Thanks again for all your comments.I do see where you are coming from now on many angles.
So I guess in an ideal world for you would be someone that understands you, lets you make all the decisions and decides when you meet and how often etc and just accepts whatever you have to offer, when your offering it and not hassle you? (and im not implying from a selfish point of view, just trying to understand)
Would you then be happy with that?

My guess.
This would seem to be the reasonable way to act in such a case indeed. But It's not a matter of faulty logic, or lack of tact. When overwhelmed, one's thoughts tend to be more 'flighty'. Hence the 'keep coming back after a while', which he probably does after he feels comfortable again and remembers that he actually wants the relationship.[/quote]

Yeah I get that totally.
So is it better to leave him be until he surfaces again or try to draw him back when he retreats?

Leave him be, but it could be that he will never get in touch again unless you do it. Let some time pass before you do it.

Thanks under ice.
Why would he possibly not get in touch again until I get in touch with him?
