Jerk sending me on a run around... (dates, guys, call)

[Joei]

I went out with someone twice, and we were both very much into each other. However, this week he's been acting weird. You know, making excuses like "oh my co-workers, oh a birthday party"...whenever its time to plan a date.

Earlier this afternoon and tonight we had a text message argument because this so called birthday party for another female that he 'forgot about'...he said he was going to. Yet we made plans last Monday to meet today...we havent seen each other in a week. He said we could hang out afterwards. But then he jerks me around, didnt say when, and when I asked he said he was going to a resturaunt and then friends changed their mind and going to a bar....basically just a bunch of confusion **** thats frankly got me pissed the **** off.

So, guess its back to square 1. Everytime I meet a good guy online in this damn state, it never goes anywhere. I try and stay positive, but the excuses start pouring in after date 2 or 3. I didnt even do anything worng? All the time he approached me, he asked when he wanted to see me again, only to act silly.

He makes it seem like its not his fault for keep changing plans tonight because he's with his friends. And that we could hang out afterwards (its already 11 pm) Well I told him, if he cant invite me out like a normal person would...instead of me accepting leftovers, to say LATER!

Doesn't sound like they're good guys if they're all pulling this stunt after a couple of dates. I'd also look to myself to find out if I am somehow contributing to this pattern.

I wouldn't lay all eggs in one basket after one or two dates. I'd keep interviewing or flat out move on in this case. NEXT.

Yeah, your attitude is never the problem as to why things never go anywhere.

Let the OP vent, I do my share of venting, try to offer some helpful words of widsom and let the venting ride itself out

Glad the title was explained a little better in the OP's vent! Whoo!

It's not cool. My last guy did this, too, and it stinks. I'm sorry it happened to you, but don't give up!

Thanks, I just had to call my brother...he knows about all of this guy B.S. that goes on.

I just feel silly for even getting like this. I go into things with a good attitude, and then all of a sudden birthday parties, co-workers, and dead relatives start popping up everywhere

Guess I should get my bearings back together and slow this train down to a halt. Guess I should just continue to ***** out a bit more with some other guys instead of fixating on this jerk...

And no! I didnt mean literal jerk off....get your minds out the gutter!

Two dates is not something to get all upset over or give you claim to someone's time. If he wants a third date, he'll ask for it.

I would just let it go if I were you.
