Alright - I am just posting to let off some steam. I guess that if I was a calculating b***h who used men for their money and for sex, did not return their phone calls, made them feel like crap and just treated them like s**t all the way around, maybe they would continue to come around.

Instead, I am an honest, hard working single mother who is affectionate, doesn't play head games, is very open and truthful.

You go out several times and each of you have a wonderful time together, call each other as well as text and im one another, you even show up at my office with flowers and then you just drop off the face of the earth? What is a person to think??

Either you are not as single as you have led others to believe or you are just an a**hole!

That IS annoying.

Yeah, why is that??? I agree...but if you treat them like SH!T they will bang your door down. Go figure!

Are you sure he isnt in the hospital somewhere?

Sorry for your dilemma.

Been there too. so sorry.

you can't take disappearing personally...and yeah they're usually not as single as they led you to believe...

Ouch!

Well, if he is I am really, really going to feel like s**t! And boy, will I have some making up to do.

It just makes me not to ever want to date again. This just plain sucks...Not to mention my trust level quickly sinking lower and lower...

i can assume many things on why but i still wouldn't know

been there done that sweetie. I don't play head games, very open and honest as well. The truth is that he might have been using you until he got hooked up with some other girl.
I know it feels like what the heck. Yet I am sure you will find a guy that will not be such a prick.

This happens more often to both men and women than I realized before coming here. I mean, I knew it had happened to me, but now I realize it's not that uncommon. Another reason to hold back emotionally for a while.

what happens when you call him?
move on hes not worth messing yourself up wondering why over

NEXT!

Not so sure about Meg's situation. Maybe he isn't really available or maybe he had second thoughts? or possibly he is impatient and is looking for something on the fast track, and yes maybe he could me in the hospital...

BUT.. not all men want to be treated like **** by a woman. Been there and I will never tolerate that kind of behaviour from a woman. NOR will she ever get it from me. RESPECT. And the fact that if you start a relationship, be sure you want one in the first place.

Please forgive me if this sounds harsh,,, but when people move too quickly they tend not to see the red flags.

Sorry to hear it.

I think that's a big reason why I never let anyone from the internet get close to me any more. Apparently we are all disposable...

Guilty.

It happens on both sides of the gender train. I couldn't tell you how many times I've had to deal with that crap. And I love when they give me that "you make yourself too available" crap, too.

sounds like he had a change of heart maybe.
Sorry for your pain you are going through.
We all have been there, several times.
You are not alone!
