I've been single for around a year now after a messy break up with an on again off again boyfriend who promptly dumped me as soon as he found someone better.
I've been dating a lot lately, and one thing that is really starting to bother me is the amount of men who cancel plans last minute or who don't like to make advance plans and message on the day to do something that evening. I'm finding myself going round in circles trying to work these guys out..
Example, I was supposed to meet a guy Friday night (last night) who I have met before. We didn't have a specific venue/time. I don't hear anything from him until 7.30pm when he messages to say he can't make it. So how are you or sorry or anything. Then today he messages again asking to meet up. I said no (I don't want to be jumping to his demands) and he said ok well let me know when you're free. Am I being unreasonable to feel a bit angry at this? I just wouldn't personally make a plan if there was a chance I couldn't make it, and if I did have to cancel I'd be highly apologetic. This sort of thing has happened numerous times. So now I am thinking of blocking and deleting and moving on, but the amount of these guys I've blocked lately is so high, is there something wrong with me?!
I then have been seeing this other guy who I can't read at all. He's very affectionate in person, yet I hear nothing from him in between dates. Or he will text me, I will reply and then ... nothing.
Yet the guy who I have zero interest in can't stop messaging me and asking me out on dates..
Is dating really supposed to be this hard?!
