Resolved Question

I HAD A ONE NIGHT STAND AND NEED YOUR HELP!?

I met him at a party and got drunk and went home with him and had sex. We had sex again in the morning. He texted me later that day to say hi. I replied. He called me a few days later, and I said I was surprised he called me as I thought it was a drunken one night thing. He said he was surprised that I said that. He said he was going away and we exchanged email addresses. I emailed him and he replied, then I emailed him asking him a few questions about himself, and now silence.
I have not heard from him in over a week.
I don't get it. Can anyone help?

what kind of questions did you ask him? Maybe he realized he's scared about what could happen if you come to know too much about him (maybe he doesn't think he'll be good enough or something), or maybe he was offended/hurt that you originally thought it was just a one-night stand...because he was the one who initially wanted to keep contact with you.

In this day and age we like to think that we are sexually liberated, and we sometimes typecast one night stands as "physical" exercise, like running or tennis.

Nothing can be further from the truth.

Almost no one ever talks about the powerful emotional bonds that can also occur.

You're lonely and someone is paying attention to you.

So you feel "special", you've shared a connection with someone at a very intimate level. This is quite natural.

"Don't get so emotional" or "Where did those feelings come from?" (or silence) are offered by the insensitive, coarse individuals we cross paths with that make you regret the experience. Therein lies the risk of one night stands.

In future, get to know someone first before having sex and you won't have questions like this driving you crazy.

it was nice of him to call you, and nice that the two of you had a few text and email exchanges, but if you don't hear from him again, it's one of those things that you have to let go.

i got a huge crush on a one-night stand and continued to see him from time to time and he actually told me, finally, that he couldn't really see me as girlfriend material because of the circumstances of our first encounter. he said, 'if i'd met you at a museum, looking at a picture hanging on the wall, it would be different' some men are just like that and we have to accept it and learn from it and move on.

it seems to me that he is not willing to open up on you!! Perhaps, for him it was really a drunken one night thing which he might have liked and wanted some more. But now he sees you asking personal things an area where he might not be willing to go to!!
Give yourself some time, don't make any ideas that might hurt you ltr on.

In my opinion genuine relationships are not based on sex. Love does not come from sex. Someone who had a one night stand with you will not fall for you over that drunken encounter. That's not how love works. Let it go and free yourself from worry because there are so many other people out there that will value your worth, and encourage you NOT to get involved in the ONE NIGHT STAND dimension... with love.

He got laid. Men can't multi task, attention wise. If she's rubbish, he'll be back in touch

You sound as if you liked this guy.

But leave it.

Find someone decent- don't ask questions too early.

Do you want him now...because he is not calling?
I wonder if you will ever do the one night stand thing again...doesn't sound very sexy to me.

There are millions of other men out there. I would move on and live your life by doing the activities that you usually do. If your not special enough for him then you deserve better. I hope you heart settles and you find someone else soon. :)

.. it was exactly that. A one night stand.. the rest is just that.. a couple of " heys, how are ya's, ya that's cool.. okay bye " ..

... so move on.. and don't be so easy next time. That's why one night stands don't work.. you will most likely be a booty call for this guy from now on.. but that's about it.
