Sometimes they actually do you a favor by disappearing. I would not take it personally, there is a difference of opinion or something and they do not want to address it.

Oh yeah, familiar scenario. don't know the answer. don't really care either.

me neither:banana:

hmmm...maybe my response sounded harsh. oops actually, I do care. it bothers me. BUT I have come to view the situation differently in order to stop the stress about it.

Essentially, you can't control anyone else's actions or behaviors. What other people do may not seem right to you, but whatever they do isn't about you. It's about themselves. If you take everything personally, you feel like crap about it. If you make assumptions about what that person's motivations are, you feel like crap about it and could easily be mistaken. So I'm trying to just take everything in stride, not make assumptions, and not take it personally. I feel a whole lot better about myself just doing that. I hope that makes sense.

Well I do, I mean how can you build a friendship with somebody and then have them stop talking to you, and not care?

I agree. The people in front of the monitor are real, with real feelings. I mean if you are not real on a dating site, then how are you supposed to meet anybody?

I can see where you are coming from, and can agree, it is just so frustrating sometimes.

Then Fukc him!!! I know its easier said then done, obviously, but he is not worth your time. You deserve at least a explanation as to why, and if he cant at least do that, then that shows u right there what kind of person he really is.

flowerforyou Sometimes a person wants to set up a long distance relationship and if you dont want that sometimes it is too hard to explain to them without hurting their feelingsflowerforyou


Come ON!!...I have had the scenario of which Whisper speaks happen at least 8 or 10 times just since the first of the year. Sometimes through IMing, other times through the phone. Even up to within 4 days of him supposedly flying in to meet me. It's like a new flavor of the month club.

What is wrong with just saying..."I haven't felt comfortable with where some of our discussions have been going. It's nothing I can put my hand on, exactly, but it's enough that I think we should part ways. I think you are a really great person and wish you the best of luck."

Instead, we continue to post messages or leave voice mails that go unanswered several times before we realize we must have just been jilted. That does wonders for our self-esteem. And then guys wonder why women are so skeptical.
