[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure how I feel about this. 3rd date, we were supposed to go to the movies, 10 minutes before he was supposed to pick me up , I get this. This is after him texting me an hour prior reminding me to get ready so we wouldn’t be late. He told me before that his ex was a nurse, I know emergencies can happen and its tricky with kids, but I know men lie as well, so part of me is pissed  that I got ready for nothing and also wondering if it’s just an excuse!

‘I have some bad news 😔 my ex got called in for an emergency at work and I gotta grab the kids. I’m so sorry! If you can get a refund on the tickets let me know. If not I will pay you for the tickets!! I feel so bad I’m sorry!’[/quote]

You don't realize relationships with kids involved...you have no control over it.  Also, if you're upset his kids came before you...do not date a man with kids.  Kids will ALWAYS come before you - PERIOD.[/quote]

OP doesn’t seem to be taking issue at all with the fact that the date apparently had to bail to take care of his kids. The questionable behavior seems to be:

1.  He texted and reminded her to get ready and be on time (for a date she paid for lol), then

2.  At the last minute he texts to bail and makes it sound like a business transaction (get a refund) with no mention of getting together again, then

3.  The following up text says he’s bummed about missing the (free) movie instead of missing seeing her, then

4.  No follow up yet to make up for bailing at the last minute.

OP, what this means is he is not serious about you.  And that’s okay if you want to date someone very casually. I suggest do not invest anything in this guy. No advance purchase of tickets, no efforts to plan dates.  No expectations. Maybe just keep it coffee or a walk in the park so that you won’t be disappointed.  If he were to show that he’s in fact interested, then you could become more invested. That’s true for any dating situation.  [/quote]

How could he be serious after two dates? Your response is ridiculous. Kind of crap is why men think women are crazy and I say this as a woman. [/quote]
