Do I go on this date?

Mydogatemypurse · 23/01/2020 19:57

Before xmas I met a man online. 3 dates. All amazing. Both seemed smitten then he text to say he was meeting his ex and it was a kind of date. I blew my top deleted contact. Moved on.
He rang me last night. (Prob been dumped by the ex) apologising. Stating he shouldnt have gone back but history Christmas etc and can we meet for a drink.
I still feel pissed off but I do have feelings.

He's not worth it, too much baggage.

Imperialmeasurements · 23/01/2020 20:01

If It was me, I don’t think my pride would let me see him again.
I wouldn’t want to be someone’s second choice.

Ew no, block and move on.

No definitely don’t go back to him!

JaneyGotAGun · 23/01/2020 22:32

Nah, sack him off

Grembolina · 23/01/2020 22:35

Definitely not.

FloreanFortescue · 23/01/2020 22:40

She'll always be "the one that got away".

Avoid!

Nobody wants to be second choice. Also I would never be able to trust him after that and who has time and energy to spend being anxious and probably unhappy? Definitely block and move on. Easier said then done as you say feelings are there but you'll be saving yourself from a lot of hurt in the long run.

Honeyroar · 23/01/2020 23:55

No. He thought he had a better offer. You’re not second choice.

MopsRUs · 24/01/2020 02:41

Walk away!

Sadiee88 · 24/01/2020 02:51

I’d have serious trust issues! It’s a no from meHmm

namechange1041 · 24/01/2020 02:52

No, don't do it.

stuckinthemiddlewithtwats · 24/01/2020 03:05

No, you're second choice. And he's probably still got it bad for his ex anyway, even if she no longer wants him.
It would end up an issue again at some point (both my last two relationships had ex issues and it came out they were both still in love with them).

Connie222 · 24/01/2020 03:27

Fuck no. He’s a twat.

MadamBatty · 24/01/2020 03:59

He has a brass neck even asking you out again. NOOOO, I wouldn’t bother replying

Feelingabitashamed · 24/01/2020 05:04

Dont bother. It will happen again and you will feel like second best. You're not second best.

Yeah I'm going to trust my gut. The fact that I feel mad with him still doesnt bode well for a date anyway.
Yeah you are all right. Them ex issues wont go away over night.

Sack him off op. You dont need to do this f2f just a text then block if he tries to manipulate you to give him a 2nd chance etc.

ShatnersWig · 24/01/2020 08:38

God why are men such turds

We aren't. But this one is. So don't be an idiot and go back out with him.

Notwiththeseknees · 24/01/2020 09:54

Definite no from me - you are worth more than this!

Jupiters · 24/01/2020 10:08

Like everyone else says...absolutely not!
