Juliette - yes, I think this is the first time he's been out apart from to the hospital but the reason he is cancelling is because he is too upset after the shite with the ex. It would have upset me, tbh, but I wouldn't have gone and cancelled on someone for that same evening. I am pretty fed up about this as it doesn't seem very considerate or respectful.
But trying to be fair, if he's not in the mood then he's not in the mood and I think he's one of those people that retreats into their cave when things go wrong.
I am fed up though of making allowances and being understanding.
I do like him, I really like him, but not enough to put up with being dicked about with.
Have been on PoF and found a nice message from the only veggie bloke in the local area . . . Could be the start of something beautiful (or not). Will see if he replies as it was rather a long time ago that he messaged. I am going to have a search and a flirt and cheer myself up. Shallow and childish, probably, but tonight I don't give a toot.
(Actually, I am a bit 
as well but that's how these things go).
