So I’ve met this guy for 2 times, both times were just casual drinks and talk. After the second date, he said he likes me a lot and ask if we could see a movie together. I said yes then he set up a date that’s almost 2 weeks apart. He and I live 10 miles away, and he didn’t mind to go out grab drinks later at night for the first 2 times cause he “wanted to connect soon”(what he said)

We kept texting and he would suggest places to go and even suggested lunch at his work, but again, no set date. Just “ one of these days.”

I started to think he didn’t really like me that much , and this might be a case of stringing along. If he liked me, he would want to see me sooner or have more concrete plans.

I don’t mind if he didn’t feel it. But I’d hate it if being led on. I mean, do people tell their lukewarm date” I like you a lot?”

Thoughts?

Sounds like he might be married.

DOnt contact him, let him contact you, and next time he suggests something, ask "what day and time?". If he hems and haws or wont be specific, just dont answer him, he isnt serious. I think he is stringing you along, or using you for the ego boost.

It’s so sad... who the blips say “ I like you a lot” when he actually didn’t feel it? Who lies about stuff like that?

I wouldn't try to analyze that statement. People say things sometimes without putting a lot of thought into their implications. I would just discount it altogether and consider how you felt about him otherwise.

Unfortunately, after going out on a couple of dates, it doesn't sound like he's all that into you despite his claims to the contrary. When someone wants to be with you they make definite plans and keep them... and they're usually pretty obvious about it.

To me, he's treating you like a back-up option when his other choices run dry. Let him go and find someone better.

Movie date in two weeks? Nah he isn't interested, but wants you on the back burner.

Ouch! That really hurts...
I don’t know why I keep running into guys that would put me on back burner? What’s wrong with me? I remember reading a post here by a girl saying that guys she met would either go silent or tell her no chemistry. I didn’t even get honesty from guys like that.

It sounds like you keep believing what they say when their actions dont match their words.
Also there is something youre doing or saying that is turning these guys off. Could be anything.

Omg I feel so stupid cause I said yes to the date and kept on communicating with him enthusiastically afterwards. I can’t live with myself for being so stupid and I must be a laugh stock now in his head.
