There are many good men out there yet that will have time for you!
I wish I could believe that there are good men out there. I have heard of these mythical creatures but have no experience with them. As for finding someone, I don't think that is in the cards for me.Stay strong. Don't waste your energy on someone who won't value what you have to offer. That energy is better spent taking care of yourself and finding someone worthy of your time and love. Hang in there.

Yep. Funny how he could make time to go to his class reunion, over to Reno to see his buddy, up to Alaska, etc, etc, etc. He always found time for the "important" things. I just wasn't one of them.Yeah, "too busy" is just terrible rationalization and excuses for not wanting to be in a relationship.
I know it is hard, but be strong. You deserve much better. Delete his contact info from your phone and your life. You will get through this and we will help you if you need us. You can do it.
I like Klayfish's sentiment, too, but again, don't waste energy thinking about this guy with these sorts of thoughts.Yep.

My DD had a break up and we had these types of conversations, too. And others advised her of ways to meet people. Then out of the blue, it happened. But I agree, if you're home wanting to contact this deadbeat think about what else you can do that gets you out into the world.If you're contacting him, you have way too much time on your hands. Join a gym. Join a meetup group. Get outside. Get on a trail.
My single friends' calendars are packed. They're always going somewhere.
Funny you should say that. That concert was the catalyst for the end of our "non-relationship." It was when I went to buy ticket for it and he wouldn't get back to me if he wanted to/could go that I knew that I knew he was never going to make time for me. I consider that day to be "the end," even though it took a week or so for it to really come to a finale.That Brett Young concert is messin with your head, hahaha. Easier said than done, but stay strong.
Ummm…..not going to happen.Do it. Then let us all know how it went.
If he is old enough to have a granddaughter then you are both to old for this nonsense. Let it go and walk away.Ummm…..not going to happen.
But I can tell you how it will go.
Me: You Suck!
Him: I've been busy, lets meet for coffee tomorrow morning.
Me: No, I don't need your pity.
Him: It's not pity, I want to see you.
Me: Then why haven't I heard from you in five week.
Him: I've been busy, my granddaughter was here.
Me: Okay. Well if you ever aren't busy, let me know.
Men suck when it comes to relationships. We do, I'm not afraid to admit it. Yeah, "too busy" is just terrible rationalization and excuses for not wanting to be in a relationship. I've been married for 20 years now (and with DW for 22 total) so it's been a long time since I was dating, but I can say I never used that excuse. I'm beyond lucky to have DW, she's an amazing woman and she's put up with all the bonehead things men like me say and do. I have made it a point recently to bring specific focus on being a far better husband and father and have dedicated myself to it.
Hang in there. While we men are morons, there are plenty of us who truly do want to make a relationship work...no matter how badly we stumble all over it.
