I was seeing this guy from school. After he went away for a couple of weeks we didn't see each other and things were different when he returned. I accepted that we were no longer seeing reach other even though it wasn't said. We have been friendly with each other due to circumstances.

Anyway I was sick for a week and came back to a ton of homework. I asked his guy for help with a difficult assignment. He said he would help me after class. However after class he tells me he has to pick up his brother and cousin fom the airport and couldn't help me after class. It's not like I was asking for a commitment or even a date. I just needed some help!

Well...

Is the same guy who isn't your boyfriend? Just ignore him from here on out.

And he's the ONLY person you could have called. There's NO one else that could help you. While I have been only friends with many a man, this whole thing sounds like a cry for attention from him. Sort of an underhanded way about it.

Young lady, he's not being a jerk at all. Clearly, he's not interested in dating you. He did offer to help, but I would assume that he either forgot about his brother needing to be picked up at the airport, or it just came up. He has a more serious relationship and commitment toward his brother than you. In dealing with people, the best policy is to assume they are being honest and remember you are not the center of the universe. Just ask someone else in class for help.

Your post is coming off as petulant and bratty.

This guy doesn't owe you a thing.

I don't know of any man that would risk getting held captive, cornered and interrogated. He's as normal as they come.

Sorry small town girl. Your homework falls into the category of your responsibility. He should not have agreed to help if he didn't have the intent to do so however it's your responsibility to take care of you. His excuse was not cool but he's not a jerk. You should have moved on a long time ago when you two stopped interacting.

If this is making you upset, you shouldn't ask him for anymore favors or anything else. It's time to make some more friends in class or go to the professor's office hours.

We didn't stop interacting. In fact we still talk and sometimes he even comes up to me and initiates it and even flirts. But anyway it was literally 15 min between the time he said he would and then could not. I was not expecting anything but some help and the professor gave the hw to him to give to me in the first place since we were partners on an assignment before.
