Maria,

He puts out memes because talk (memes) are cheap.  He may *think* he would want someone close but in reality and subconsciously he is still scared/damaged.

People like being virtual because it is removed from real, face-to-face life where it can be messy.  Real life is not smiling memes and cute gifs.  Reality is not where  some people like to hang out in for the virtual world is safer, non-committal, and not as demanding emotionally and physically .

I understand there is that hope and expectation in finding someone who really seemed to get you and there are similarities that resonate.  You don’t really know him.  What he has revealed already is part of the “getting to know you” phase.  Being so emotionally invested and committing at such an early stage of getting to know each other is premature don’t you think?

Time to move on before you get sucked into him more.
