Question - (17 February 2015) 3 Answers - (Newest, 19 February 2015)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I feel an idiot , my friend and I had feeling for each other and was going to make a go of it , then he said he was confused and didn't know what he wanted. We made plans to see each other but panicked and cancelled. He now told me he went on a date with another woman and has made palns to meet up with her again. :e tells me he likes me and then does that , he says it might not go anywhere with her. I feel an idiot believing he actually liked me and wanted to take it further then just get brushed aside because someone else comes along. I know I don't want it to work for them and he told me she already has issues because of the large age gap there is , I'm probably wrong to wait a few week for him just incase , I know everyone says someone will come along who's right for you and there's plenty of decent guys but there isn't. I'm not major shy but not exactly attractive there's nothing I need to work on , I just don't get any guys chatting me up or show any interest. What am I doing wrong ? I'm just destined to be alone forever

malvern agony auntThis man is a complete waste of time, you must not wait for him. You can do a lot better than him as there are plenty of men around who would never do something like this to you. As suggested in another answer, join a dating website. Don't 'chat' to anybody longer than a couple of weeks though. If they haven't arranged to meet you within that time then it's unlikely they will ever arrange to meet you. Just move on until you find somebody who's worthy of you.

SensitiveBloke agony auntThis guy is not interested in you, so forget him.

If you want to meet new people, why not join a dating website?

Honeypie agony auntI can't say that there is ANYTHING wrong with you, except maybe that fact that you are willing to SIT and WAIT to see if they work out or not.. Just no. HE had a chance to DATE you, to BE with you and he BLEW it because he was unsure.

You say no guys chat you up. Are you always that passive? As in you WAIT for MEN to chat you up? Do you go out? Do you socialize ? Met new people? Or do you stick to familiar face and places?

Whatever you are doing now isn't working, so it's time to look back and see what you did, so you can TRY something new.
