Am I wrong?

In my 30s and only have had 1 bf. So I have minimal experience with men. I don’t know if my expectations are too high….

A year ago, dated a guy but things were bad timing. I broke it off but we remained friends. Lost contact and he recently reconnected with me early January.

He’s been calling me a lot and tries to see me when he’s in my area even if it’s for 10 minutes.

Everyone tells me he likes me and sounds like he wants to rekindle but I feel like he’s not trying enough. People are telling me I have to take the initiative but I feel like I’m begging at this point.

When we dated, I actually took the initiative by telling him I liked him. I confessed first, I made the first move on the kiss….etc. he’s also 15 years older and told me that because of the age gap he wouldn’t have ever made the move if it wasn’t for me.

People are telling me he’s testing the waters, scared of rejection since I broke it off, etc etc.

To me it just seems like he doesn’t like me enough.

I’ll just break it down by scenario:

#1: one time he called me and told me he was going to call me earlier and ask if I wanted to come with him to a work event with him. It was a cocktail function and I’d be his plus 1. I asked “why didn’t you? I would have gone” he was surprised and said really?? Here I thought he was testing the waters to see if I would have gone.

#2: he called me to ask if I wanted to meet up to eat tacos at this famous taco truck in LA. I said yes! Ok things are good here

#3: he called me to say that he had a tattoo session coming up and maybe I should come I said sure but I actually got the flu and couldn’t make it. Session was going to be 5 hours why would he want me there?

#4: he called to say he was eating near my house. Was I supposed to say “can I come?” He could have said he come down, I’m here. He wasn’t being direct. Then he said he would be going to Walmart after. I said ok maybe he’s in a rush. He called again to ask how to get to the most Local Walmart. Could have googled it? My friend said he was hoping I’d say “let me go with you”

Again he could be direct and I’ll go!

Idk but I feel like I’m on his time at his convenience and if he really wanted he’d ask me on formal dates. We could go to the park, get ice cream, go to an arcade, etc.

Also I live with my parents. My dad is disabled so I’m helping pay rent as he’s unemployed. He made a comment saying he’d wish I lived on your own. “I would literally just go and cuddle you. Umm???? So are you saying you wish I was alone to have sex? What does me living with my parents interfere with going out?

He made an indirect comment saying that me living with my parents translates to still having to ask for permission. My parents let me date. I would never reject an invitation and he knows that. He could pick me up and we can go to places. Him not setting an actual time is bothering me. I may do plans with friends and will not be available whenever he wants to. He’s told me straight up he’s not the type of man who makes plans! So what is the point of pursuing me….
