MidwestUSA Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 Maybe he was expecting you to meet him there. Based on the text convo, this was it. He said he'd be free and asked for the address. It's a sports bar; would you have a problem sitting there from 8:30 till 9 waiting alone? (Or with your brother, etc)? You even said 'we meet in 30 minutes'. It sounds as if the time was set. I'd have gone at 8:45 and split the difference. He's a GUY. You can't get all into the 'but I was waiting for a confirmation text'. He's gonna say 'I said I'd be free, you gave me the address'.
Author Gaeta Posted June 24, 2014 Author Posted June 24, 2014 Nah, he pulled a revenge of the nerds on me. At 6h he tells me he'll be available around 8:30-9:00 to text him an address and ends with I must go now (where ever he was heading to at 6) At 7:30 I text him the sport bar address and got no acknowledgment. At 10:30 I text him you must have a good explanation, good night. No acknowledgment so far we're the following day mid-day. Unless his car or his phone are at the bottom of the seaway at this moment, no good explanation justifies this. I would like to add today is a National Holiday, last night the entire city was partying hard. Parties in every bar and every park. Coincidence he ditched me on that night!
HappyLove Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 Oh well, I guess there was always a reason you never quite fancied him. What a jerk! Sorry that happened. 1

In another thread about dating below our standards I had been severely criticized for saying if you're an 8 and give attention to a 6, it will inflate his head and he'll start thinking he's a somebody. Perfect example.
MidwestUSA Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 Well, you did admit you weren't always nice in your exchanges. Onward!!

Perfect example. I love the argument that all the homely awkward men are the perfect prince but women are too caught up with good looks to appreciate an average guy. The average guys I've come across are the ones who do things like this! 1
isisisweeping Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 So, this guy -a friend- chased me for ages. He was the type to complain about being a nice guy and women liking jerks to his friends. He wrote love letters. He was so sweet. He won me over. We started dating. Then randomly one day, we had plans. He never shows up. He doesn't call or text or respond on Facebook - though he updates his own page with random stuff. Nothing. Then nothing the next day and he blocks me on Facebook. Uhh, okay, so I text him like 5 times about what was going on because I was pissed and thought when we'd been friends for years and dating for a while, more is warranted. (Would have not worried about it if we'd just been on a few dates and hadn't been friends) His response is that he just wants to be left alone - he is okay and not depressed- and I didn't do anything to provoke it. We've not talked since. Biggest passive aggressive craziness I've ever encountered. My going theory is he met someone else and was too big of a pussy to tell me that. Or you know, even cancel our plans so I could make other plans rather than just not show up. I've always liked "nice guys" - I like geeky, smart guys- but I'm about done with it because they in the end act way worse given the chance than the player *******s some of my friends like. 2
