Dating app

Hi All,
So i use dating apps from time to time tinder etc.
From my history i have never really had a spark with anyone on it.
So two nights ago i got chatting to this really really cool guy who was totally my type.
We spoke about meeting up.

Basically i ****ed up last night when chatting to him.
We had a misunderstanding over something and now he wont reply.
I messaged him again the following morning but he didn't reply and no he was blocked me.

I am really annoyed over the situation.
If it was a guy that i wasn't really interested in i wouldn't of cared.
I know this story probably sounds really petty.

Does anyone have any advice on how to resolve this?

You haven't spoken to this guy though, have you?

He's blocked you, you can't resolve it. You just need to forget it and move on.

This is a 2 day old non-thing, it really shouldn't be affecting you to the point you feel you need to post here about it. Maybe step away from the app?

If he blocked you over a small misunderstanding, is that really someone you'd actually want to meet and date in person?

Life is too short to be spent coddling oversensitive people. Don't mind him and move on.

You also don't appear to have even spoken to the guy. So to have decided after just 2 days of messaging that you had a connection is stretching things beyond credibility. Online dating is not for the thin skinned and that applies to this guy as much as to you. The mind boggles as to how he came to block you over a misunderstanding. As Wiggle has said, if he's that sort of person in real life, would you really want to date him?

I think that's a little unfair. The op hasn't clicked with anyone before and now they have are upset it's ended before it even began. It's disappointing. Maybe she just wants to vent, put down in writing how it made her feel.

There will be others, op. Don't take it to heart. You never know, this was possibly a blessing in disguise and first time rejection can sting. Don't take it too personally. Blocking sounds quite immature for a misunderstanding.

It seems unlikely that this guy sauntered off over a misunderstood joke or a typo or whatever OP. Unless you told him something absolutely outlandish??
Its more likely that he just lost interest or was chatting to a different girl(probably several) he was more into. Think about it. He could have bothered to reply and set the record straight easily enough but chose not to.

Its a punch in the gut when its someone you feel the spark for but there's nothing you can do realistically.

The land of internet dating is a fickle one OP. The people in it are mercurial. Someone you're not into at all will pursue you relentlessly/Someone you long for will blow hot and cold and everything in between and outside. You can't change that. Without sounding patronising, the only thing you can do is grow a thicker skin and learn to quickly sort the wasters from the genuines. Behind every disappointment is another opportunity so don't lose sleep dwelling on the failed attempts.

All the best OP.
