Why is he doing this? What should I do?

So there's this guy I used to like a lot.

We'd chat on the phone and text a lot. We went on a date once and we really hit it off.

He knew how I felt about him and always thought he felt the same. Cause of the way he'd stare at me and compliment me.

All the phone calls and texts stopped and whenever we'd arrange to go out to the movies or dinner he'd just not show up or even call to cancel. Whenever I'd ask him why he always let's me down he says he's got 2 jobs and is always tired and he needs to sleep.

I liked him a lot and I gave him chances but he kept standing me up.

I told him how I felt and said I wasn't interested in his games anymore.

Is been four months now and he's calling me and texting me.

But I don't want to speak to him. I don't know what to say.

What should I do?

Or continue to ignore/hit delete. Eventually he'll give up. He sounds very unreliable to me and I doubt that will change in the future.

BondGirl72 agony auntHe does have two jobs, so he probably is tired. If he wants a relationship with you, he should make some time for you. Does he have any days off? Maybe you should ask when his next day off is and see if he would like to do something fun and relaxing. You can tell him that going out with you will be a relaxing night of dinner and maybe a movie then ice cream afterward? Or, the two of you could go get a massage together. Maybe he is really trying this time to get with you. It's up to you what you want to do, but if you want to be with a man who works two jobs, you will need to go out when he can not degrade him for always being tired.

janniepeg agony auntIt could really be that he is tired but did not want to disappoint you by saying point blank, no. You tell him you can't see him anymore because you expect more than the once a month deal or whenever there's a chance he is not tired. He likes you too but he needs to straighten his priority out. When he is trying to make money too fast he has to sacrifice in other areas, like family and romantic time.
