Taking your number then not calling....

[wildwest]

I met a guy the other night I felt I really connected with. He was pretty full on asking if I'd like to see him again. He made me put my number in his phone. Then he made me write my number down for him. I really thought he would text/call the next day and... nothing. I sent a very short upbeat message - no reply. Why do men do this! So annoying. Of course I'll move on .. plenty more out there. But seriously. Grrr.

Prob had a wife and just wanted an ego boost

What night was it?

Beer-induced confidence followed by cold feet?

Number collector? How old is he?

No wife. Deffo divorced. (Went back for coffee - just coffee! Lots of kissing!). He's 46. Wanted me to stay but I said no and got a taxi home. He was so full on though and I don't usually connect with someone so quickly. It was only Saturday night but it's the ignoring of my message that's more irritating. Why be so on it about exchanging numbers, seeing each other again and ignore when I text? Whatwouldyousay - I think so!

Mmm my guess would be that maybe the full-on-ness was mainly to try & persuade you to come back & then stay? He obviously was attracted to you but perhaps just wanted some fun?

Yes sure I get that. He's a man afterall! But I was a little while before I was leaving he asked me to put his number in my phone and then grabbed a notepad so I could write mine down for him. One thing I know for definite about men... is that I know nothing about men! I'm annoyed that I'm annoyed! Why can't they just say what they mean or say nothing at all.

Wholeheartedly agree! He might've just got cold feet but sometimes you just felt like there's been a bit of game-playing when there doesn't need to be.

Very frustrating! Curse his name for a bit & by morning you'll have forgotten all about him.

Had my little rant now so feeling better already! Haha!

I was chatting to a bloke online, getting on well. He asked for my mobile number, I gave it to him. Never heard from him again!

Men are weird.

Definitely! And we are the ones that are supposed to be difficult to figure out. I think not!

Little update - I've realised I took his number wrong. It's invalid so at least he didn't ignore me! :-)

Met a guy online, had loads in common, non stop talking for six days, then silence, 4 weeks later he stealthily removes me from skype.

Men are stupid.

Hmmm, how did you find that out wildwest? Did you try calling him? .

Haha! Well I told someone at work and they said to call the number from works phone (it's private number) to see if he answered. No dial. Anyway - at least he didn't ignore me. But he's still not been in touch (unless I wrote my number down wrong too!). She suggested getting in touch through Facebook but I think too stalkery. I think will just let it go. Plenty more out there!

Um - I have a date!! With the guy!!

Yay!!!

ive come across loads of men who do that, dont call / text for days.
My fella played that game with me when we first got togehter, I reminded him a few months during a conversation and asked him why, he said 'what would have been the point contacting you on a monday i couldnt offer to take you out for another 2 weeks'.............. say no more!!!!

Ive also experienced men as suggested above, who seemed keen and got back. Their loss.

Keep us posted on your date ;))
