So he organises (enthusiastically) a third date for tomorrow but doesn't get in touch all week?

What to do?

He's just told me all the gigs he's been to in the last ten days.

Oh fuck.
A boring twat.

You've done well to escape whatever hideous date he might have had up his sleeve.

Perfect response OP

‘Not free sorry’

leave it at that. If he messages you leave him on read for days - just air him. He sounds tiresome.

Itsbaloney · 27/06/2024 21:03

Rude twunt - when someone shows you who they are, believe them!!

Itsbaloney · 27/06/2024 20:55

He sounds utter crap. Free till 5pm - NAH fuck that. You are not a priority. Bin him off!!

Yeah, translated that means:

"I have a hot date in the evening but I can squeeze you in just before I have to start getting ready for it. Aren't you lucky"

Yes, as they say:

Choochoo21 · 27/06/2024 21:22

I don’t understand why you’d even text him if he’s ghosted you all week and been ignoring your messages.

We'll make sure you get your video of him and his sock before we're done.

Just figuring it out. I'm new to this, live and learn.

What's he playing at?

Coppercup · 27/06/2024 21:25

He's been ignoring all your messages all week? I missed that.

I was going to say - what's the problem with not talking all week..

So he does want to meet up tomorrow?

Itsbaloney · 27/06/2024 21:25

I’d still say no. Make him sweat. Say you’ve just made other plans.

So I get it, he ignores me all week, now he want to come to house for a quickie after work and leave in the morning.

No thank you.

He wants to meet you before 5pm tomorrow? So he has evening plans?

He is working from 5-11 - totally feasible he manages restaurants.
