<human>: Can you condense the text into a few key points?

We've been seeing each other (no talk about exclusivity yet) for slightly more than two months now. He's given me some positive signs that the feelings mutual although nothing conclusive. 

Examples of positive signs: 

- Wanting to hang out even if sex wasn't on the cards
- Consistent contact
- Telling me that he misses me 
- Asking me about holiday plans
- Helping me out with job hunting

I told him over text that I'm starting to develop feelings for him but I didn't use the L-word. It's been three days and he still hasn't replied nor acknowledged the text. I know for a fact that he's still alive and not critically ill in the hospital. In fact his last seen online time was 2 hours ago. 

Today I couldn't resist from sending him another text saying that I would have respected that if he at least told me that we can't continue seeing each other because I caught feelings. (Instead of pulling a Houdini).

How should I have handled the situation? What to do when the object of your affection pulls the disappearing act after you've basically bared your soul?
<bot>: The guy I'm seeing for 2 months stopped talking to me after I told him that I have feelings for him. How should I have handled it?
