Question - (18 March 2016) 4 Answers - (Newest, 20 March 2016)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, *OSEWOOD writes:

Met a guy and hes single with 3 young children who live with his ex. He works away all week comes back for the weekend.

We went for a walk because i suggested it, chatted for a hour then i thought he might of said to go for lunch but he didnt, he gave me a little kiss and went.

Texted me to say he really enjoyed himself. I said it was only a walk but he said he just did. I asked him why he didnt suggest going for lunch or to meet the next evening, said he was nervous.

Do you think he was or he just wasnt bothered? He said he wanted to hold my hand and kiss me more liked what he saw. He seens a nice man but i was put off by his teeth and i think he was limping a bit.

I said he doesnt seem to have the time for a woman with him working all week and seeing his kids, he said he probably hasnt. He did say to meet when the kids are off. Should i bother with him or not because hes away all week. I would like a man to be there not working away and fitting me in when he can.

I'm *rosewood who done this topic. Thankyou for your replies and I agree with what you all say but I do like it when he text me like he had been for two weeks before we met. he sent me one the day after meeting saying he wasn't well thinks it was something he ate when he went out, this was the same day we had met. He asked how I was told him I had gone out myself for a meal he didn't ask anything about it and didn't text til 10 hours later. He asked how I was again said he was still ill had his kids but took them home after a hour. Why do you think he didn't text for so long. I was wondering if he was lying to me about being ill because after we had met I asked him why he didn't mention about meeting the next night and going for a meal and he said because he was nervous then asked if I wanted to go out. Was this a excuse not to see me again and why bother texting me after we met if he wasn't interested why not just delete my number.

Honeypie agony auntYou really don't sound like you are into him. I mean talk about nitpicking.. He was limping a bit? Seriously?

If he is not able to make you a higher priority than he is right now (I can see his kids coming before you, regardless) - and he doesn't seem to actually HAVE the time for dating either.

Let him go, wish him well and the move on.

mystiquek agony auntIts probably best that you just let things end. You already sound disappointed and letting things go further will more than likely just cause more disappointment and frustration. Its ok to want more..I'd move on.

Ciar agony auntShort answer: NO. If you're already put off by his teeth and finding his schedule a problem, then investing more of yourself is only going to lead to more dissatisfaction.

Quit while you're ahead. just quietly and gracefully bow out.
