I am very casually seeing this guy (not sleeping with him) we made plans today for later in the week. he then asked to see me tonight, said he'd be in my neighborhood. I told him to either call me or stop by my work, we're just going to hang out. I got off work a half hr ago, am home and have not heard a thing. Im thinking another half hour and I'll just go to bed. Irritated. I don't want to call him as he was supposed to be in touch with me. Comments?

That's really not a date. If you're unwilling to call him to find out what's up, how can you possibly be irritated? Nothing was determined. A date is, "I'll pick you up at your house at 10PM". What you're describing is some nebulous "hanging out" crap that may never occur.

If it was me, I'd just go to sleep.

No. Sounds like you did have plans, but they were nebulous. However, if I know guys, that is still a plan in their head, and if he calls and you say you've gone to sleep, then he will get miffed because he thought you had plans.

What I'd do if I liked this guy is call and say, "Yo, I didn't hear from you, so I'm going to bed."

Right or wrong, it's probably the best course of action.

Next time set time deadlines and these things wouldn't be confusing.

I`ve heard that one before..."I`m in the neighborhood."
Or..."I just thought I would drop by."
Use your own judgement!

It's casual. It's not really a date if you're just hanging out.

If it was an actual date, you might want to call him in case there's something wrong, or he should call you to tell you that he's going to be late.

Either way, I wouldn't worry about it since you're just going to hang out. Go to bed and sleep.

Exactly. He was going to "be in the neighborhood", and you consider that a date? Really?

...........next time tell him you already made plans...............it will only get more casual, then he be saying , got time for a quickie?.............I might be there if I am awake, just leave the door open. Tell him you are to busy , hold out for some thing better..............unless that's what you want...............flag him off.

I wouldn't make such nebulous plans with him like everyone else said or he may get used to it. If you want to go out on a date with him then have him make definite plans. Don't allow him to get too comfortable too soon. And its WAY too soon.
