To set the scene, I'm going through a lot at the moment anyway, so probably a bit more emotional than normal.
I've been seeing someone for about a month so it's early days. However, it feels like we've known each other for a long time. The connection is intense. We get along great. Ect. We haven't actually slept together yet so it's not a connection based on that.
A couple of times now, we were supposed to see each other but he's essentially cancelled due to things coming up.
Yesterday he was supposed to come round, but he didn't. He didn't cancel, just said he was busy sorting out something, so I asked if that meant he was too busy, and he said ye but he'd come today instead.
I told him to forget it, I was getting sick of being let down, not to bother anymore. You get the idea.
He's acted shocked like he can't see why I'm upset. I've explained that I don't feel like a priority to him at all (and I don't mean I expect to see him daily ect, just that when we make a plan, he sticks to it, and that he makes time for me at least once or twice a week, there's no real reason why he doesn't have that time).
He says all the right things, when we are together it's great. And the thing that cropped up last night could have waited until he'd seen me.
It's more the fact that he didn't even tell me 'sorry, this has happened and I need to sort it, so can we rearrange for tomorrow '. I'd have been more understanding.
As I say, it's early days so on that point I totally understand he doesn't need to shift his life around for me, but the relationship has got intense very fast and he says how I'm so important and how I brighten up his life ect. We're both in our 30s, so not our first relationship, but both have a bit of baggage to carry as well.
I know you lot will be honest (please be kind though). Have I over reacted, or am I OK to be upset at him flaking on me?
I'm worried he's playing me in some way and I'm being stupid, or that I'm being an emotional idiot and spoiling something here.
