How long on in general do you date someone before discussions of being in a relationship come up?
I find it surprising that after dating the same person for months, all he'd say is "I don't see this going any further". I feel like at that point he should be able more specific on why it didn't work out.
It depends but usually not long. A couple of weeks.
I was really surprised too the last time I was told this. I thought everything was going well and we had plans to hang out that day. Instead he sent me a text and immediately blocked me so I couldn't ask why.
1. Guy is happy, we get to talking, go on a date. He either loses interest after a date or two or he tries to move things further. If it develops into something, he treats me poorly, thinking that I approached him so he has the upper hand.
2. He looks at me like I'm insane
Dont complain about the ones that dont work out. Consider yourself lucky. let it go before you get too involved. It could of gone on and ended really badly.

Yes to all of your final questions.
Is sex an issue? Meaning they want to and you're not ready?
I like traveling, shopping, watching tv, listening to music, going out to eat, movies. Many things.
Said every girl ever.
What do you do that half the block isn't?

Ok I can't tell what, but something happened here. It could be him, it could be you.
Has something similar to this happened at other times?

This could be worth asking yourself (the OP, not levels77). No need to answer it here but ask yourself how that part of your relationships develop over the months after the "honeymoon-phase" is over.
Otherwise it might be as simple as you have to sift through a lot of dirt before you find a diamond, and you just haven't sifted through enough dirt yet.
I'm not sure. Most of them don't get to that stage.
I find that very atypical as most men will want to have sex or be more physical by the 3rd date. Are you showing signs of physical interest like hand holding and kissing by the 3rd date? Do they try to kiss you? How do you respond? Do they try hold your hand? Do you feel comfortable with the physical aspects of relationships in the first couple of weeks of dating?

Probably nothing that they don't. But more than half of the block is in long-term relationships or married. So why am I not?

This was a guy I met online. We talked for a month. He asked me to be his girlfriend on the first date. Never made it past the first month as a couple. I never tried online dating after that.
Something like this happened once before but it was after a few weeks of dating. He was dating other people, I wasn't. When I found out we talked about it but he said not to worry, that he spent more time with me and enjoyed his time with me more. But things were different from then on. He was always "so busy". Then one night he explained more - "This is not going to work. We're not on the same page. Other women are."

I mean before any real dates happen. In the cases they do:
Yes, I respond to physical contact. A lot of men show interest before they really know me, which is somewhat disappointing. They talk about it or attempt to on the first date and I tell them I need to get know them better. Sex on the first or second date is not something I'm normally into.
