I think you’d really do well to get my book, Think & Date Like A Man. You can click on the Dating Advice Books link above, and order the book there. It would be PERFECT reading for your week’s vacation — although if you can read it sooner, you’ll benefit more quickly.
The balancing act for you is to pull back without setting up alarm bells for him that there’s something wrong in the relationship. Be careful not to get angry at him. What you should do is make yourself seem desirable and worth his chasing after. Don’t be so available. But at the same time, flirt with him. Make him want you enough to pursue you. He should feel like a real man when he gets the prize, which is you! And the only way he’s going to feel that way is if you give him something worth winning — and that would be you and your attentions.
