I said before that I was seeing this guy at work. Then the guy fell and had to go on medical leave. Before that, he started to cancel dates and would tell me he's busy. Then when he came back, he never said anything about going out and I never pushed it. Or he would ask me to go out and never follow through with where and when. Recently, his cousin who also works there told me he had a girlfriend and even told me about the weekend they were spending together.

Yesterday, this co worker and I were working in the same department. I tried to keep my distance. Where we work, it's pretty easy because it's a big department. Anyway, he approached me and asked me if I wanted to go to the new pub that opened down the street from where we work after work. I asked him should he be asking me to go w/ him when he has a girlfriend. He denied having a girlfriend and I told him what his cousin said to me. He said he knew her because she was a friend of his cousin and they hung out a few times but he hasn't known her long. He said she wasn't his girlfriend and it wasn't really working out. He also said he thought I wasn't interested anymore because I didn't contact him anymore.

I think you have your answer right there. He wasn't contacting you because he was seeing her. And he hasn't broken it off yet.

Yikes, you gave him a second chance already. Why give him a third? He is clearly wishy washy about you and a flake. I would avoid and ignore him if I were you.

Sounds to me like he wants to play the field
As much as it hurts- I would move on. You don't deserve to be treated that way.

Giving him another chance after cancelling on you?

Will one of you raise your standards please?

This guy is probably seeing the other woman.
But, maybe he isn't exclusive with her ?

Sounds like he was canceling on you to spend time with someone else way back when.
Now he wants to hang out again ? Do you want to be just friends with him ?
Make it clear it is friends only, and you will NEVER consider him romantically.
I bet a lot of money, he will 'play it cool' at that statement, and then either cancel on the plans last second, or he will not give up on trying to seduce you.

Guys like that don't usually want to be just friends.
