Dating fizzling out

So I think I know I'm slowly being dumped but wanted to get it out and see if happened to anyone else as feeling pretty lonely tonight !

Started seeing a guy before Christmas - he was lovely, very attentive, always wanting to meet, lots of texts and said nice things.

I'd been single for 6 years after horror last relationship so wanted to take it a little slowly... Which we did. Anyway been having a great time with him. Really like him and now he's started tailing off.

Couldn't see each other last week because of work - seen him earlier this week and arranged a date tomorrow (as he was busy every night.... I know)

Then no contact from him since. I've messaged him tonight - quite light 'How's it going' type thing. He's replied but casually dropped in how he's now out tomorrow (no mention of our date or anything).

I'm being dumped aren't I ? I know it's only been a couple of months but I feel a bit foolish as I wasn't looking to get involved with anyone and I feel like he's presumed me till I like him and is now giving me a cowardly brush off.

Sandyclaus I think you'll find you have to develop a bit of a thick skin where online dating is involved it does seem to bring out the worst in some people.

Have a read thru the ongoing roll up its dating thread 98 or whatever number there're up to now!.

Hi, peace and slowdecrease thanks for your comments.

Justaboy - you're right I do need a thicker skin, and perhaps have also been a bit gullible this time round. I joined that thread yesterday and could identify with a lot of the comments - so will defo be on it again for moral support :)
