I do good job of not "blowing up" a guy's phone but when i don't txt or call for a day or two and wait for him to contact me in his own time he manipulates my lack of contact "so you're not talking to me anymore?" How do i respond to that?

Start by spinning it into a joke, "What, you'd rather I text you every hour?" and then see if he's really being serious or maybe just joking around and it's not coming through.

If he's not joking, I'd seriously consider moving on, to be honest. It's good that you're not clingy: it's bad that he kinda is, and passive aggressive about it. You are right, after all: communication is a two-way street, and he should occasionally give you a call.

agreed. clingy guys can become controlling guys, not all of them, but it's a pattern you should at least think about. RP is 100% spot on, good luck!

I knew a guy(42 years old), clearly not a baby anymore.
The point is he still will sent those crazy messages to me "Are you still Alive? Why don't contact me?"
If you don't like him,then leave or you'll have more questions to ask later.

I think guys get to be level 5 Klingons the older they get. Seems like every other 40 something guy I date, creeps me with the squeeze play to the point it’s suffocating.
