I dunno if I expect her to owe me anything, but having an answer would be nice I guess. It's just wanting to know why I guess.


I know what you're saying.

Knowing "Why", a woman does not show any interest, is really not your concern...in fact even if she told you why she "Didn't"... probably would not make any sense to you, or any straight male, anyway.

Certain situations with women, we just don't need the answers they would give.

Move on to the next... and then the next... if you do this assembly line style, eventually , and so much faster, you WILL find a woman you click with.

Also , I'll remind you, todays woman, has her own wallet. Never feel obligated to buy her food nor drink. She's out to "Meet" you , not replenish her electrolytes on your money.

Also don't forget to just go out on the town, however that might be, and see who you can connect with.


whoisagentj replies on 5/9/2019 1:53 pm:
I can see what you are saying. I think even IF I got an answer, I probably would have just said "Ok, thanks for letting me know, although you're wacked in the head, but that's your prerogative."

Actually, I'm starting to exhaust a lot of the women in field of what I'm looking for right now. And I don't feel like driving 100 miles to find someone. I've already got it expanded to 50 miles and for the Chicago area, that's a huge circle of people to choose from.

And I think I just might have to go out and see if I can find someone for what it's worth. I think getting out might be the answer, however, approaching them is an altogether different issue.

I cant stand rude people and she certainly fits my image of rude. If she no longer reads your blog, give it a rest. Too bad she cant see the responses you got. It wont wake her up but she'll know other now will be leery of "talking" to her. Yep she wasted your time and pissed you off. One of these days you can mention her blog title and we'll see what kind of person she really is. Find some other ladies and have some coffee- we do have nice women on here

whoisagentj replies on 5/8/2019 6:36 am:
See, here's the thing...if I DID out her blog and her, then some of you might want to go over there and attack her for how she treated me. Which is why part of me was really hesitant to even mention her or her blog.

With what everyone has said here, the main thing has been for me to move on. Which I've already done. I've sent her one last message telling her how I felt, and with that, I got my closure. I'll let you know in my next post coming up shortly...

I left out something- a lot of people have problems in life that they hide- like responding to what you wanted- maybe she had good intentions and then realized she wasn't ready to actually meet you- other problems in life also change people to change their minds also- I was looking at it from one point- frustration with people not doing what they say- instead of realizing that people have there own reasons for not responding back or not showing- of course there are the one who want you to go thru another website ect- I just move on- good luck dancing


whoisagentj replies on 5/8/2019 6:33 am:
Thanks qrst50. Some wise words to ponder sir!

    Quoting whoisagentj:
    Well, so far it's been a unanimous concent to move on, with I totally agree with. It sucks that she couldn't tell me the reason why, but it is what it is, so I'm planning on getting on with my life. I appreciate the advice folks. It's helped me clear my head and do just that.
You move on, even when you do send an invite to a woman... you keep searching for more women. Never stop at just one.

Lets say a woman does agree to meet you, and by god she shows up.... great, she has shown up to a meeting. This is good for you because now you've gotten ahead of the online competition.

Still , this doesn't mean you stop sending invitation to women to meet you. You are not obligated to only be "Meeting" or "Dating" just one woman.


whoisagentj replies on 5/8/2019 6:29 am:
Once again Heathen, you are correct. Right now, I'm just trying to get out there and meet women at the moment.

She doesn't owe you any explanation.

The more you hold onto that idea , [about any woman] "A woman owes me an explanation" ..... the more power you give her over you.


Do not waste your time with just one woman. Never expect any woman to explain herself. I doubt if she could , anyway. Doesn't matter if she can , though.

Once upon a time you decided to join a social site, happens to be a hookup site...... take advantage of that to your full potential..... seek out as many women as you want. But never just one... and never wait around for a woman to get back to you.

Allow me to throw dirt on it. You are so nice, so I will say it. She’s a BITCH.
You’re welcome. 😉
Spend your time on a good woman.


whoisagentj replies on 5/8/2019 6:26 am:
Thank you for the kind words! Now I just have to find a good woman!

Sadly, whatever happened to cause the no-show, the lack of communication now is the main issue. Apparently she doens't want to communicate and there's not much you can do about that.
But.... silence speaks volumes about (lack of) character so maybe it's best the ghosting happened now before you even met, rather than later.


whoisagentj replies on 5/8/2019 6:25 am:
Again, have to agree with that as well. I guess if this had to happen, I rather it would have happened before I gotten any true emotional attachments to this person. It still hurts, but if anything, it's more annoying than anything else.

move on she isn't interested or she would have showed up sunday

Yep. Agreed. That seems to be the unanimous consent here.

Typical thing that happens on other sites also- yes one does get upset by the rudeness of other people- the thing is you expected someone who you talked to be honest- a few people I know took me to country western dance lessons- If you can do that and smile you won't have to worry about how bad a fisherman you are


whoisagentj replies on 5/7/2019 10:49 am:
Thanks qrst50. I'll be honest, I can barely tolerate country music. LOL! So I think that's a no go for me.

Chalk it up to a fail on their part and move on. Yes, sometimes things happen on the other end that the stars just don't align. Yet when the other party doesn't communicate, or return messages, don't take it personally. I've been meeting people on-line, then in the real world almost since the internet got started. Meet and Greets to me are the best way to put a face to a name. I also always meet somewhere public first, even if it is a FWB. The ex and I used to meet a lot of "couples" where for one reason of another the wife/gf "just couldn't make it.." She and I always met them in public, with the fixed rule, "No gal, No Way Pal." She and I also met many solo males, IF they were honest, and didn't ever say or imply they wanted my wife to loose me so he could have her alone. Finally, a warning: I had a recent "couple" chat me up, they wanted to meet me, they liked my profile, provided some pictures, ect. I set up a meeting at a public bar. The guy was barely recognizable from the pictures. No woman with him. We talked, and he bluntly asked me to go out to his truck and blow him. We had this discussion as I am a Bi top, and only if the wife/gf got off on watching her man get used. I paid the bar tab, buying him his drink, and said goodbye and no longer interested. The next day, my passion e-mail had a note from him. Someone had taken pictures of the meeting, my car, ect. He then attempted to extort sex and $$$$ or he was going to OUT me. I reported him to passion and the Police. Thankfully the local Police take Cyber crime VERY serious. It's a crazy world out there, and bottom line, many on here are "posers." That said, YOU are Not the problem, they are.

Well... if you're reading her blog.... and she's reading your blog... then that boat has sailed.
If you wanted to keep it low... you shouldn't have posted all the info about the fuck up. Who knows? Maybe she had a valid excuse. Now? Forget it buddy.
Move on. Who cares what her excuse was. Unless she was hit by a bus.
Was she hit by a bus? That's one of the only excuses that work for me.


whoisagentj replies on 5/7/2019 9:49 am:
Well I know she wasn't hit by a bus because she posted a blog yesterday. As for me reading her blog and she reading mine, I know she hasn't read my blog yet because her profile hasn't shown up on my blog yet. So I don't think she's a regular reader of my blog.
I guess it's just the need to actually KNOW what happened.

The best revenge is simply rising above it and getting on with life instead of letting someone who proved themselves insignificant get under your skin.


whoisagentj replies on 5/7/2019 9:45 am:
I've heard that before and you are correct. I guess it's my need to educate the person who did that to me to let them know that what they did to me was wrong.

Don't waste your time. Move on. Adults often act like scared teenagers. You don't need to validate that behavior.


whoisagentj replies on 5/7/2019 9:43 am:
I'm right there with ya. Nor do I want to validate it either. But it's that need to confront her and tell her what she did isn't ok.

Walk away man.... move one! I know we HATE to do that, but its the only way!


whoisagentj replies on 5/7/2019 9:41 am:
Bro, I'm like 99.99% ready to do so. It's just the not knowing why she didn't bother to show up is the killer. It's like a splinter in the mind which is fucking with my head at the moment.

give her the option of answering why she did what she did..if she doesnt then message her or however you communicated with her and politely tell her that you are moving on..i would much rather ask first then if i get no responce i thank them ...between clenched teeth and middle finger raised in the air...lol then move on..if they do this then they dont get a second chance unless they have a legit answer ...but in having little trust here i dont know if i would believe them anyway...sorry it happens i know first hand ..but life isnt fair...


whoisagentj replies on 5/7/2019 9:38 am:
Here's the thing....if she had a legit reason, like something serious happened, then I look like a dick. However, if she doesn't have a solid reason, then I'm vindicated and she's the jerk.
The problem is if I get nothing from her as to any answer, and I pursue her for an answer, then I come off all stalker-ish, and that's not me.

I'd love an answer from her either way. But if she choses to not answer me at all, then I'm left in the dark. And add to it, she'll think this is ok to up and stand a guy up for no reason and be a jerk about it.

But you are correct, life isn't fair, and I might be stuck not knowing what happened ever.

My advice...walk away. Be the better person. She has not responded to your (2?) requests...pursuing begins to look like stalking!


whoisagentj replies on 5/7/2019 9:34 am:
Yeah, I don't want to stalk her, but I did just wanted her to at least answer me. Trust me, I'm not a stalker-type. If she doesn't answer me, I'll definitely move on.

pretty sure she just is going to continue to ignore you. Sad but true. No idea why people do this, but it sucks. I am talking to someone who also seems too good to be true, and haven't even gotten brave enough to ask about an in person meet because then the "dream" is over and I know it isn't real anymore. Rejection sucks big time!


whoisagentj replies on 5/7/2019 9:33 am:
I hate to say it, but you might be right. No matter what happens, I'll have to move on regardless, whether she answers me or not.
