    He is in his 30's ......

    i asked him on the last date so as not to be playing games.... He is not at all shy and I just feel he is not that into me.... But I was just asking why would he be in contact after the date if he were just going to drop off the face of the earth again and not want to meet up....

    This is an obvious burn. Move on and stop wrecking your head. Believe me if he liked you enough to not dangle you around you'd know about it by now.

    This is the mistake all people make. We dont need to understand eachother. All you need to do is go "does this persons behaviour suit me or the standards that I would like".

    Answer A) Yes
    Answer B) No

    Thats it. There is really no need to complicate things any further and get all hung up about this and that.

    PM me your number and I'll play telephone tag for as long as you like, and make every attempt to get into your smalls necessary ;)

    K-

    That's only half the mistake. It's building on the mistake of believing that all [insert gender of your choice] behave alike and can be understood en masse.

    What's with all the texting??
    Pick up the phone and ring him and have a conversation!
    Then there will be no waiting around wondering if and when he will reply!

    Believe it or believe it not I am not that into him..... The pride is a bit damaged but i know I do not like his behaviour and did make the last 'move'. There is no real harm done. My question was originally why bother staying in touch when you know you are not interested..... Its a very man thing to do. I have mentioned it to girlfriend and they all said they would be straight and say they are not interested in meeting again.

    I think that you need to stay away from him. Look, when most relationships start off, there is a to'ing and fro'ing for a little bit - the chase!!!

    But this is just ridiculous. 9 days? It sounds a bit suss to me. You met him on a site, has it ever occured to you that he might be meeting other people off the site? Its just a possibility.

    In any case, you are not happy with him already so leave it alone. You sound like a nice person so get back out there!

    Why is your pride hurt? Who knows why he didnt contact you. Women do it as well as men you know. You shouldnt focus on this. You are maybe asking "what is wrong with me"? You cant think like this or you will drive yourself demented. He didnt like you. Its a very small opinion from one person in the grand scheme of things. Youll soon figure that out.

    Get the book 'He's just not that into you'...I'm not saying it to be mean but it gives a great insight into men and makes you realise you are worth more than that.

    Onwards and upwards...it's his loss :)

    They might have said that but they wouldn't.


    Everyone says that but if you have only met a couiple of times the vast majority of people just prefer to let it fizzle out quietly rather then actually getting into a 'It was nice meeting you but its not for me etc etc conversation'. Yes it might be only one text, but they might get emotional asking why etc etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,006 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    Yeah you are all right :) I havent contacted him for that reason - I did not really fell like we clicked that night and was not sure about meeting again. Anyway no harm done - am back to 'normal' and the sun is shining :) Enjoy the weekend one and all !!!!!

    Idiot, get in touch. You have been giving him not interested signals, if you like him then do something quick!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,006 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    'I did like him but he has been too hot and cold for me to bother. I have made efforts but dont feel it from him lately.... I have not been cold - I asked him out the last time......'
