During Christmas break he was off work for a couple weeks and we talked every day, sometimes hours on the phone. He's back to work now so it hasn't been quite as often, but we were planning on going out again this weekend. Well he didn't let me know a time or place until that afternoon and I had to arrange a babysitter, which he knew I may not be able to get her on such short notice. I ended up not being able to go. We both knew from the get go that it may not work, but we both had gotten dressed anyays in case I was able to get a hold of her in time. I apologized and told him I wouldn't be able to go out and said that I would talk to him later online if he was still awake.I sent him a myspace message... I was pretty bummed out because we didn't get to go and I apologized again. Stated that I really like him and hopefully there will be another time. Well I checked later last night and it said he read it. But he hadn't responded back. And this morning there's still nothing from him. Now I guess this is a question for guys.... if this happened to you, would you decide to not take things further with the girl just because of having to break a date over not having a babysitter?

 well to be honest i think hes an idiot for letting you know so late - he could well be one of those guys who rings when he wants to and wants to go out with a girl once he has checked his mates arent going out. I think you could have had a lucky escape here..... everyone is perfect at the beginning this could be him showing his true colours. I personally wouldnt contact him again - after all he has you number/email so knows where you are if he wants you - dont chase him. Yep maybe it bugged him that you couldnt get a sitter but it was his fault - why couldnt he tell you the day before - i'm sorry there are no excuses - i mean even if you didnt have a child surely you would want to know early on if you are going and and where to???? I think he is immature and in the long run couldnt handle someone who has a child, i think he is probably used to getting his own way. I'm sorry but you must be better than to put up with someone like that -
