Did I overreact and ruin things for us?

[Oplimme]

OK.

 

Basically what's happened is, I've been trying to set up a date with a this guy for about three weeks or so. We're both relatively busy people, and he at the moment lacks reliable transportation.

 

Well, we set up a date. But on the night before, he tells me his family is going to a different country, thus, his reliable transportation is gone. He'd rather me travel to him instead.

 

I got kind of annoyed, and told him whatever and fine and I hope he's being genuine about his interest towards me. The night before he was talking all sorts of sweet talk, holding, kissing, blah etc.

 

Now he's suddenly ignoring me? Is this basically the nail in the coffin telling me to go away? Is there any recovery from this? I've sent 4 texts but nothing.

Sounds more like you underreacted. You're offering him a chance to get laid and he can't even get off his a*s and get access to a car. I wouldn't take it too personally, he sounds unmotivated in general.

If only there was a way to get people to get back to you -_-.

It's possible there was a misunderstanding and he may have been surprised at you being annoyed and saying "whatever" rather than just going with the flow and adjusting plans. Maybe he's now wondering the same about you, wondering if you're being genuine in your interest towards him.

 

If you're still interested, instead of continuing to text him, maybe you can call him?

If things are "ruined," he did more than his share to contribute.

To recover from this? What is to "recover?" you never had anything to begin with... He hasn't offered you a thing - so take his "nothing as the something that it is"!
