At 5:30 I get a text saying he's tied up at work, I write to say no problem, I'm stuck in traffic, we can talk later. At 8:30p I get a text that's he's "out at an event", and will call me later. It's now 10:20p. "

This doesn't sound flaky to me. He remembered to text her at 5:30 PM the next day, but he had work issues that he would not have known about the day before.  She says 'we can talk later' and he messages her early enough in the evening to let her know he's out that night and can't chat.

It's only a problem if it becomes a pattern. None of the above raises an alarm bell to me. I have a friend in CT, a GREAT catch for any woman, who has a very demanding job (owns his own company). He will often call me to tell me when he can call me. Yesterday he called and he said that he had a lot going on and that he only wanted to talk a short time because he wanted to be able to really focus on the conversation and felt too scattered.

I've known him for 30 years, long enough to know he's just wired like this. He's not a narcissist, etc., just has a lot on his plate and wants to be respectful.[/quote]
