There are no real clues I'm afraid, I had 125 mails from one person but you only find out what makes them tick when you meet them in person...

You said that you made plans to meet the next day...just as you had every other day. Had you actually gone somewhere and sat waiting for him, or did he call and cancel with some excuse? Anyway, this would certainly have been my red flag, particularly if it was more than once. If he made plans to meet you and he cancelled once, with a seemingly believable excuse at the time, and re-scheduled, I might have given him the benefit of the doubt. But ONLY once. If it happened a second time, I would not have made any other plans to meet him.
All that said, you also mention that you are new at cyber dating. Don't let it get to you. Keep on plugging. I have had some wonderful experiences...met some very decent men whose company I thoroughly enjoy. Haven't found "the one" but, to be honest, I don't really care. I recognize that I might never find him. In the meantime, though, I have expanded my social life tremendously and have made some wonderful friends in the process. Sure, there are losers out there, but I think that there are more winners. The glass is still half full...and it's a flute of champagne, to boot!
Good luck...don't let this experience get to you. You'll do just fine, I'm sure.

My Guess is that he told you to meet him, when you got there he was watching from a distance and when he saw you he realised you were not what he expected and flew the coop.
A tactic used often by men, Im giving up manly secrets which means I will most likely be shot at dawn.

Good one..
If they don't response back, I say its good that they don't. Because this is a good sign that they can be flaky. So I wouldn't worry about it. I would say NEXT!.. The guy that truly wants to get to know you will be there. So I wouldn't worry nor focus on it..

I agree with you here, in my opinion this is a sign of a major bulls*****r when they give you all that crap not forgetting the words "love" & "babes" 
Big red flag for me also

Ah, maybe he also meant it sincerely then if he was also southern.
Did you actually turn up to meet him in real life or did you arrange to meet online and he never showed?

Sorry
No, we had not actually met in person - 5K miles distance
And this was the first and only time he had "stood me up"
This also was the first time I ever agreed to "chat" with someone.
That was the hours and hours over days and days
Since I don't do bars, do work at home, and spend a lot of time making jewelry and clothing here in the studio, I am not going to just run into Mr. Right. No chance of casually meeting people like me (pagans) here in Jackson, Mississippi - it is in the bible belt - we mostly stay in the broom closet.
Cyber is the only way available to me that I know of
But is it the age - or is it that men are just pigs?
No, I know they are not pigs. I have just come across a sorry batch - this was the worst.
BUt then, I don't want to be all closed to men in general.... they are lovely creatures and we all ought to own a couple.
Thank you all so much - I will muddle through, of that I am sure.
Any more advice? Please feel free to add your two cents.

Whos idea was it to meet? Maybe that had something to do with it. And I agree with some of the prevous posts in that, if a guy is very quick to be affectionate and give you little pet names and tell you how he feels about you, then that might be the point where you want to start being a little more cautious. *M*

I'm with you there.Hopefully the local high school band marched over him too after the steam roller made sure he was nicely flattened into the tarmac (like on the film "naked gun").
I don't know why people bother to waste their time or others?

Be yourself and someone will come along who likes you for what you are.
If people don't like you for what you are then there not suitable anyway!

Yeah, I've heard of that scam for years. Sometimes they say they'll do it very cheaply for just to get their hands on your bank details too

Yes. Those guys are out there. I hate hearing those sad stories too.

"Met" a guy here - wonderful guy - so it seemed
We did hours and hours of voice IM - over several days - never heard any negative - and there were no vocal signs, no warnings... all honey sweetie etc. NO CLUES AT ALL
Made plans to meet the following day just as we had every other day
He fell off the side of the earth - evidently
Not asking whys - don't really care why someone is rude - they just are
But (since I am TOTALLY new to this cyber dating, chat, etc) what I want to know is
How can one tell if someone is real or faking it?
In person, you have body language, facial expressions, etc... I can tell if someone is really interested or playing.
What are the cyber clues?
Are there any?
Thanks
WW
