Should I wait awhile to go get my stuff?

I was seeing this guy we met on a dating app in July. We texted for a while and at the end of August, we went on our first date. After the first date (we met at Starbucks and then we went to a park and out to eat) I started going to his house on a weekly basis once a week. This went on for a month we cuddled and watched movies together and had sex. I brought him food and we cooked together once. And also brought him dinner once. At one point he even told me to forget about other men. And he was actually talking about how we were going to do things together. At the end of September, he told me he didn't want to date even though he thought he wanted to and that he doesn't have time for anything. And that he's busy and preoccupied with work. He said he was sorry and that he knew it wasn't fair to me. I went off on him because I was so upset. And I left his underwear on his porch. I did apologize to him via voicemail.

I was in a car accident last week and I called him because I was really scared. We talked and he told me I'd be fine (I was worried that something bad was going to happen) as long as I was ok. I told him I was going to pick up some things I left at his house. He said he left them on the porch I went over there to pick them up. But I couldn't do it so I just drove off.

I haven't talked to him since Sunday when I asked him if I could borrow one of his books. He said he doesn't let people borrow anything from him. I really wish we could at least be friends because talking to him helps me. I feel so comfortable with him and this is all difficult for me. I know we haven't known each other for that long though. I think if I hadn't of went off on him things wouldn't be like this. He's not my ex because we were never actually together.

Even though he doesn't want to date I would like for us to be friends. I've started talking to other men on FB dating. I have already apologized via voicemail.

He didn't seem to have an issue with me calling him when I was in the accident. Why was it wrong that I called him? I really don't see why that was a problem. I even thanked him for talking to me and he said no problem.

He probably felt sorry for you as you’re very needy and won’t leave him alone. He will eventually get pissed off.

It’s creepy and weird to be so invested in someone you’ve had such a small amount of involvement with. Ask him to leave your things out, go and collect them, and move on.

I bet he regrets that you know where he lives.

I'm not sure him being diabetic renders him incapable of looking after himself!

As a diabetic I'm also not sure how this works lol. I think you're trying to come up with reasons to stay around op when really it's probably best to let this one go. How did the date go with the other guy?

I'm not sure what diabetes has to do with it either. But thanks to @amiold I now have a nice tidy house. I don't kiss and tell, so you'll have to decide for yourself if anything else happened Wink

@AuntieDickhead I don't mind doing it because I know you have diabetes. I just couldn't believe how messy the floor was ... I slipped on it and then just accidentally fell on top of you. It's like you set it all up. But it's not your fault

Ha, knew it would be a booty call when you said you'd seen him again.

It's entirely up to you what you do and if you want to go round clean up after him, shag him and be at his disposal, knock yourself out.

But it doesn't scream of self-respect.

It was a vibrator, right?

Also knew it would be a booty call.

OP crack on as you are. You’re obviously going to have to learn your own lesson here.

"No, I am not 17 and I never said I was so I'm not sure why people are assuming this".

Because this all makes so much more sense if you were a child.
