Wanting to meet

Hello

I've been OLD and currently speaking to someone, it's coming up to 4/5 weeks. We message each other multiple times every day, and previously when discussing meeting (2nd week of speaking) he mentioned that he's going through issues and we will meet eventually (returned from holiday and not unwell) - I was happy to wait a little longer.

Fast forward to yesterday, I mentioned I have the next 2 weeks off and I don't want to feel as though this is just communicating via text/calls. Also that I do actually want to see you in person so we can identify whether we are genuinely right for each other, due to the nature of some of our conversations. He also has been posting going out on weekends, which indicates he can probably make time but isn't at the moment.

He went into a bit of a paddy, and said I was playing games and that I should say things straight. Also that I only said that because I want to see whether he's attractive or not.

What is the average meeting time when OLD? Am I being unreasonable to want to meet up and get to know each other in the "real world"?

He's stringing you along OP and now trying to deflect onto you.

Throw him back

He's got time to go out. Just not with you.

Back he goes.

Many timewasters on OLD love the thrill of speaking to someone who is interested in them, but no more. He wants a penpal not a relationship. Agree with posters above, let this one go.
