We're both in our early 30s. I (F) met him in 'real life' abroad, where I spent a week, so primarily I met him in person. We didn't exchange numbers, but I found him online, gave him my number and he replied that he would like to stay in touch. It literally made my day. And what's important he warned me at the beginning that he's not good at staying in touch. And I should also add, in general seems like he's the type of person who isn't so much online. I think he doesn't use social media.
It's been only a few days, not even a week but I think I'm freaking out if he's really interested or it's just his 'offline' style, because he texts me once a day and literally around three short messages. He apologized and told me he's been busy. He's really funny, almost flirty sometimes, he's also very intelligent, but our conversation doesn't look so deep and he rarely asks about my life or something. I know it's just the beginning, but how do I get to know him if things go so slow? I'm really trying to consider his perspective, I think he likes me and I loved our talks in real life, but I don't know what to think.
I asked details about his job and he answered, but I don't want to sound like an interviewer. I'm a texter, but because of him I adapted and my messages became shorter too. At this point if he answers so rarely, I feel like my questions and answers should be considered, I won't waste his answers for questions like how was your day lol and I don't like small talk too.
He's not from my town, it's like 3-4 hour drive, but before I would consider meeting him again I would like to get to know him online.
