I have been online dating on and off for a few years and just haven't found that special chemistry. I emailed a guy from a dating site back in August and he finally replied just this month telling me his job kept him busy for that time of the year. We began emailing back and forth and I knew right away that I loved his personality. A few weeks ago we started talking on the phone for hours at a time. We both have the same sense of humor and a huge amount in common. I had never laughed so much in my life. We were going to have our first date last weekend. I was so excited...I got up to read my email and he told me he had to cancel the date because he had lost his job over the weekend due to downsizing.

He told me to call and we would talk about it. I called left a message..He did not call back..I have not heard from him since. I emailed him and told him I would be here if he needed to talk. He has not replied.

My question is Should I just leave this alone and move on?

Thank you

Spaces1965 agony auntWell I just wanted to update you all that I heard from him again about a week after I asked for your advice. We had our first date a couple weeks ago after logging tons of hours talking on the phone. When we met the sparks flew and we have been an item ever since. I have never felt this way about any one. I can truly be myself with this man and we are constantly laughing. I am so happy that he came back into my life. Let's see if he stays...lol

Collaroy agony auntHi,

sure he may have lost his job, but given his history of contact with you my best bet is he is playing games with you.

Online dating sites are full of all sorts of social misfits, you have to be very careful.

Put this one down to bad experience and move on.

good luck.

Serinity agony auntI would give it a little bit of time before you give up. If he really did lose his job then that could be why he's not available right now. He's probably an emotional wreck with the fear of finding a new job and loss of income and probably feeling somewhat inadequate. I wouldn't constantly ring him but maybe send him a short e-mail to let him know that you are still available if he wants to talk about it and that you miss his conversations. If he doesn't answer you in about 2 weeks you might consider trying to become unattached. Good luck!
