So an ex bf of mine who is trying not to be an ex was supposed to come over today. We agreed on around 3pm. So I got up, took a shower, and sat around waiting. 3pm came and went. Around 4:30 I called him to see what happened and he told me he was waiting on a friend to bring him gas money and he would be here later this evening. Then about 7pm he calls me and says he wont be able to make it because his friend couldn't come through for him. Now all of this wouldn't bother me so badly if he hadn't been making jokes out of it the whole time. When I asked him originally what happened he said "I guess I don't want to see you badly enough to walk over there." He lives ten minutes away! I am so staying singlefrustrated The guy has a history of disappearing on me and showing up out of nowhere trying to act like everything is just peachy. I am sick of the games.

next time, just tell not to bother coming over, that you have better things to do. sounds like he is just playing to much.

He was appearing to be trying for like the last 2 weeks. He was calling every day and coming over often. I have a difficult living situation right now so I cant just leave with him any time I want to so right now I told him if he wanted to see me he had to come to me. And it looked like he was trying for a while.

My thoughts exactly. He has told me more than once that he would do something and then ended up not doing it. I am so sick of the games.

Stuff like that is exactly why I don't date often. I am not opposed to dating, it's just I seem to meet all the jerks and no goods and etc. It's like I have a sign that says "Jerks and No goods apply here." Oh well, I'll get off my soap box now.

Why question his lack of manners and consideration toward you? He's proven to you more than once what he's made of. Shouldn't really come as too much of a surprise.

Why didn't you go pick him up then? Jokes or not, he may of done you a favor, so count your blessings instead of getting all bent out of shape..

First.....you are answering the phone..inviting him into your life....DON"T...he is a loser.

Second.....if in fact you want him in your life, for what ever reason, your business....heres what to do....ignore him. Oh it will be tough, because you want him right...he will do almost anything to get your attention.....ignore ignore ignore....bam, he will eventually crawl the 10 minutes to get to you....or move on.....either way....who cares....right?

I do wish you will...dating can be great....you demand how someone should treat you, don't let others decide.

Good luck!!!

next time tell him to meet you, or if he asks to meet you. say yeah and give a place and time and just not be there. fair is fair.

Thanks for the advice guys. I am not really expecting much out of this guy. It's just irritating when it is actually proven that people don't change. I am not really worried about him. I was just on a rant.laugh
