HELP ME, HARLAN!
He has Priorities, and She Isn't One of Them
Dear Harlan,
I recently met this great guy about three and a half weeks ago. We have tons in common, he's super cute, passionate about learning and I really enjoy spending time with him. We kissed for the first time a little more than two weeks ago. The problem is, I haven't seen him since then. First he was extremely busy with school and work, then he was having family problems, and last I heard (four days ago) he was sick. (I've learned this from the five emails I've gotten during the past two weeks.) I keep trying to offer company if he wants to talk about stuff, or if he needs any help getting groceries or whatever, but I've just been having such a hard time keeping in contact with him. Considering we go to the same school and live less than a mile away from each other, I don't know why he can't pick up a phone for a few minutes, or at least answer when I try to call. I'll be graduating in a month and going to grad school in the fall, and he'll be studying abroad, so it seems kind of a silly to invest much
more effort in this. But on the other hand, I really like him and I don't want to have to give up on him.
Not Giving Up
Dear Giving Up,
I'll be blunt - you're just not that important to him. If you were, he would call you, see you or make some time for you. He doesn't want your company. If he did, he would ask you to come over or see you. He might be hanging out with another girl, he might not want to start dating because he's worried about falling in love with you, or he might be having an emotional breakdown. Whatever it is, you are not a priority. Find someone who can make you a priority. That's it.
