Maybe he just wants affirmation/interest and not a relationship - i.e. he confirms you are attracted to him then backs away - like giving himself an ego stroking. Maybe find a less self-centered guy.
This is so irritating on many levels. It's such of waste of my time especially when it sounds like he is on the verge to set up a date and time and doesn't.
how many times has a guy asked you out, one that you were getting to know, an perhaps hit it off with, and YOU turned him down?

very true. how many times have YOU set up a date with a guy you were interested in, that seemed interested in you?
dating is a two way street. and sometimes you get stood up, or you get turned down. a lot of us guys have been shot down so much, anubis is holding a spot on the river boat for us.

Yes, this. More guys are rejected by women than vice versa. If I'm interested, I'll ask a woman out. She says no, I've tried. This is 2017, people. If you're a woman, and you're interested, for Pete's sake, ask the Guy out!

Exactly! Times have changed. Not only is is now OK for a woman to initiate date requests, men are starting to expect it. Men are getting tired of always taking risks, always doing most of the work, always being on the receiving end of rejection. No wonder the "women have it easy!" belief is so widespread. Heck, I had people tell me back in college, that women will never call first. Wrong!
Dating instruction manuals, mainstream and otherwise, are now putting out maxims that if a woman never initiates contact, she doesn't like you. And in my experience, that's been true. Every woman who was interested in me contacted me first at least once. Usually "how are you?" and such, but occasionally "hey, wanna go to [place] sometime?" (Except my first girlfriend: I had to initiate everything with her, which makes me question her interest/attraction level in retrospect.)

This ain't no one way street for me to get played again.
Doesn't sound like this guy is keeping you from being lonely, though.
