Am I overreacting?

I’ve been talking to a guy for almost two weeks now but we’re not at the dating stage, just getting to know each other. Everything was fine at the beginning, we texted a lot as well as talked on the phone for long hours. Last weekend he got so busy with work, mother’s day and a birthday party which I understand but ever since then we haven’t been communicating much. He’s the one who asked to take me out and spend time with him. He seems like a great guy and everything it’s just the lack of communication which scares me and makes me think we won’t get any further. I just asked him if he really wants to take me out.

Now that I think about it I should’ve waited a few days or so to see if he would message me but do you guys think it was ok for me to do so?

Since you asked, no. It wasn't right. That is, if he's a man who doesn't appreciate undue pressure from a woman. You're already at "lack of communication' with a guy you haven't even gone out with. Sorry. But that's a big red flag.

I don’t think I’m pressuring him. I’ve been laid back I give him space I don’t message him it’s just this one time I needed confirmation so I asked

@FlowerchildK16 Older man perspective? You're 18-21. This is the kind of thing you don't want to sweat to much. When it's right it happens organically. When it's not you can't push it. That's not the right jumping off point.
