[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, have you met with the guy?  How did it go?  Is there a second date?[/quote]

OP here.

I was right to be suspicious. He is, at the very least, a flake.

Date was supposed to be last Friday night (~10 days ago). I did not hear from him all day Thursday, which I thought was odd because he was planning the date and had been talking about really extravagant plans for it, which I had already told him to dial back, so surely picking a spot for drinks wouldn't be difficult. Thursday night (or Friday morning, I guess) he messaged me after midnight saying he was out on "the worst date ever."

At a normal time Friday morning I replied, said the date couldn't have been all that bad if he was still on it after midnight on a Thursday, and asked about our plans for that night. He asked what time I could meet (we were supposed to go for drinks after work, downtown). I told him, and he said OK great, he was going into a meeting but would message me when he got out of it. Heard nothing for the rest of the morning/afternoon. When the time I had said we could meet had passed, I sent a message saying that since I hadn't heard from him, I was headed out of downtown.

Several hours later he messaged me with "I bet you really hate me right now." That was the entire message. No apology, no explanation. I didn't reply, and haven't heard from him since.

The upshot: my gut is a good BS-detector. [/quote]
