jw90063 Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 I've been talking to this guy(met online, and was going to meet in person soon). He suddenly has found another girl to go out with. He claims it was someone he was already "friends" with, and he apparently ran into her while hanging out with buddies. He dropped a couple of lines like "I'm not the same person I once was". "Normally, I wouldn't just not call someone for week". Well, for like a week he didn't touch base with me. Then he proceeds to tell me "You can do better than me". Why do you think a guy would actually say this stuff to a girl? Does he really mean you can do better and he is admitting he is not a good person, or what is the point of him telling me that? To make me feel better...I mean wtf. I mean even if it doesn't work with this girl he is going to go out with, he said he would still go out with me. I just don't trust him now......I think it might be complete BS.
Rorschach Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 You became a back up plan once he met this other girl. He basically broke up with you. Even being plan B if he comes back I would take him, sounds like a bozo to me.
xpaperxcutx Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 I agree with Rorschach. What's even worse about this guy's behavior is that he tried to play it off so it wouldn't appear like everything was entirely his fault. Good riddance you got rid of him.
Rorschach Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Oh and I meant wouldn't take him, crazy typos and lack of edit button.
ADF Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 "You can do better than me?" Oh please! This guy is a fickle jerk. For whatever reason, he chose to persue this other woman rather than you. Rather than be honest about it, he is trying to cover his butt with a lot of lame excuses and tired old lines. You're well rid of this guy.
EasyHeart Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Welcome to on-line dating. It's a like a shopping mall where you pick people off a shelf if they come in a nice package, and you toss them away as soon as you find someone better-looking.

For whatever reason, he chose to persue this other woman rather than you. Rather than be honest about it, he is trying to cover his butt with a lot of lame excuses and tired old lines. You're well rid of this guy. That "you can do better than me", is like saying "It's not me, its you". Kind of makes you wonder if he thinks he can do better. Probably so. Who knows. Well, I took things slow and wasn't ready to meet(but made it clear the past few weeks I was ready), but he told me he was patient with something that he thought would be very good. Maybe I just waited too long to meet him. I realize other girls come along, but I just thought we were at the point where he would not be interested in anyone else. He said he was only interested in dating me and not to worry he doesn't even meet many women. It also hurt the way he told me what happened. Just like "oh...yeah me and this friend of mine decided to start dating". This was so random. The other week he was just talking about taking me to a particular restaurant, we had a great conversation and then that's where he got real quiet for like over a week. It seems he has a communication issue. He told me a part of him still wants to meet me. It's not even so much that he is going to date this girl, but the fact he was just going to let it go and not even talk to me. Leave me waiting and wondering what is going on. I finally called him, and sure enough it wasn't just me being paranoid. I think i should have taken the hint when he told me the last few girls he was getting to know told him they were scared of getting hurt and quit talking to him. Hmm, wonder why that is.
