Well okay, I met this guy on an online dating site about a month ago. He messaged me and it wasnt exactly him writing me because of interest, he was asking me if i liked this show. I mean even his profile was sorta wacky.It just almost seemed like he wasnt serious about the whole dating thing even though he was on a dating site?? i always end up liking the weirdos though. i thought he was pretty funny and cool so i gave him my number to text me and he did the next morning. Texting at first was pretty cool. we never talked about anything serious ever. its just random things/whatever we could think of. And he used tease me a lot/ draw me things(hes an artist) and it was just so cute.But i still feel like i dont know anything about him? he hasn't told me anything about himself. you know? One night he claimed he was drunk and he told me he liked me and he asked me to be his girl. I said no of course because he was drunk and it kinda made me mad i dont like when people say things they dont mean. He doesnt really draw me anything anymore which sucks i loved his drawings. but we have good conversations every now and then, though it seems like whenever hes being really cute and the conversation is good, the next day we BARELY talk. Its so frustrating. almost like he does enough to keep me hooked then he withdraws. ive been telling him i want to hang out and he says yes but he never says when. but one day i was telling him about this movie i wanted to see and he said "maybe saturday" after he said that we barely talked that entire week and then comes saturday he just asks me if im still up for today?? i didnt know he was even serious about it? sure as hell seemed like he didnt want to talk to me/hang out. and i couldnt go because i made other plans assuming he wasnt serious about hanging out. anyway we rescheduled for the coming up saturday but he hasnt texted me back since? idk what he wants from me. i dont know if hes just leading me on. i really like him but if he doesnt like me i'd rather him tell me so i can move on? but he claims he still likes? idk guys. if it helps He's a Taurus and im a Sagittarius

There are so many things wrong with this picture.

1. You got on that dating site for a reason. Take yourself more seriously and only converse with those who can show you up front that they're looking for what you're looking for. If you didn't join the site to be 'entertained' and 'texted' occasionally' then refuse to waste time with the men who use the site for those reasons and those reasons only. If you go into it accepting to be 'entertained' then 'entertained' and 'texted' will be exactly what you'll get.

If a man sees that you're willing to deflect away from the very reason you signed up for the site to begin with, they will play with you. So this guy is witty and you like him for it! So what! You didn't sign up for 'Let's be witty.' You signed up for "Let's be witty AND show each other why it's worth us taking out our time of day to speak with each other."

2. Any man who's serious about getting to know you will not text you. He'll pick up the phone and call you. He'll be interested in who you are, what you like, and most importantly, seeing you so that he can put a face to all the good things he's hearing from you over the phone. If he's not willing to do that then he's NOT that into you. And if he's not that into you, explain to yourself why you're so into him after inwardly knowing that fact. Explain to yourself why you're still wasting your own time. He's not confusing you. You're confusing yourself by going against your own gut intuition

3. Any man with common sense, who understands women, who is mature and who takes himself seriously knows that drunk texting a woman they barely know is rude, immature and a huge red flag. No man who is serious about getting to know you would do everything a man should do if he's trying to turn OFF a woman lol

This guy shouldn't be confusing you. All the signs were there from the very beginning. Your very own gut told you that something was off when you 1st read his profile. If you're going into trying to find love and yet ignoring your own gut, then you're not ready to date yet. Know what you want and demand that from the men online who want to get to know you.

Otherwise, you're gonna get what you entertain. If you don't like it and/or if that's not what you want, then stop entertaining it. Don't make your dating life more complicated than it has to be. Tell him to stop texting you, delete his number and keep it moving. Take your time online and offline more seriously. If you don't, don't b

If you don't take your own time seriously, then none of the men who find you will either. Facts of life. Is what it is.

Don't be a magnet for men just looking to 'play' or who want a part-time texting buddy when they're bored and want to use you to pass the time.

You get what you entertain. What you see is what you get. Believe your gut the 1st time. Always remember that. If you forget those things, you're very very likely to end up either walking away empty handed, or landing in the arms of a man you'll be pissed at yourself for entertaining in the 1st place, months or years later.

Wow you're so right. I kinda feel like an idiot. I let him toy with me so badly ya know.I'm the type a girl who likes FIX people or hope that a guy would change just for me. I was trying to block out all of the bad and just hope he'll come around. What was I thinking? He could've just held up a sign that said I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU OR GETTING TO KNOW YOU right in my face, would've been no different. Idk why I let men do this to me. They lie to me and I just get all optimistic and think "oh he'll come around and start liking you. How could he not?" This was a serious wakeup call thank yoy
