Sheesh!!
I am normally a lone parent person, having normally nothing but angsty things to write about ex dh on there!!
I met someone online, back in sept, sort of kept in touch,.
2 weeks ago he got in touch, which was a nice surprise. We got talking, like real people on the actual phone. Then we tried to arrange something for the weekend (fnarr fnarr), which was proving a tad difficult, with childcare, him working etc... Anyhow, both said we'd meet sunday early evening. No fixed time. I heard nowt, all day, so pressumed worst, that it was all over before it began. Thats the prob, having been let down, i don't know if i am being over reactionary, but didn't want to be told off in AIBU!!! (chicken)
he eventually texted me late that night, and i said what happened today, to which he said he thought i seemed reluctant. ok, i just put it down to nerves on both sides then. How did dating get so hard, it wasn't like this in my day!! I havent had a date for 14 yrs tho!! I met my ex in a club and that was it!!
So he askes if i want to meet midweek, i say yes. The night before, siad he'd phone, but he didn't. So again i am thinking, all sorts. Am I a mug, am i too sensitive, should i phone him. TBh I was too scared, pathetic i know but pride kicked in. So i sent a texy instead, after hearing nowt saying that maybe this wasn't mwant to be. To whic he texted ( i know these texts are tedious) very pissed off saying could he not just have some dinner, he'd worked late etc..., i am not going to meet anyone if i get so uptight.
Did he have a point?
I just felt that as an adult he should let me know.
Ok, so we got over that, i drove to town (20 mile) to meet him that evening. It went ok, but he seemed alot more nervous and quiet than he's been coming across. I was brickin it tbh. We said we'd speak next day. I wasn't sure, after all the fannying about either. Yet as i have said, i am totally out of this dating loop lark. Anyway, the next weekend came and i was taking dd to town, and i said would he like to join us for a coffee, just casual. dd knows i have been talking to him and that he's a friend. So he told me what time he finished, so i planned my day for that. Went into town later etc... He text me with 2 hours to spare to say he coudln't make it after work, he had to see his family?? yeah ok, but could i make it to so an so cafe within the next 10 mins. I said i couldn't as was on other side of town. And that, was that.
i heard no more, till next day, asking did i have a good day in town with dd?
is this a totally pointless post, or what, cos reading it back i just think, what a load of poo!!
