Also, some have a hard time saying no to women.

It's a good practice to always keep in mind that words are just words until there's an action to back it up.
Yes this is true.

If the guy flaked, then that just sucks. I'm sure it's happened to most of us at some point. You have every right to be angry, but once you wake up the next day, just move on. We meet a lot of people in our lives and it's not worth it to get worked up over one who's pretty insignificant.

As for a reason, cold feet seems most likely. Some people simply can't walk the walk. Maybe the whole thing becomes too "real" once it's time to go from texting/emailing to talking in person.
Well, he was supposed to tell me when he's free so we could actually set up a time

But he won't answer my questions. Or tell me his schedule Or hold himself accountable to me

Because that would make it seem like I have too much control or importance or accountability in his life. He just wants to treat me however he pleases and thinks I'll always come running back to him.

Not anymore loser. (And funny that's exactly what he is because he's losing out, on me! ha. )

Ever since I met him, it has been a gigantic investment in my time and my energy. Me being adjusting and kind and loving and sincere... All for this dumb*** loser

I am so angry. I cannot wait for it to passover from hate to insignificance. I even want revenge. But it's not worth it to contact him or have anything to do with him anymore. A closed chapter.

Also, I really like the bolded part in the above post.

Perhaps it is this part of your vocabulary that is not appealing?

do not make time for people who cannot make time for you.
there is no inner relationship to be had when you're the one calling all the shots. its a one man band that will leave you tooting on your own flute in the end.

What is up with that?

Just stringing the girl along, keeping her around as back up? Or making sure her interest is still there to suit the guy's ego?

I'm so freaking confused. And angry.

Dating advice is so simple. Respect yourself, tell him about your concerns, and if he can't respect that, then drop him. On to the next one. I mean if he can't make time for you, then how can things ever possibly work out?

The thing is, I have sent him signals that are hot and cold... love and hate...

But honestly though, if he doesn't want me enough to make time for me, I wouldn't want someone like that even if I could somehow get him.

Does any man or woman want a lukewarm half-hearted partner? Who doesn't express love or reciprocation and always leave the other person feeling empty and insecure about the relationship?

That doesn't sound like fun to me.

Maybe there is some other delicate and nice way I could have approached this to make things work out. But right now, it is what it is. Over, dead, finished, gone, expired, no more.
