I’ve (26F) been talking to this guy (25M) for about a month now and it had been going really well. We had actually matched on Tinder back in May but I wasn’t super active on the app or sending messages. Suddenly early last month he messaged me and we had texted everyday ever since until yesterday. We had exchanged numbers already and moved our conversation out of the app.
I’m usually very quick to set up a date with someone but we had both been very busy so though he had proposed a date (a picnic!) we hadn’t decided on a day until last week. I felt that things were going well. We FaceTimed for the first time last week and we were talking for 4 hours! We only got off bc it was past midnight but he texted me the next morning saying he enjoyed talking to me. I also went to a music festival this past weekend and he was asking me how it was and complimenting me on the outfit pics I sent him. Out of anyone I’ve talked to in the past year and a half, this was the best connection I’ve had.
Over the weekend he told me how he was looking forward to our date and he hoped I liked his food selections but on Sunday he let me know he was sorry but he had been called into work and he wouldn’t be back until late. He also said he was sorry for the late notice. I told him it was okay but I haven’t heard from him since. It’s just such an abrupt change from how things were before. Honestly I’m preparing for the worst bc in the past I’ve been ghosted in this same manner 🙁 Honestly I’m just very tired and disheartened. Maybe I’m overreacting but I feel like it says something to not even check up on me. It doesn’t take long to send a single text.
Am I overreacting?
TLDR: Is it an overreaction to be upset that I haven’t heard from the guy I’ve been talking to everyday since he cancelled our date? It’s been over 24 hrs
