I was dating a guy for 8 months. One night (2.5 months ago) I told him I wanted to take our relationship to the next level. I wanted to be in an official relationship. He said he wasn’t ready for that since he had gotten out of a long term relationship just before we started dating. Anyway, I got upset, said some things. He said some things and then I ended the text. We haven’t texted or dated since. He works at a bingo hall and I see him there once a week. At first, he wouldn’t look me in the eye. He always looked furious. And he only spoke to me when necessary. Now, he will look at me but he still won’t speak to me unless it’s necessary. I wrote him a short letter and gave it to him a couple of days ago. I apologized for everything I said during our last text. I apologized for taking so long to apologize. I told him I would like to continue our friendship. I told him I regret ruining our friendship. I gave him my phone # again and told him to text me if he ever wants to talk. I told him I hope he sends me a text but I’d understand if he doesn’t. I don’t plan to contact him again. If he doesn’t text or call me, I’ll know where I stand – but how long should I wait before I give up? I know it’s only been 2 days, but I’m worried that he doesn’t want anything more to do with me. He seemed quite furious the first week and still seems mad, just not quite as much. He seems a little less mad each week. I still hold out hope that he’ll come around. I’m just not sure how long I should hold out hope for..
