Guy casually dating reappearing out of the blue

[Needmorehours]

I met a man on a night out and we went on 3 dates and spoke regularly. As he is a very high earner I felt quite intimidated by him and didn't really get why he would want to talk to a public sector worker who is also a single Mum.

We were only dating very casually and he decided that we would be better as friends rather than anything else (after we slept together). I accepted this and moved on. He has contacted me a few times and I messaged back but did not pursue the conversation. His number is deleted and I am sure he is aware that it was not a friendship I was seeking so therefore move along.

So today I get a picture of his work schedule asking if anything looked strange in it. I looked and saw that he is going to an event 5 minutes from my home. So I said well that stands out. He replied he didn't know what it would be like. So I told him what I thought the event/activity would be and left it at that.

But seriously why bother to send me that. He isn't interested in me so why bother to contact me to tell me he will be around the corner. Why do some men do this? I feel as if he is looking for an ego boost or for me to say let's meet up.

This is totally a non issue but bugging me.

This arrogant twat needs blocking and ignoring. He sounds awful.

YY booty call. Ignore.

What Nellie said. With bells on.

The fact that he sent you his work schedule so you could work out that he was nearby is such a di'ky thing to do. Any normal person who wanted to see you would say 'I'm going to this event on the xxx and would love to meet up'. Sounds like he's an arse and any more contact would add to his ego. If you say anything negative he will think it will be because you're not over him.

It's called Zombieing. They ditch you then rise from the dead.

Not uncommon, it seems.

I just wouldn't reply. That way he will get message and hopefully stop. I had one do this. Ignored two of his messages and never heard from him again

Update. So now I have received a message saying 'I miss talking to you....I must say. Let's speak soon if you don't mind."

I haven't replied I don't see the point. We did have lovely conversations. But I'm not looking for a fwb or phone pal. I'm not being horrible am I?

Only women question themselves in these situations. No you're not being horrible. Block him. Job done. Hope you find someone lovely and worth your while...

Fgs see this for what it is. Hes reeling you back in to get another shit fuck. Just block him!!

THE BLOKE SENT YOU AN INSIPRATIONAL QUOTE IMPLYING YOU ARE EASY SUPERIMPOSED ON HIS FACE AND YOU ARE ASKING IF YOU ARE BEING HORRIBLE??????!!!!!!!

FFS. No you are not!

He's upping the sweet treatment now because you haven't responded. It's all part of the game. If you respond you'll get into conversation, he'll sweet talk you some more, eventually you'll meet up, dtd maybe, then he'll disappear again making you feel rubbish.

This one is not a keeper. Leave him in the pond where he belongs.

Treat like a child you keeps asking for more toys in a shop. Buy them one when they play up and next time they will want one and so on. Ignore, ignore, ignore

In case you're thinking that you might be ignoring a chance for a genuine reciprocating relationship here, can I point out that the words 'how are you?' are noticeably absent from his communications.

I suspect your non response has piqued his interest, but it's not a game you're playing - this guy has nothing to offer you. Move along, nothing to see here!
