butwhytho Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 This might be a weird question to ask opinion on, but I met a guy on a dating app. We started texting. Then he asked to talk on the phone. We talked for literally almost 2 hours and everything was great, I really liked him and he seemed to be really into me as well. He asked to meet in 2 days. We set a time etc. he texted me the day before we were supposed to meet to see if we could meet up a day sooner. I agreed. He said he’d text later in the day to confirm plans. I said ok and joked that I’m a lil nervous to meet up Bc of all the horrible online dating stories. He texted back that it won’t be bad. I just left him on read, figuring he’d text me later in the day to confirm our plans like we talked about. The whole day passed and he never texted me again and did not text the next day either, when we originally supposed to meet. Wtf? Can someone explain this to me lol
Zahara Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) Nothing weird about it. It's such a common thing on OLD. People are flaky. Don't get so caught up with the initial "connection" when you first start communicating. People are usually on their best impressive behavior in the beginning so take the "connection" with a grain of salt. He is on a dating app and dating/talking to other women. He probably changed dates because he was juggling. Likely left you hanging because he may have met someone else. Edited August 29, 2018 by Zahara 1
Orokotikki Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 He flaked, he's a flake. Unless there was a death in the family or something move - but don't reach out to him - he stood you up, he showed himself to be rude, and inconsiderate. Could also be beginning of mind game manipulations (on the extreme end). Block and move on... There's better to be found.
dranoel Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 Because he's never met you, he probably feels little responsibility for following through on his word, and little pressure to provide excuses when he does.. and he would also have no fear of the fallout that could happen after either of these failings as he has nothing to lose at this point in your "relationship". At this point, I wouldn't think too much on it. I would send a message asking if he'd like to meet, and if he agrees go along with the plans. This time text again closer to the meeting time (a few hours before) confirming you still have plans. If he doesn't respond to your next message, move on. If he flakes again, move on.
