I’m confused after our dinner and mixed signals and now we’re talking again but I don’t know where I stand

With our a.k.a. dinner date last night, he extended it longer, so he he I told him I would pick him up after my shower and he said, I'll meet you there. And I was like what scared and then he said, I'll pick you up not a little different, so we talked had a good time. I told him my trip was paid for and he's like what trip and I was like to the Tiger Zoo. North Carolina and the look in his face because I told him I still loved him. And then I don't know who he talked to, but after he talked to them, he went from calm, collective being at the restaurant to I don't wanna go to the festival with you, I don't wanna go to North Carolina with you, I don't wanna go to the concert with you… dot and I was like. Look, I wanna go to the concert and he's like, fine. You're on your own.I'm like, okay.I have a car, I just need my ticket.We're good.The hotel's taking care of i'm good. Then, we hadn't talked for a whole week. Mutual friend I told her tennessee bound wednesday after work won't be home until friday night. So when I did tell him, I still loved him, then we left it was on a Friday, he went his way, and I had the following for a while. Cause we live almost the same way. And then he called, we talked a little bit. And then hung up the phone. And then we hadn't talked for a whole week cause when I messaged the friend of ours mutual friend. I should say on Tuesday and I told her Tennessee bount Wednesday after work. And then he pops online after being offline for like 2 hours. He pops online pops back off and he literally signs out of everything. When he's on Facebook, he'll walk into everything. He'll put his whole email address and the whole password in manually, like no saving. So it take a minute for him to get on Facebook and whatnot. So I still didn't talk to him. We had no conversations Saturday. Cause Friday would have been a whole week. Not talking Saturday, he comes in to my job lingers, cause he's usually out of there sooner than later cause he goes to the gym at 11 o'clock. No later than 1115 has his bag of trash in his hand and sees me putting my order in the. Register, and I go over to the manager and tell her, I need her thumbprint to get my crew mail so on the way back from that, I was getting ready to go to the bathroom. And he was by the door trash, can. It's how the trash can is located. It's by the the door and he was like, hey, dork, how's it going? And I told him, I just got back from Tennessee, and we were talking. He's talking about the grandbaby, and the trip to arkansas,. When I told him that I just got back from Tennessee last night. He's like, why did you go? I said, because I could then I showed him pictures after he got done talking in Tennessee, then I showed him a picture of me and a dress, and he goes, what's that for and I was like, that's just what I wore Thursday, and then we've been pretty much talking since hey. Will initiate, I'll initiate depending and the day. So last night at dinner, he was telling me about his health issues, and he's kind of scared, which is okay, I asked him if he needed me to take him to the doctor he said, no, he figured it out. And I was like, okay, he was like, in plus you have to work in the mornings anyway, and that's when my appointment is. He is like I asked mom and she says she couldn't do it. And he didn't want to ask her, and there's no way he would be able to drive that early in the morning, with his sleep schedule. Him being up that early is scary cause of his brainwaves. So he was like, uncle jim's gonna take me. So last night was a good positive step.In my opinion. I got sit home a 1 hour early and took a break for a 1 hour. Because they don't like my overtime well. Tell your managers to get their stuff together. And I wouldn't have to be there 6 days. A week and have overtime. At least a good note. The owner of the restaurant Kyle. I was like, look, I'm growing up. And he thought I said, showing up and he goes, you do more than show up, he recognized what I do there.And so they need to figure it out, because I can't scoop, I feet, no longer, I gotta have a pay, raise, cause.Actually.I am making less money an hour now than I did.As a crew trainer.

There is more heat in these cards than drama, which tells me something about where this actually is versus where your mind goes with it. **Nine of Wands reversed** in the past position shows someone who has been guarding themselves heavily — but that guard is lowering now. Not gone, but softening. The week of silence, the signing out of everything, the careful distance — that was a wall, and it has started to come down on both sides. **Temperance** in the present is the key card here. This is not a passionate reunion or a final resolution. It's a slow, careful blending. He shared his health fears with you. That is not nothing. Temperance doesn't rush — it lets things combine at their own pace. Dinner lasted longer. Conversation resumed. That is the alchemy doing its work. **The Lovers** shows what is forming beneath the surface — a choice point. Not about whether he loves you or doesn't. A choice about alignment: whether this relationship fits who each of you actually *are* right now, not who you were. The question in this card is not "does he feel it?" but "can this integrate into real life without forcing?" You are doing the right thing by staying steady — going to work, going to Tennessee, knowing you have your own car and your own ticket. That groundedness is what allows Temperance to work. Keep that.

What stands out in your story isn’t chaos so much as two very different rhythms trying to land in the same place. When I pull the situation into a tarot lens, the energy feels like Two of Pentacles territory — not indecision in a dramatic way, but someone juggling more than he can hold while still trying to keep you in his orbit. His shifts aren’t random; they follow pressure. When he feels overwhelmed, he distances. When he feels safe or curious, he steps toward you again. The movement between you right now is workable because neither of you has fully closed the door. But the momentum is coming from the moments when you stay steady in yourself — like taking your trip anyway, showing him your life didn’t go on pause. That gave him space to return without feeling cornered. If you want this connection to grow, keep doing what you did there: stay rooted in your own plans, your own needs, your own pace. That’s what draws him toward you without triggering his retreat.

Alright honey, I pulled cards on this mess. Here's what they're telling me. **You — Seven of Cups.** You're seeing a whole buffet of possibilities with this man. Dreams, hope, "what if." But not all of those dishes are real. Some are just mirages. **Him — Page of Cups, reversed.** Emotionally, he's a kid who doesn't know what he wants. He feels things but shuts them down. The hot-cold, the signing out of everything, the "I'll meet you there" switch-up — textbook fear of his own feelings. **The connection — Six of Cups reversed.** You two are stuck looping in the past. That "I still love you" confession? It landed, but he's not ready to meet you in the present with it. **The challenge — Eight of Wands reversed.** Communication is jammed. Mixed signals, delayed reactions, him running off to talk to someone and coming back cold. Nothing's flowing straight. **The potential — The Sun, reversed.** Here's the kicker. The Sun reversed means the warmth and clarity you *could* have is being blocked — by him, not you. He's scared of his own health issues, scared of needing you, scared in general. Four out of five cards are reversed, sweetheart. That's a lot of stuck energy. He shows up, he lingers, he calls you "dork" — but he bolts the second it gets real. You deserve someone who stays in the room, not someone who signs out of everything when feelings get too close.
