It happens, I try not to take it personally.
Rough. Well third time luckily quite literally applies to you, Jet. Good luck in future endeavours, there are good guys out there, even if they ain't common where you are!
It's easier for most people to just FADE AWAY and not take someone's calls anymore if there is no interest. That avoids confrontation
Well to be honest the type of men you describe is exactly what I came across on the dating sites, they hid behind the screen and couldn't even be honest via this medium. That's one of the reasons I stopped bothering with those sites anymore, I mean they could at least reply and say 'no thanks, sorry....etc' or whatever. There's other women on here too that had men with your mentality, just flake out on them and they went on actual dates (I didn't) but they still did this type of thing. It just seems so childish to do it that way. There's no confrontation, you're on the computer and/or telephone. Come on.

I was talking about once you already meet face to face and not feeling it.
Well it's happen to me. Went on a date with a female and told her to call me when she arrived home and instead of calling when she arrived home she just sent a text saying "HOME". And when I responded back to her she never responded back ever again.
What was strange was why did she feel the need to let me know she arrived home safely if she had no plans to talk to me again? I could care less if she made it home lol
Trimac many just don't want to deal with it. So they just fade out. I had one who didn't want to continue dating so he told me he took on 3 shift as the pizza delivery man. A friend found him at the bar when he was "supposedly working".
