The Cancelled Date Continued

Last week I posted a blog about a cancelled date and that I'd given the guy 1 more chance. The date got cancelled again this time because the guy, who owns a small business was having problems with 1 of the machines to do with the business. I'm not so heartless I don't understand I do but this was the 4th date in a row that he'd cancelled. When he asked for another date I said no and told him that I didn't think it would work between us. I was as gentle as possible but he sent a text saying how much I had hurt him. I do feel sorry for him but how can I trust him not to do the same thing again? It wasn't only the cancelled dates, when I phoned him I kept getting his voicemail he wouldn't always answer my texts, for every 3 or 4 texts I sent he sent 1 and then he didn't acknowledge some of the content I put in the texts let alone answer some of the questions I asked yet he expected me to be available to answer his texts and phone calls. He'd say he would phone at a certain time and phone an hour later. How do I feel now it's over relieved. I know there are decent men out there and one day I will be lucky to meet the guy I will want to be with and share life with its ups and downs. So I will just put this down to experience and move on. I'd like to think this guy is not bad just thoughtless and wrapped up in his own world working hard to save his business. Perhaps one day when he's not so worried about his business he will find time to be with a woman as part of a partnership in life.
