Pretty JMai Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 So, this prior colleague of mine who was also a Facebook friend contacted me a month ago to ask if I was single and whether he should ask me out. I told him I was single at the moment and that it could be fun to hang out. Early on he would frequently text me and we spoke by phone a couple of times. We live in different cities and he had even made plans to come see me. I was flattered by his seemingly sweet gestures. However, over time it felt like he was very hot and cold with his communication with me where he would not call when he said he would and then take long to reply to my text. I finally told him how I felt and what I looked for in a potential relationship via a long email and told him if he wasn't looking for the same, then he should stop contacting me and that I would move on. He then seemed to almost beg me to give him another chance saying he was totally interested in getting to know me better. I ignored him for a bit but after he persistently pursued, I gave in and sent him an email to say ok I'll give 'us' a try but that he should call so we could talk. As expected, he never called. Now I am plain old pissed that he is back to his old ways! I was tempted to send him a FB message to basically tell him off but thought twice about this...better to move on in a dignified manner! I just don't understand guys at all! He wasted my time and completely toyed with my emotions. I should have listened to my gut instincts which told me to run away from the get go...but I think I felt bad for the guy! Honestly, he is not the type of guy I normally am interested in...it just angers me that there are guys like this. I will never speak to this person ever again! What a tool!
Philosoraptor Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Sounds like you were an option, not his priority. Wanted to keep you around just in case, but wasn't looking for a commitment with you.

Author Pretty JMai Posted July 12, 2013 Author Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) That's how I felt when he was being hot and cold, which is why I was looking to move on and told him that. I just let him get into my head when he repeatedly texted me again so agreed to give him another chance. I think I am just upset that he played me for a fool. You know how you get when you want to tell someone off but you are too classy to do so! Just need to vent my frustrations! Looking to see how other people would handle this?
