Maria,

I’ll let him take the lead.  If he distanced himself because of you telling him how much you enjoyed seeing him then I’d leave him alone.  I can understand him being spooked if you told him that you were falling for him but you only told him that you enjoyed his company, yes?  It sounds like he is scared of developing a close relationship.

You may only have a virtual friend that can only be comfortable communicating via computer rather than real life.  How old are you two?
