Sorry dear, but if the guy didn't have the balls to at least call and say he couldn't make it, he's not going to grow some in order to give an explanation on why he didn't.
Saw another thread on here about the Bible and how unbelievable it really is. If people would take the time to really read it, the formula for successful relationships is in there. It tells of how a man is to treat his wife and how the wife should treat her husband.
This may be a bit simplistic but it has just occurred to me that in order to attract the type of person that you want, you must become the person that you want.
Learn from it. Recognize the signs earlier and walk away earlier. I have been there myself. I look back and realize that it wasn't really based in reality. It was a fantasy that I wanted so bad that I was willing to do whatever I could to keep it together. Unfortunately, the other person felt no such desire. Learn from the past and make better decisions in the future.
We all have Daniel. The hardest thing for me to always remember is that no matter how much I want someone, I can't make them see things my way. I can't make them see anything. I can only look at the part I played in what happened and learn from it, (hopefully), and move on.
Find something that you are passionate about doing. If you choose a career that you love, it won't seem like a "job" at all, and the money usually will follow.
You can't do it alone. Both people must be willing to communicate and talk things through. You can control no one but yourelf. You can change no one but yourself. When looking at a situation and pointing fingers, always remember that 3 fingers are pointing back at yourself.
Yeah, well, as long as I have been here, I don't think I have ever put so much out there at one time. Don't want anyone to get used to it. I prefer to keep things pretty much at surface level until someone wants to know a little more.
I would guess that most women would like their man to come home everynight after work. I will most likely always be a long distance relationship even if we are "together" in a sense. When I leave for work, I am gone 2 to 3 weeks as a rule.
Must be time for bed. I can't believe that I actually put that out there for all to see. Not like me at all. I have a pretty good life as it is. Perhaps it is only a fantasy that I am chasing.
I have never actually been with someone that wanted to grow as a couple and to build a life with me. I have learned a lot in the last few years. I am still learning. To find someone that wanted to walk through life by my side would probably be quite wonderful. Would I be perfect? No. Should the woman be willing to take my hand and help me make a course correction? I can only imagine what it would be like to actually be with somone that was willing to talk things over and to work things out. Perhaps one day I will get to experience it.
If the other person isn't contacting you like they did, that is a sign. If the conversation is now a bit strained, or when all else fails, a good kick in the groin area usually gets my attention real fast.
I wouldn't give my number out right away. If we had been chatting on here and through skype for a while, then obviously things are going well. If the impression on both parts is that this is going somewhere, then why wouldn't you give out your number? Somewhere down the line, trust has to enter into the relationship.

I think player may have been a better word to use than scammer. JMO
