Hi,

I went on a couple of dates with a guy and he made plans with me for another date. A few days before the date, he called to tell me he decided to make a commitment to someone else he was seeing. That was the last time we talked. Then a month later, he sent a text message asking how I'd been doing. Why would he try to get in contact with me again and should I bother responding?

Confused

If he only sent a text to see how you're doing, I don't see a problem there. If he sent a text to see if you're free for a night out, you have to weigh this in your head - is he doing that because he wants to be friends, or is he doing that because he wants to play around?

I've had a friend come to me for advice in regards to what you just said. The difference was that my friend is like the guy who texted you. My friend asked me if he should try to be friends with someone whom he knew the girl liked him, and I said, "Of course, that is if you want to and you don't feel awkward."

shania agony auntHe sounds a total loser.I expect things didnt work out with his steady girlfriend and he has decided to txt you,hoping that you will come running or he is still with his girlfriend but wants his cake and eat it.I think you should tell him that you have moved on with your life and that he should do the same.

MilanaNYC21 agony auntIt sounds to me like this guy has NO GAME. He is pathetic by contacting you to tell you he had met another girl. In reality he should have handled the situation much better in the first place, by not meeting you until he had his other situation settled. DO NOT answer his text message, he seems quite pathetic if you ask me, definitely missing some masculine traits which believe me you DO want in a man.

just keep on walking past this guy, he made a choice and it was to be with someone else, who knows he might even be in a relationship with this other person and is having doubts and wondering what could have been if he had of picked you. or things may have not worked out and he wants to try things out with you again, but its really up to you if you want to see what this guy wants, you never know maybe he just wants to be friends with you. i personally think you should not waste your time and go find yourself a man who will focus his attention on you and you only.
