I'll bet he'd be climbing the walls if you disappeared for a week and kicking himself up and down the street if you came back with a boyfriend. That gentlemanly detachment would go flying out the window. Man, he needs a good kick in the keister. I just want to shake the guy and say, "What are you doing!?! Good god, man, listen to yourself!"
Okay, so this is what I'm thinking. I'm thinking he has some really low self esteem and wouldn't step into the ring with you unless you pretty much threw yourself on top of him. But what can you do? The guy has to chase. This is The Rule. You're not obligated to throw your proverbial doors wide open. In the end, if it doesn't work out, don't blame yourself. I hope he at least learns a lesson about the downside of being a knight in shining armor. I think you've done everything you can to give this guy a chance to make his move. I applaud your patience. But I don't applaud his ridiculous mincing.
