I've Learned Something

On the 10th May I finally ended the relationship with the guy I met from this site. It was not an easy decision as I really cared about him. When we met things were great we got on well and agreed to discuss problems which we did. Then the texts got fewer and the phone calls were only made if I asked if he was still interested in me to which he always replied yes. I started asking when we could meet again and he always replied soon. A friend of mine not connected with this site suggested I asked if this relationship was going anywhere which I duly did. He said yes and that he'd be down either in the afternoon or evening. I asked him to make it the evening as I was committed to a 9 mile charity walk and he agreed. Anyway I completed the walk, had a quick brownie and latte in the pub and went home to get ready for the date. I waited over an hour and he failed to show up. I text him to ask if he was still coming? No reply. I text again this time asking if he was still interested in me. Still no reply Finally I sent him a text saying that I had wanted the relationship with him but it was obvious by his non attendance on our date and his failure to respond to the texts that he had finished with me. So I said that this time it was over for good. I had tried phoning but it just went to voice mail. I have learned from this and the lesson I've learned is that if a guy keeps making excuses as to why he can't meet a woman and vise versa then they're not interested. I also know what I want from a relationship. Someone who is reliable but most of all honest in that if they don't think it's going to work they will tell me. I will have a lot more respect for an honest person than one who can't even bring himself to text saying he wants the end of the relationship. I changed my profile the next day. I may have hurt for a while but there is no way I'm going to give up looking for that guy to share the ups and downs of my life with. This experience has made me stronger not weaker. I have a lot of love to give to the right guy, a nice ordinary guy who's not perfect but is honest and reliable.

Good for you! You deserve to be treated with respect. It is good that you respect yourself enough to not allow him to continue to be dishonest with you. I feel your pain and am so sorry that you are hurting now. I know how it feels, believe me! I am proud of you for not giving up. It is good that you vented about what happened to you. I wish you the best of luck. I know the perfect guy will come along for you. Take good care of yourself. Peace and Hugs!
Thanks for your kind comments. I will never give up, it's in my nature to persist. I believe in being positive out every bad situation there is always a positive side in that a lesson has been learned and only good can come out of it.
He wasn't the one for you. Good for you. The right one will come along who will be just right for you.
Never give up and stay positive. You deserved someone better than him.You have a lots of love to offer, so im sure you will find the right one for you comfort
And what a positive lady you are. I agree with what other posters have said...You deserve much much more than what you got.
You are a wonderful and kind lady and you mean a lot to me, I would be in a rubber room without you at this stage. So the guy who gets you is getting an angel, and he needs to treat you as you deserve to be treated, otherwise I will come back and haunt himrolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
My late wife used to say don't look too hard because you will find it when you least expect it.
Dont you ever ever change D

your story is very inspiring..thanks for sharing it for us..I believe I can learn something from it..Keep on good workhandshake
Thank you for the comments. The good news is I'm in contact with another guy now. We chat on line and so far things are going great. We both believe in total honesty and we know what we will and won't tolerate in a relationship. He was looking for someone who said what she thought with no frills, just plain speaking. He got that from me and he's still interested. However I'm being cautious and not raising my hopes. If it works out fine, if not I pick myself up and keep going until I find the right guy. I don't expect every guy I meet to be into me, I just expect him to be honest and tell me he's not interested me and not to string me along like the guy I talked about in the blog did.
