What does it say about a man if they say something like- listen I can’t make it tonight as I’m really tired. But I really really like you.

Constantly telling me how much he likes me when he has to let me down.

red flag?

red flag?

It's a bit fishy! I'd call it a pink flag!

He's not that into you. But wants to keep you on standby in case no-one 'better' comes along. If he's into you, he'd be meeting up with you. Sexual and emotional attraction is a great pick-me-up ... no matter how tired, he'd be making sure you were together.

Too tired to invest in your relationship? Give him the flick!

If it was someone I was really into and I was feeling really tired I would tell them and say maybe we can just have a takeaway in front of the TV tonight and even if you then just fall into bed and sleep together I would be happy with that.

Happens to everyone occasionally - key is how you respond to it

If he was loved up he’d be chomping at the bit to be around you. Ditch down the rotten egg Shute

Yeah it’s a bit weird. Unless he had an ex who used to equate him cancelling g plans with not being loved. Maybe he’s projecting that?

Twawmyarse · 08/09/2022 21:02

Yes. 🚩 When I first met dh we'd get together no matter how tired we were and would've crawled over broken glass we were so horny for one another!

He just not that into you.

Sorry, wrong thread. I will report.

If he says it once, I'd let it go but be wary. If he says it constantly, you're just his back-up,

Are you in a relationship or is it early days?
If you've only been on a few dates and you're otherwise happy, it's ok to take it slowly. just make sure you've got your own life and friends.

If he's your boyfriend it does sound like a 🚩

It sounds like he lets you down a lot, throw this one back.
