what went wrong

So I met this great guy and we hung out a couple of times.and everythign was great .tehn one night we had made palns and I was to kidnap if you will froma party his family was having. so I called himand he wigged on me. soIwaiteda while went tosee himand things were ok soit seemed. we ended up tgether that night and thenhe wouldnttalkto me for like a week, and theneverythign was good again. until i invited himto dinner then he got distant againI dint hear from him for 3 days, whenI finally saw him inteh supermarket he was friendly and we made small talk, he left and forgot a bag of groceries so I was running to catch up to himand yelled his name again he wiggd on me in the parking lot. whenI asked him why he had toyell at me he jsut turned mean and said some very hurtful things. so I havent attempted to contact him . he is avoidingme but I see him everyday wheni walk he sits on his porchand just watches me pass and then goes back inthe house. his father tells me he misses me but is just to stubbern to admit it,. my plan was to give him a few weks and then try to talk to him . is that a good idea or should I just cut my losses . I do really like him alot and until the parkignlot issue wanted toget to knwo him better but now Iam so confused. Whydo men act like that? I amnot 100% innocent cause I did call him everyday coul dthat be why he is so angry? I have no idea.

Terri1, welcome to the forum

Whatever it is that makes him act so strange is his problem. I think you made it very clear that you would like to get to know him better. If he is interested in this as well he should make the first move now. I suggest you go on living your life and try to meet up with other nice people while he think things over and decide.

One thing: people that say hurtful things can repeat them. yelling at someone is often not a one-time thing. Take this into consideration. If this is his behavior and he doesn't see something wrong in it and you accept it you might be in for more in the future (would you two turn up being together).
