I don't know about this guy, but he calls me up so we are talking on the phone, he's driving, and he says, "I'm suppose to meet this woman I met online tonight, looks like 10 mins late already." (He hasn't even arrived at his destination at this time)

 

He mentioned something about not really thinking it's going to pan out anyhow, but he's not going to have any expectations when he arrives.

 

By the end of our conversation, he said he's there at the destination and by the time he's 20 mins late.

 

He never calls her to tell her he's going to be late and even says, "Oh well, if she's curious as to my whereabouts, she has my number, har har har!"

 

Funny, he is always letting his friends (including myself) know his whereabout pretty specifically when we're all going to meet somewhere. But with an online date, he doesn't give them one respect to give a courtesy call.

 

I think he's become so complacent in dating that he's almost purposely sabotaging his first dates.

 

Agree? thoughts on this?

He sounds self-destructive to me. He is deliberately sabotaging his own success.
