shipoker58: we all, yes, I said ALL, play our little games!!
if you are looking for someone to maybe spend the rest of your life with (or just spend time with) then why play games with them that will hurt them???

Imasquirly1: OMG!!!! I have been dealing with something so like this but from someone who has been hounding me to go out with them for several months now....I get a phone call from him tonight telling me He ....WTF???? We spent time together last weekend, I worked all week (both day and night) we chatted on the phone a little bit during the week....he was supposed to come over for dinner on Friday and I never heard from him....until tonight....what is so damned fast about that????
can anyone fill me in???
It is man speak for telling you he is not into long term. No keeping a date to come for dinner? That is plain rude! He would not get another dinner date from me or any date for that manner. Why do you put up with it?

That was the first time that he ever stood me up....like I said, last weekend was the first time I went out with him after HE hounded me for months to go out.....I just don't understand why he felt things were moving too fast....I guess I am just dense or something.....
And there won't be any other dates of any kind with him....I don't take kindly to being put off like that...

We are human...and all have our little games! That's the bottom line. We play games mostly, to protect ourselves. Not to intentionally hurt others, but to avoid being hurt. Again, I said MOSTLY. People who say they don't play games are either liars or in denial. This is just my opinion

Or dead. They could also be dead Ship. Then again they could be just playing dead.

I know Ship...I am just so tired of all the crap....I think that I will just go back to being a hermit when it comes to dating....I am just not ready to deal with the emotional games after all that has happened in the last 4 months.

Yes I had someone that would tell me; see you tonight on Yahoo. He did not show up. He did it a second time and never appologized even. Send him back his pictures.
Did your guy appologize? I need to trust a person as without your building on what? Communication is the Key we should be able to talk about everything.

hollandgirl: Did you asked him why he felt things were moving too fast?
nope...I was at work...I couldn't really get into it too much...I was a little shell shocked too...so I didn't really think about asking at the moment....

Dawn7z: Well it says something about you that you keep trying maybe just have fun with it and see if you can strike up friendships with some of these men first unless you are doing that already. Very very hard to click with others even in trying to find guy friends in Denver I have found it very difficult and when it comes to love it is even more difficult. Hang in there girl.
Why would dating be worse in Denver? No clubs for dancing etc?
samora77: I keep telling my friend "don't get your heart involved" but how can you not -- they know you are here looking for that connection, so half their work is done. Now it's only a matter of playing with us ladies.
This is for you:- oh go have a few-I'm not watching--
Thats the thing........."Dont get your heart involved" because when you do you are doomed........
mylifewithu: I truely learned that lesson well with my last one.
Okay, Life... Would you mind sharing what happened when you finally met the person you spent so many hours emailing/phoning? What was missing in these communications that was learned in person?
Did you exchange a number of current photos so you both knew what the other looked like?
