Why would you go through all the trouble of asking me out, only to stand me up.
Twice?
Seriously.
Let me tell you the story, dear friends of uber. I don't really want to tell the story, because it will only stand to show you all what a fundemental loser I am that I gave this dude a second chance.
soooooooooo
ahem
I was working, and I heard someone behind me talking. He sounded exactly like someone I know (who I won't mention, becaue that would further make me feel like a COMPLETE AND UTTER LOSER WHO TRUSTS TO EASILY AND GOT FUCKED OVER BUT SOME FUCK FROM THE INTERNET, but anyway, I heard this guy talk, and I thought "Woah, he sounds like *******!".
I turned around to see who had that voice, and it was him. He was wearing dark pants, some random t-shirt, blonde hair, nice eyes, nice build, etc... for whatever reason I felt this "wowie!" thing when I looked at him.
Then I told myself "Calm down, idiot", and got back to work. I kept noticing HIM notice me, which made my stomach do those loopy things that stomachs are prone to doing in odd situations. Then he slowly (but obviously) made his way over to me.
I am pretty gaurded, almost never jumping the gun, but for whatever reason (I know the reason, but again, uber, I'm not going to tell you), I thought "I want to go out with this dude". So I talked with him for a good forty minutes, doing my best (which isn't much) to flirt and show interest.
Don't get me wrong- I wasn't throwing myself at him at all. Those of you who have met me know that I'm pretty quiet... so when I say "I was being flirtiatious", all it means is that I was acting realitivly normal.
He had to leave, and casually asked for my email address.
yeah baby yeah! I did it!
So I wrote it down, handed it over, said bye, etc.
The next day he came in again. We only talked for a few minutes due to how busy I was. He left, and came back to give me his yahoo ID.
Yeah, shut up, I know that seems inhearently dorky, but... whatever. I'm trying to be less judgemental of people, and I'm online all the time, so... yeah.
Anyway... we exchange yahoo IDs, he leaves to go to work, and I feel quite satisfied at having a guy interested in me.
Then he IMs me that night... we talk a bit. He says he wants to hang out. We make plans for Wednesday.
He's very open about how he thinks I'm interesting, intellegent, cute, and "not like anyone I've ever met". He's adamant about wanting to spend time with me.
Wednesday comes and goes, with no word from him. He IMs me on thursday, saying "Sorry, I had to work".
Alright, I can deal with that, no big deal. So we talk a few more times online, most conversations being led by him and his "great communication skills". He's very open about how he felt a spark when he met me, and can't wait to get to know me, and then last night he's adamant about making plans for Monday.
I can do that. I have monday off.
Well, guess what? Yeaaaaaaaaah. It's Monday.
It makes no god damn sense, and because of my last god damn situation I jsut went through with a guy, I feel somewhat prematurely scarred by all this... but- why would a guy who:
1. Made the first move
2. Made the first communication attempts
3. Set up BOTH dates
4. Was "open" about how he found me interesting
5. Whatever the fuck who cares
Stand me up, TWICE?
And then, the obvious question:
Why would I let him??
(because I always give people the benifit of the date, and because I'm horny and not wanting to have meaningless sex, so therefore looking for someone I feel strongly about, that way I can get sex and love and be SO FUCKING HAPPY!)
haha
Great post, I know.
Fuck all.

You know when you exchange yahoo id's with a guy it's like exchanging yahoo id's with every girl that he's exchanged yahoo id's with and every guy that every one of those girls exchanged yahoo id's with.

Is this a new Uberpoll??? It's got enough cryptic clues to be one.
OK but seriously, just wait till he calls and ask him why he stood you up again. If you don't like his answer, tell him to sort his life out. Give him one more chance, and if he ruins that one too, then fuck it. Tell him he had his chances. All three of them.
Then start over looking for someone else.

darko, you're not getting it. playing the game to see how she reacts will never be an indication of how good she is at being honest. it will *only* show how good she is at playing the game. honesty will never be brought about by dishonesty, it just doesn't work. if you want to guard yourself, fine, but don't pretend that you're doing anything that will lead to: "they actually get to the point where they can actually get to know and to like each other." if it's all built on lies and illusions, 'smoke and mirrors'(chortle chortle), you'll never "actually" get to know anything about each other. why do you think most of those sorts of relationships fail? because eventually, the true selves start coming out, and even though *sometimes* compatibility remains, the divergence between truth and fiction is usually far too great for any mutual interest to remain.

Haha... have you SEEN some of the shit I've posted? I post a lot... and most of it is innane drivel.
Just because I cared to post it doesn't mean that it's on the forefront of my mind. It was just something to post.
The things I DO get obsessed about, I DON'T post about. If I wasn't so protective of my obsessive self, I'd give some examples, but I'd rather not.
Someone just told me last night that I seem weak with all my questions and digs for insight... but once they got to know me, they realized I wasn't insecure... just introspective.
I'll often ask questions that I know the answer to, just to see what the other persons opinion is. Not to see if I am "right", or if they are "right"... just to see.
BUT, I'm arguing about something that is besides the point... You're probably right, he is trying to play some asshole game, he's probably not single, and he's an asshole. I won't argue with that.
I defend myself against the obsession comment only because it isn't true in this situation.

i didn't say you cared -i said you're getting obsessed. it's a strong term, so i can see why you'd refuse to submit to it; but whichever word *is* appropriate, the fact is that what he's (not) done has imprinted itself on your mind potently enough to drive you to reveal the situation to a universe of strangers, and ask them for their insight(although there are admittedly some among us that you know well -which is pointless, because if that were a retort it would just come back to you as 'then why didn't you ask them and only them'). i didn't say that he's already got a hold on you; i said that, if he's good at what he is(or, at least, seems to be) doing, he WILL -i.e. in the future. thing is, by now, you really have no way of knowing whether he has a legitimate reason or whether he's just playing the game. the better and more realistic & acceptable his reason becomes, the more likely it is that it's part of the ploy. paradox.

what the fuck is this bullshit? what is wrong with you? it's exactly this that's wrong with the world. forgive me for being so critical, but after all that other shit i just spewed out, i'm feeling like lashing out, and even though pain is not really the enemy at all, it's easy to think of that way, and (momentarily) satisfying. so, fuck off.
-----------------------------------------------
Don't blame me. Guys and girls gaurd themselves in certain ways. The way I said is one of the ways guys gaurd themselves. How can you expect a guy to let down his gaurd to someone he doesn't know? And a guy has no way of trusting a girl until she plays his game and he plays her and they actually get to the point where they can actually get to know and to like each other. Given the possibility of a girl he doesn't know getting hurt and himself getting hurt the guy will always pick the girl. So who cares if she gets hurt feelings, she was nothing to him anyways. Play the game and show the guy that he doesn't need to play mind games with you. The only way to get them to stop.

Istaros,
No, I'm not obsessing over this particular guy. I didn't have enough contact, nor like the contact that I DID have with him, enough to make me stuck in this particular situation.
We've talked a total of probably five times, in which he was much busier trying to flatter me than I was to reciprocate. I actually get pretty closed up and un-emotional with new people.
That alone doesn't discount the fact that he is playing at something. Either way, I don't care.
Not to say that guys who I DID care about haven't done similar things to me.
If I do bother asking him what his excuse is, and allowing him to try to explain his way out of it, it will only be out of curiousity.
And you're right- people can't change their personalities. I think a lot of our problems stem from people actually trying to do that. It causes internal conflict, depression, blah blah blah.
So, like I said, I'm sensitive, and a bit guillible... but oh well.

you ask why this guy would stand you up. the answer?
because he knows that by doing it, you're going to obsess over it *exactly* the way you're doing now.
Loren1 is wrong, in regards to people not knowing what they're doing. not in general; in general, she's right. but this is *very* obviously an instance of a guy treating you like nothing so that you'll treat him like everything.
if you want to be the kind of person who values substance over appearance, depth and intimacy over happiness and pleasure, follow Loren1's advice. i can sympathize with what you(and, heavily, wanderingsharps) are saying, with what you're feeling. i wish i too could be cold, removed, selfish, a power-monger, an asshole, someone who needs only himself to be happy, and for whom sadness and ecstasy are but momentary flings with passion. it's risky to say something like that, to say that 'if i could change in this way, i would,' because the truth is that the truth about unreality will never be known; the only way to find out if you'd truly be happy with a change of personality is to have it happen, and it never will. even if you adopt the motions of the change, at the core you'll never change. and even if you could, there's simply too many side effects to everything to really know whether or not it would be at all like you imagined it. we can only know what we already have; unfortunately, being human, what we have is the very thing we desire the least.
unless, of course, you *are* one of those self-servients. i'm not going to judge them. i've known too many of them intimately to be able to group them into a category -doing something like that is really just a way of convincing yourself to hate them. it doesn't really help you at all, or anybody else for that matter. with people who have this level of vulnerability, the kind that you're expressing and the kind that makes me fear myself, power is just distasteful. it's kind of depressing; the one thing that could theoretically make us happier, more cavalier, really only ends up making us feel terrible, because we have aspirations for goodness and fairness and balance. we suffer for a moment, and it extends into eternity.
we'd like to be one of those who suffer one moment, and rejoice the next, and feel it all intensely then and there, without having to brood over the sensation for what seems like a lifetime. some of them, as i know from personal experience, are also extremely sensitive; sensitivity is not as cut-and-dry as Loren1 suggests. this personality trait, this moment-focused self-engrossment, is more OBVIOUS when it's displayed by assholes, yes; but there are definitely wonderful people who have it too.
however: this fellow is definitely not one of them. he's an asshole.* the sad thing is you'll probably think about him, desire him, for a long time from now. if he's especially good at the game, his effect on you will stay for the rest of your life. there's really no hope for the human species. it's definitely tempting to think that the assholes and power-players got it all right, because it seems only they are ever really satisfied(even though this is really just an illusion; but that's a whole other topic). their happiness may seem false to us, but at least it's present, right?
anyway, do what you like. not what you think is best, or what feels right, or any other similar bullshit. nothing will work out, and the assholes realize this, that's why they can be happy; they don't have any delusions of grandeur. romanticism is a curse. i should know -i sound like the worst of cynics here, i know, but i didn't start out that way. and it's really just a defense... in the end: nothing we can say would show you what's right. that's something you have to decide for yourself. we're all alone in the world, and as much as we may try to guide you, the truth is we're only speaking from the viewpoint of OUR OWN lives. your destiny is your own, and unfortunately, you have 0 control over it.
and i thought "benefit of the date" was intentional, pretty funny either way.
*there's always the possibility of being wrong -insufficient information(even the 'irrelevant' stuff), lack of personal contact, etc. and nothing is impossible, there's always a chance for anything, even if it is infinitesimally small. however, if it were down to a wager, i'd bet at least a hundred bucks this guy is doing what he's doing with at least an element of purpose; at best, he's taking advantage of a situation(having to work, for example) to affect you. and i have less than 30 in the bank...

haha caesar... Yeah, I'm 99% sure I don't have a job.
I really hated working there, but it's still sad that I fucked up.
And, it's actually pretty out of character. I'm usually not late, absent, blah blah blah... but ever since I transfered to this new store I have been horrible about actually BEING at work at the right time/day.
Oh well.
You know, it's actually pretty liberating. I bought a book today (oh no, buying things when I have no job!) about writing, creativity, and the process of... well, writing creativly. Now I'm pretty excited about seriously writing.
Plus I worked out for a good hour today, which is about 55 minutes longer than I usually work out for.
PLUS I am tapering off of my zoloft.
PLUS I got birth control.
The birth control is to control my moods... I think that's a better idea than an anti-depressant, seeing as how I'm not really depressed, just hormonal.
Plus, who doesn't like not working?!?!

Ah Loren, I love you.
That's what I've been thinking all day, "I need to stop being such a pushover, I need to stop trusting people, I need to stop giving them excuses, I need to just put my foot down and shun everyone", etc...
Because I have been feeling like I am the odd man out in this game of life. Everyone else seems to have this underlying manipulative thing going on- the whole lack of empathy, and it seems like everyone else is able to de-personalize people.
If that makes sense.
I was uncomfortable with changing. I don't WANT to see people as pawns in my life, but I was trying to talk myself into doing it.
But you just talked me out of it.
I'm so fickle.
And very sensitive.
DO YOU HEAR ME, UBER??
I am very sensitive.
Lets all embrace my sensitivity now.
Anyway, thanks Loren.

There are people who are considerate, and there are scumbags. It's rare that either change. So don't you. Just recognize the scumbags for what they are, and never, ever blame yourself! Being a trusting person only goes to show that you can be trusted, it does not ever make you a "loser" - in fact, it means quite the opposite.
I used to let these types bring me down and make me feel that something was wrong with me, and not just the guys, but my female "friends" that felt it was OK to make plans with me and not show up. It would happen over and over again... because they always assumed I would forgive them, and I probably did forgive them unconditionally too many times for my own good.
These types of people, I've learned (unfortunately) have NO concept that they are doing anything wrong. They honestly have no idea that their actions hurt people, because they can't see passed themselves and their own agendas. This is in no way serve in their defense, it's just something that good people - people who THINK about other people - need to remember for their own sanity.
If he asks to get together with you again (and most likely he will), simply tell him that masochism isn't your thing.
fin.
I'm sorry, it sucks to get played with.

all right , 2 things to say...
1) obvisuoly I will never date again due to low tech levels...I can freaken rebuild a mazda racing engine, but Aim and cellphones are beyond me (plus, holding a device that may cause cancer straight to my head? fuck that shit! I'll kill the brain cells old fashioned way, with alchohal, thank you)
2) people- men and women both, have forgotten that everyone else around them is a person- someons with feelings, needs, things that they have to do, etc. We all forgot somewhere that everyone is not some TV show that doesn't care if you shut it off.
now the reasons why he stood you up...those are all just cover ups to the fact he's an ass. And the funny thing is, when someone treats us like this-like we arn't a person, it only makes you want to spend time with him just so that you can show him you are a person! how fucked up is that shit, huh?
jesus, Im sounding like doctor phil or some shit like that. I understand how you feel, as a "friend" invited me down to her place for the weekend, and just cancelled. Mind you, she called me two weeks ago to set this up, I had to find someone to cover shifts that I rather need the money as I'm moving to Iowa in 2 months, and I had to set up a ride as she lives in a fucking NY, 4 hours a way, and she fucking Emails me to say "whoops, have to go visit the folks"...
I think I should stop typing now...
sorry he's an ass- you seem to have a good sense of humor...I've never seen a pic, but you seem like a fun person, wich is hard to find. I'm sure that a decent guy will happen.

Listen, Number 4 - the one about being open about finding you interesting - that's a fucking line. He might never admit it, but it's still a line...
Like the "I feel like I can really talk to you" which is (in translation) I think you're a sensitive one, and I think this will let me get in your knickers.
Anyway, I say let him have strike two (which I don't think their will be) and after that fuck him off.
In transalation fuck him off means - get shot/rid of him. don't bother with him again etc.
Finally, HAVE A BIT MORE FAITH IN YOURSELF DAMNIT or I will smack you. He didn't walk over to you for nothing... ! Jesus. You're so going to get a wallop if you don't sort this shit out...

Corn, I can help you. I myself am a man, based on this I can offer up the following consolation.
He probably forgot....
-------------------------
I agree. Here's an actual conversation with my husband:
him: Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to shut it off then. I intended to. (speaking about the tv)
me: Sure you did.
him: I did, I meant to. My mind slips sometimes. I'm not forgetful, it's just that a brain can only hold so many items, and if you put too many in, some fall out. It's like overfilling a cup. A cup is only so big, and I'm just a man.
seeeee.... they don't mean to do the things they do.
Although I also agree with the ego boosting theory.

It has nothing to do you with you but we males are, for the most part, forgetful.

It's a way of keeping the girl interested. Mind games are fun. Drive her crazy making her think you like her enough to think about her but not that much to actually go out of your way for her. It's just a control issue me thinks, him making sure you want to see him more than he wants to see you. And during the mean time he is probably with some girl he did this to in the past.

Corn, baby, just don't let yourself start thinking it's something to do with you or it's your fault. We males are fucked-up, finicky creatures; we don't even know what we want most of the time.
****************************************
Er, I disagree. I think that generally women are the finicky ones, and men usually know what they want. Poo-swah, as the French say. Though I will submit that men sometimes get jumpy when they get into situations where they start to have them whaddayacallits, FEELINGS, because we're supposed to be the strong tough-guys in control and when we find one's self wrapped around a girl's finger, that can sometimes be disconcerting. "I'm such a stud, but...I WUV her!"
Though given that you never actually went on a date with him, I don't think that's the case here. Sounds like he's just an jerkass.

Dude's obviously got something going on. Are you sure he's even single in the first place? It sounds like he's trolling for side action, but only when he can get away with it.
If I had been dragged behind a stampeding bison for 8 miles through cacti-covered desert, had my legs broken by Chuck Zito AND been shoved through the ice of a frozen lake, I wouldn't break a date I had made with someone. (I'd put the standard guy, "least of all someone like you, Corinne." here, but I'm just a lonely, horny insomniac and I don't feel like hearing the standard "ass-kisser" insults that might result... oh, wait...)
Corn, baby, just don't let yourself start thinking it's something to do with you or it's your fault. We males are fucked-up, finicky creatures; we don't even know what we want most of the time.

So there's this guy, who actually wants to see you and date you, but legitimately got hung up working really late, and got really busy, and couldn't get hold of you to make alternative plans.
Or maybe there's this guy who gets off on making girl's excited about maybe dating him, but never actually follows through and sees them, because he's only interested in knowing that they like him, which boosts his frail ego.
Or maybe there's this guy who gets a thrill out of playing the "game" whenever he can, because he knows he's charming, good-looking and able to get away with it, because he actually has a girlfriend, but is always looking forward to that 'next one'.
Anyway, so there's this guy, and he's an ass.

----------------------------------------------
Somewhat explains it. Why would a guy want a hot chick if he wanted sex? Hot chicks are constantly being offered sex and who would want the competition? Plus decent looking chicks who haven't been hit on as much might not have enough experience to see through all of the lines. If the guy doesn't end up getting sex than big deal, it was just an average looking girl he blew it with. And worse case scenario occurs and he actually starts dating the girl than he a) won't be jealous all of the time because he won't fear that she can do better and b) hopefully have her doing everything in her powers to keep him happy and around.
