Thanks ZoeMarie, yes, I have always let him do the chasing. I did call him a few times over the few months, and a couple of texts here and there. But always he would call like three times a week, that's why I don't understand. He would always touch base with me and tell me what's going on with him, with his work and everything. Yes we both have the same situation our mom's living with us. She has her faculties his mom, and I have seen her the few times also. She hugs me when she sees me, we go back from our childhood years. We both enjoyed each other's company, and always enjoyed conversation and seeing each other. That's what baffles me, the last time we had talked I initiate it, and asked if he wanted to go for a walk, after his work, and he called me back and said he would have loved too, but he made plans with his buddy friend, and he always seemed truthful. I text him once during that week but now its been 11 days, since I talked to him, and I had called him on Sunday night and he wasn't home, but its not like him not to return my phone call. We had talked about making plans for my birthday a few weeks ago which is this weekend, and now just out of nowhere nothing. Their would be a few weeks in between we wouldn't talked but we always caught up, don't understand where this came out of...

Wow if you're in your fifties and he's taking things so slowly, chances are he only sees you as a regular friend. If he was more interested, he would look for you much more often.

I highly doubt that he's looking for the type of relationship that you want. It's time to go out and meet new people.
