We talked over text a little bit while he was gone, but not a lot. I was going to text him yesterday, but I felt like I talk to him too much. I don't want to annoy him and scare him away. He's been talking to me less and less lately. I don't know if he still likes me or not. I feel like I did something wrong. I want to ask him if he doesn't want to talk to me anymore or if he's just going through something right now, but I get too nervous whenever I try. I don't want him to think I'm doubting him or I don't like him anymore..... Maybe I'm just too weird for him... Usually when I first start liking a guy I'm a little more reserved when I talk to him, but with this guy I was just myself. I must admit I am a pretty strange girl, and I'm slightly manly(lol), but it didn't seem to bother him before. Do you guys think I'm just over reacting?
Well have you known him a long time, been talking to him a long time? How recently did you guys start talking less? If it's just since November 11, then I wouldn't worry about it. My guy is Army and especially if the brother is back from deployment or finished his years of active duty, they may be having a lot of family time getting him moved and discussing future job plans, catching up, etc.
You could perhaps just send him a little text letting him know you're there if he ever wants to talk?
Also I understand you about being yourself. I've been myself with this guy and I don't know what you mean by 'manly' exactly, but I'm definitely weird (or so he frequently informs me haha) but hey, he likes it. He likes ME, so he likes everything that comes with that. I flail and I chat on forums and I'm goofy and I have a pet bunny that I often send him pictures of. But it's ME, it's what he's come to expect. Now if I changed, he would notice.
So be yourself. Don't ever become someone else; you will worry they don't care about you for you and you will be discontent, living behind a mask. Even if things don't work out, like he meets someone else or decides he likes you but not enough to really make a move - whatever it is, at least you will have been yourself and given it a try.
