Am I overreacting or is this guy’s initial texts a red flag for future love bombing?
So I met this guy on Hinge - both of us mid 20’s - and we’ve been having casual conversations. Most of our conversations are surface level with some being a little on the flirty side. He pretty much asks me how I am every day and since I’m completing my Master’s Degree, I’m busy with class and homework - nothing of note.
We started talking on the app (in the Grey and Purple - these texts are within 2 days of talking). Later, I gave him my number (Grey and Blue)
It’s been less than two weeks and this guy has consistently talked about how much he wants to meet me, but when I lead him into asking me out, he changes subjects or doesn’t answer. It’s happened at least 5 times in the past 2 weeks.
When we finally scheduled a date - where I came up with the activity, location and time at his request, he cancelled 50 minutes before we were supposed to meet saying he had a family emergency.
He also used an emoji in literally every single text, which maybe it’s just me, but I find that weird. The part that really caught me off guard (that I didn’t answer) was out of the blue calling me sweetheart (just over a week of talking). I’m excited to meet him, but we’ve been talking for less than two weeks and, I feel off that we haven’t met, only text once/twice a day and he’s calling me sweetheart now? I don’t know. Is something off?
Quick Note: I see a lot of comments about AI, and I assume that’s true. He did let me know that he doesn’t speak English well - but didn’t mention AI or translator, but now I’m wondering if he runs every single text through AI, will we be able to even have a conversation?
