He's 38. She broke it off because she was still getting over a bad breakup (still in love with ex). But she texted him after our date, and I haven't heard from him since (I sent him an e-mail a week ago). What gives? Should I cut my losses and move on? I'm 34, can't compete with a 24-year-old twinkie.

3 Words..DROP THIS GUY.
He shows you no respect. This guy is NOT worth missing. I wouldn't even answer his calls.
Good luck

Hi,
I think you know what to do without anyone telling you.
Give this one a miss, talking about a 24 year old "hottie" to you just after a date is shallow, insensitive and cruel.
You can do better.
If she blows him off, you might just get another call, I'd hang up if I were you.
good luck

You can compete with a 24 year old twinkie. If the guy is mature and tired of dealing with flighty 20 somethings then you have it all over her and you need to remind yourself of how amazing you really are....instead of worrying about him wanting you, worry about whether or not he is right for you.
You have had one date with him and already you are worried about hanging on to him.....don't wait by the phone, live your own life, go on dates with as many men as you want to and eventually some man will be right for you and realize how amazing you are and he won't let you go.
It has only been a week, don't call him again, let him chase you, if he doesn't then you have your answer.

Move on immediately...one thing you will never be again is 24...he obviously got what he deserved for dating a kid and he sure does not deserve a second chance with you....What a loser not only to chat with you but to talk about the kid...cut him off immediately! You deserve better.
