There was that guy I met on Saturday where the meet lasted over 3 hours just over coffee. He really seemed interested in me talking about seeing me again, saying I was pretty a couple of times, complimenting me, getting and pushing chairs in and out etc.

Anyway, haven't heard from him since a text right after meeting him. He is the kind of guy I would see one more time just to see if there were sparks, but I wasn't particularly wowed from just meeting him once so I won't attempt to contact him (he seemed to have issues, but I usually give people a second try).

I know you aren't supposed to have dating rules, but I have 3:
1. If he doesn't call within 3 days, HE IS NOT INTERESTED! Do not answer calls after 3 days. If he liked me enough, he would have called sooner.
2. No kissing on the first date especially if it is a first meet.
3. If I am head over heels into someone, then I will be the first one to say that I would love to see them again and discuss making plans.

After all that, I think this guy is pulling a disappearing act on me. Before we met, he called me on the phone daily or emailed me when we didn't.
I really thought he was into me, but I guess I can not read men at all!

Whoah! Exactly! There have been so many job interviews I have had where I really thought they were going to hire me.

maybe the guy has been busy, or maybe you ran him off with your rules, you seem bossy from your post.

I doubt she read him "the rules" on the meeting/date. Seems to me like he's just not interested. I don't think your rules are unreasonable. Just move onto somebody else.

It's a little quick to assume he has issues after one meet.

He has his reasons for not contacting you. But I understand your frustration. It would have been nice if...... fill in the blank. It always sucks when another opportunity doesn't pan out but at least you know the answer sooner then later.

Good luck!

You seem not to be that much into him........so why do you care if he is into you or not?

Ms. Naomi--Could it be something in your personality that is making guys shy away? Something in your conversation skills? Are you too clingy too quickly? I ask this because, from a mans point of view, you certainly have the looks and body part of it down. Also, if you teach young children all day, make sure that once you leave the classroom at the end of the day you switch back to your adult way of communicating. After all, you arent trying to hook up with an 8 year old are you? Good luck young lady.

Maybe his old girlfriend came back, and he is with her again.
