Maybe I should join a dating site, I really have not been actively looking.
My advice is for you to take a long vacation in a tropical place and stay off the dating market for at least a year. I think you will benefit from doing you for a little bit instead of dating. You are giving me the impression you want to jump into another relationship as soon as possible.

Or he wasn't that interested. Let it go.

He could be trying to spare her feelings but she doesn't seem to have gotten the hint. Hard to say because she keeps telling us shes attractive. Maybe shes just not attractive to him though!

LOL. She is just too horny for this sex machine. Hey we ain't stopping you. Do this where you slip and whoops you accidentally land in his penis trick.

Update us what happened.

Seriously.

Ivette, you are reading WAY too much into your observations of him.

"That tells me he's responsible"? All that is just fantasy, supposition and speculation on your part. You don't really know him, but you know what you'd LIKE him to be.

You are setting yourself up for lingering heartbreak brought on by YOU. You really need to find a new hangout for a while.

He doesn't want you. That's it.

Ya know ... there's nothing uglier to my gender than a woman who won't take a simple no from a man.

He probably is just turning you down because of the age difference. I'm just a little younger than he is and I have not had the best experiences with women that much younger than me. On the other hand your almost 30 so you have enough life experience that it's not that big of a deal.

I kind of agree with this assessment. You are at the age where you are looking for a serious relationship and family (or it's still an option that's on the table), and he is at the age where he is settled into his life as it is.

He isn't so into you that he wants to throw caution to the wind and date you. And if he's anything like me, he doesn't want to **** where he eats, as it were. You're REALLY excited about this guy, and he's looking for a woman who's only excited about "tonight" - he sees drama at his local watering hole if he gets involved with you.

Makes sense and I can identify, especially at my age. If he was a younger man he would probably just jump her bones and let the cards fall where they may.

If I meet someone and believe that a short term thing will end badly for either one of us (for a variety of reasons) I find its better just to say "no" in the first place. The difficult part is if you are extremely attracted to them. Keeps the drama in everybodies life to a minimum though.


"He's a jerk Or is he??"
From the information given I would say probably not.

Went to the pub after work tonight (not to meet him, just to relax) he shows up around 9pm when I was getting ready to leave. First thing he did was buy me a drink, which really got me excited..he sat right near me too (The place was dead, plenty of seats)

We talked for a couple of hours, maybe I moved too fast...but I asked him if one evening we could just go out and have dinner in a quieter place. I told him I really enjoyed his company and wanted to explore that further. He came right out telling me he didn't think that it was a good idea us being "regulars" in this place and on top of that he said I could do better.
When a man tells you that, believe him. He knows himself better than you know him.
