sultryash: Maybe some men play games maybe not ....but we women have to remember that some guys get just as shy and nervous about asking a woman out or even calling to say hi, as some women get about going on a date too.

Dont write him off, maybe he will call/text you later....maybe just trying to rack up the nerve to do it
it is very rare that a guy online cant get the nerve to write.
my advise to the op is to carry on with her life because if a man is "really" interested he will call, write, ect.
i do by the way have a friend who used to live in malta who i think these two would be a nice match?
dont wanna play matchmaker here but hes a nice guy and she seems nice..seems a shame these two are spending the holidays alone.

I don't think this guy is shy. In response to my hello e-mail he immediately suggested we meet and first thing this morning said would text later today. He says he doesn't go out much but it sounds like a player to me. Not so inclined to hold my breath waiting for his text.

A few days ago after you had very kindly talked with me, you took some very offensive talk from another member. I am sorry that your being nice to me resulted in you getting insulted.

Hey I've played matchmaker in the past and they got married. Feel free to set me up. If I don't like the guy I won't lead him on because I'm a straightforward person.

Whether a man or a woman does it, it's still plain rude to promise to do something and then not do it.

I don't know. There are men who get in contact, email every day, twice or more a day... asking about future plans, flirting, carrying on, wanting photos, phone numbers, private email addresses, a date to meet up... and then suddenly BOF, out of the blue, they disappear.

I haven't a clue why they even get in touch to begin with, let alone why they disappear.

Pillocks? Probably...

in my opinion they are playing the game..make a list of all the women they want to meet..meet them then pick the best out of the litter then date that one for awhile or untill they score touchdown in bed, then move on and do the same thing over again..lol..forget about the tossers. life is too short to let anyone take your joy away.
