hasn’t been much communication since. I’ve been wondering whether I said or did something that might have changed his mind.
