Hi, I’m male and am currently stuck on how to proceed with a situation. I’m bisexual and out. I’ve been talking to this guy for almost 2 months, however I’m always the one to initiate the conversation 90% of the time. I genuinely want to get to know this guy on a more intimate level, so I’ve asked him out a couple of times but he always tells me the same thing that he has to check with his parents and I respect that because he’s only out to a handful of people including a few of his siblings and his mom. However he’s yet to tell me what they’ve said. He asked me to come to a quinceañera last week but I had no idea how to get there and he carpooled with some friends, so he couldn’t give me a ride. Now I’ve been single for 3 years. My last relationship messed me up mentally and emotionally because of lies, cheating, and manipulation. I built walls around me (figuratively) so I wouldn’t have to feel vulnerable again. I have only recently wanted to try my hand at a relationship once more, but it’s beginning to feel like my last relationship, in the sense that I’m the only one putting effort into it. I’ve gotten used to being alone and enjoy it most times but I’d like someone to wake up next to. I’m just wondering if I should continue to initiate the conversation almost every time or should I start looking for a romantic partner elsewhere? I understand that as humans we’re usually busy throughout the day, but even while I’m working I make sure to message him and ask about his day or how he’s feeling. It seems the only time he messages me is LATE at night usually between 11pm-1am. Thanks in advance for the advice

Update: We are no longer talking, he couldn’t decide if he wanted a relationship, and I decided I’m not gonna sit and wait for him to make up his mind. We ended on good terms
