Really, I want to know. Is this unreasonable?

OP, I would like to make some very emphatic points: 1) your judgment is good, 2) your standards are good, 3) you are in no way being unreasonable.

And also, sadly, 4) OLD is full of dross*

Agree @deeplyambivalent!!

I am beginning to think this guy had a lucky escape. You sound very difficult (and confused).

@TractorAndHeadphones

Seriously OP no matter what other bad things he did - even if he was a mass murderer, his rejection of you wasn’t wrong! Instead of forgetting it you’re continuing to drag his name through the mud. And coming up with red flags to justify it to yourself. That’s fine if you want to do it in private but why on a public forum? You sound very immature and emotionally unstable , please get yourself some therapy before you date again
What a completely disgusting comment. I hope it's not deleted, but kept for posterity.

This whole thread is pretty weird and appalling, and the OP really is the least of it
"'Stick to dates online in the comfort of your own home so you get to know them before meeting in person'"- seriously? Completely opposite to actual good practice.
What a crock!

OP - don't overanalyze it. Move on. When it's right, you'll know.

[quote littleloopylou]@ManifestDestinee what are you saying? Is it your view that he probably liked me but felt rejected and decided to end it on that basis? And I'm wrong to see it as a rejection of me?[/quote]
Nailed it.

Lol. Totally worth potential ban.

I call absolute bs on the latest part of the thread and the red flsgs. Noce try though

@littleloopylou

To be honest i probably wasn't attracted to him in part due to too many red flags. Shortly before he tried to kiss me, he was complaining that a tenant in a property he manages has a black friend who is staying with her. I was like why js it relevant that she's black? And he said that it's just a description Hmm
I agree it's irrelevant. It doesn't reflect well on people who do that

Well that was a rollercoaster of a thread.
