dunno Met a man on another dating site, and we talked on the phone off and on for over a week; laughing it up and having a great time.
We finally managed to get together for a dinner date (our work schedules conflicted) had a nice meal and conversation. After dinner we talked more than an hour and he suggested we have another date. We said goodnight and he said he'd call me the next day. Well, the next day came and went and no phone call.
Why do people feel they have to lie?

Had met a man on another dating site, and he gave me his number & told me to call. I called, and we talked for awhile. He suggested we meet up the next day. We met, and he says; "I don't think this will work out". What was his problem? He knew this before meeting up with me, and just wasted my time. Why couldn't he be mature and tell me this over the phone the day before we met? Ewwwwwwww, some people!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

some guys can be so confused sometimes... and some are also just going for their ego hit. im not saying this only happens with guys as im sure there are some girls out there doing the exact same thing. take heart, i've been put through the same. you just flick em off and not think about it no more. it's their loss.handshake handshake handshake hug

this is internet dating and many are flaky; people in todays internet generation have become self absorbed and cant' deal with confrontation or stress of any kind.

Instead of being a people person, respecting the other person and being honest, many disappear or just lie or avoid telling the truth.

If you dont have thick skin then one should not be internet dating. It's not easy; good luck

It goes sort of like this. You have fun... you communicate. Feeling good at the time. Make agreements. Then the mind starts to work. Reality sets in. Little things that were said or not said crop up in the mind. Doubt creeps in. Life happens. Then feelings get hurt. How about this idea? If you went on a long time with someone and then they dumped you, would that not hurt worse?

Thank goodness that you have so little invested before either of them cut you loose. Think about it. So much less grief and you learned something about them. Better to bail now than after you change much of your life to fit theirs. Feel grateful for such a low cost lesson.

It happens. But did you exchange pictures or chatted on webcam before you met?

You know, one thing is when you speak to a person on the phone or in chat, and meeting in person is often something different.

Well maybe he got distracted and forgot, some men do but if you have still not heard then I agree that's bad. But whatever you do DO NOT phone him.

With the other man, maybe he was uncertain by the sounds of it, but not your problem, but at least he told you how he felt, some men don't bother. He could have said nothing and you would not have heard from him again wondering why. How about saying next time 'you know what your'e right I think so too but thanks for a nice time anyway' and walk away head up smiling. wave

no matter what a good time you had on mail or telephone, the "proof" is always when 2 people meet for real.

Body language, the spark, how comfortable are we with each other, feronomes, how smooth the conversation, and what have you?

But..... that doesn't mean we shouldn't be honest and polite

The second one just sounds honest. How could he have known it wouldn't work out if he hadn't met with you - sitting across a table from you and talking face to face?

I think it is always best to meet sooner rather than later, we already know that we are looking for a companion, so when someone writes and appears to be “The One” we start to read with rose coloured glasses, this carries on to phone calls until we have created this ideal person in our head, the crunch comes when you meet for the first time, expectations are so high that the slightest deviation makes this expectation crash to the floor.
If you communicate via webcam then that can reduce some of the expectation, but it is that initial meeting that is so very important, say that, honesty then has to be at the forefront, and if there is a doubt then we should be able to voice that doubt without being made to feel guilty, truth hurts but it’s better than lying and ending up divorced.
