Yeah to say you will call back in ten minutes and then text four days later..yeah cut him off. Especially since you don't have anything invested in him.

Agreed.

Now, if he called her the next day and said "sorry, I fell asleep last night after I hung up with you", I'd cut him some slack.

Hmmm... he fell asleep for 4 days huh. Maybe he's a distant relative of Rip Van Winkle?

I concur. It would be one thing if he fell asleep and called or texted when he woke up--even if it was the next day. But he basically brushed you off for four days. I am not saying he's a bad person because of it, I just don't think he's that interested and probably not worth the frustration he's causing you.

Surprisingly, I thought I was going to get a bunch of responses saying "Damn, you're cold as ice." "Give the guy a chance." "Hell yeah, that's unrealistic...it was only 1 time!"

But the older I get the more I feel like I can sense out certain things in people, and that just gave me the impression he's not as serious about finding someone as I am (or just not that way with me at least). It's not to say he's a bad person, I just 'date differently'. I will invest the time it takes to get to know someone so we can get to the point where we have enough information to determine whether or not we're compatible for a relationship. I believe that takes good communication skills, respect and follow-through. That's just where I'm at right now.

Just to clarify, I'm not frustrated. I honestly didn't care if I heard back from him or not. I was willing to meet him this weekend...or not at all. Its just that when he text messaged me I took that as an opportunity to ask what happened because I did want to give him the benefit of the doubt (maybe something happened?). But the explanation was so lame I was thinking "whatever man" when I read it lol. So now I'm basically done (with him). No biggie, it's just how it goes sometimes I guess.

It's the 4 days thing. In 4 days he couldn't bother?

Well, they're your expectations so it doesn't matter if others see it as being bitchy or not.

I don't think I would personally be that upset over it.

Why did he send you a picture of himself. That's the thing that would kind of bother me.

Maybe he's a raging meth addict and was on the way down from a 7 day stretch of staying awake and getting high. Geez, cut the guy some slack.

Um, yeah. Why did he send a pic?

I'm guessing it's because he wants a complement. At least that's the impression I'm getting from him. He wants me to say "Wow, you're looking great today!" or "Nice pic handsome " Or something along those lines. Then he could follow up with "Aw, you're too sweet. So how about one of you? "

Last time he text msg'd me he asked for one from me (even though he met me online and I have about 10 pictures on my profile). I declined. I was thinking, "You want more pics? Really?" And he has about 20 up of himself. Sending unsolicited pics is just a tad annoying to me, but hey, I guess I get annoyed easily. *shrugs*
