hello, guys, I'm expecting your active responses to this question. How would you respond to such a man?
A guy I met online areed to meet and invite me to see a movie. But as soon as he hear that a discount would be available if we show our credit card at the ticket office. OK, it is understandable, after all no one wants to pay a higher price for that. The problem is that would be our first meeting and he insisted me call the bank and ticket office to inquire about details about the discount stuff. later when he heard a discount might not be valid, he changed his mind. He offered to treat me singing as our first meeting.
again, he searched the telephone number of the singing place and gave me a numbr for me to inquire the rates. I made a phone call at 2 am in the morning but don't get me wron, 2 am is th opening hour. then I told him the prie and he agreed on that. we decided to sing after noon. There came the trouble. in the mornng, he texted to me that he had to meet his former classmates and have meal wit them. I said OK though I was not happy about this because after all we made the appointment first.
well, it's OK. I told mysef not to be that mean. Allow people to have their own business to attend to.
That evenin, he said sorry online and this time, he suggested to meet me near my office. I would finish work at 18.00 pm and he said he would wait at a MCDONALD an treat me to dinner.
guess what? guess you would robably think of the result.
YES, AGAIN, I hate to say this, he didn't make a phoe call . in the daytime, he messaged me a dozen of times asking about my mood and my work. I told him that I would finish work 2 hours later, that is 20.00 pm. he said "wow".
but an hour later, I was informed that I needn't work overtime, so I messaged him to inform him that I stll knock off at 18.00. But he never called or show up.
That's the whole story.
should I give him a chance to clarify any misunderstanding or there is no misunderstanding at all? wht would you say?

I really hate people with that kind of attitude. As if nothing happened. Or maybe he's insane. It reminds me of some of my friends. If I were you, I would just ignore him and find another one[if you want to of course].
Anyways, Happy MyLotting!

Yes to wait and clear it and discusse it. If he doesn't do that go straight to him and ask why he wants to keep changing places. If you can text/phone/meet do you know his address put note on his door. If he hasn't done anything else then I don't know then.

LOL I'm sorry but this guy sounds not only like he's cheap but also that he's irresponislbe and he seems shady to me..If a person REALLY wants to meet someone face to face adn get to know them etc they should be on the ball ya know...the way I am and what I believe is this "ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS" and its SOOOOOO true....This guys actions say (IMO) that he's not really interested in getting to know you, isnt willing to put in an effort to getting to know you and isnt being straight up with you...

Hi magic, why on earth would you want to give a second chance to a man who failed to show you respect. If he can't even put you first on a first meeting it will only be downhill after that. Don't waste your time my dear, respect is of utmost importance. happy

I am sorry to say this, but I think there is something seriously wrong with this guy. I don't understand why he keeps asking you to find out all the details and then changes the plan. Its just strange. I can understand, if he is busy and asks you to make the calls. But he has time to send you text messages through the day, but cannot call up the places you guys were to meet at? Hmmm... Fishey.

I think its best that you ignore him now, before he irritates and hurts you, any more.


myLot reputation of 94/100. magic9 (353)   ranked 1,749 out of 35,119 in people  2 months ago

yeah, dear cbeee. I didn't understand why he insisted me make the inquirement. He had a phone though he might or might not pay a higher phone bill for that simple phone call coz he was back from another city.
the next day he said his phone was broken but could only send messages. Then I asked how his classmates contacted him and asked him out, well he said it was his home telephone.
anyway, he's not really serious about the meeting.
so, you areabsolutely righ, ignore him!
have a good day!


myLot reputation of 98/100. cbeee3 (844)   ranked 4,542 out of 35,119 in people  2 months ago

Its good that you are going to ignore him. It is clear that he is a liar and can't even make good excuses!! I hate people like this. thumbdown

This isn't someone in your real world life or really worth all the work that you already put into it. Sounds cheap and self centered to me. I would have cut it when he basically ditched me to go with friends. So when something better comes along you with just get rid of me. Also since he was allowed to treat you this way and you still talk to him lets him know that this is okay to do and this is the kind of relationship you all will have. Which sounds like something you would not be happy with.

chalk up your losses and move on. there are better people in this world for ya.

I think there is no necessary to give the guy a second chance to clarify any misunderstanding. Maybe this guy is just a passer-by in your life. You should know that it's not play house.The man gave you so bad impression and show so clear contempt to you, so you should apart from this guy.

Hi magic9, after reading your post all I have to say is "run away" this guy does not respect you. Meeting someone online is dangerous anyway, but when you make dates and the other person fails to show or responds in an questionable way, it should be a red flag for you. If I were in your positin I would stay away from this guy completely, no messages no nothing. You dont know much about this guy to begin with and for him to be disrespectful like that could be a sign that if you move forward and pursue a relationship with him you could be getting more than you bargained for. Your safety could be at risk, so I would say move on and block this jerk from your phone and computer. Good luck.

If I were you, I'll ask him to go jump in the lake. This guy is testing your patience and has nothing but excuses for you. If he really wanted to take you out, he could suggest a place which is within his reach and not worry about his wallet. Instead, by giving such excuses he is only trying to be rude. He has a sick attitude and I suggest you stop all forms of communication with him.
