Need advice on a relationship

Tiffany

So I’ve been seeing this guy for a couple months, we met online... I started the chat but he was the first one to give out his phone number. He has a 3 year old and works from home. He lives with his mother who is suffering from Alzheimer’s. None of which bothers me. However in the 2 months we have been seeing each other we have been in 3 actual dates the rest have been at his place playing videogames (which I’m a nerd and don’t mind on occasion). But all he ever wants to do is hang out. I have to pretty much beg or demand to go out. I don’t want to pressure him because he had a lot going on but I have dated much, I’m 29 and have only recently started because at this point in my life I really want someone to spend time with. I just feel like I’m the one always initiating conversation via text or the one asking to see him. He doesn’t actively seek to spend time with me. Am I seeing something that isn’t there? He says he likes me but he doesn’t try to show it. I need some advice. Am I wasting my time? I almost broke it off once already because he didn’t want to make time for me in his life and told him he had to make more of an effort. We went out and he was good for like 3 days of communicating then back to days of radio silence and not trying to plan any time to see me.
