Not a euphemism.
I suspect that I already know the answer to this, but I’ll throw it out to the wider forum for an opinion…
I have been in correspondence with someone for several weeks now. Since before Christmas. There seems to be the necessary connection, although it’s hard to be sure being as it’s all based on fab messages.
Every time a window of opportunity exists for a meet, they disappear. I’ll give my availability for the next week or so and they’ll say “great, let’s do Tuesday”, but then not reappear until Wednesday. Or they’ll say they can do a particular day, but then not come back until a day or two later.
Last night I got a message asking if I was free, after I’d already said that I would be, but they’ve not then come back to see if I responded.
They do say that “if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is”, but I also appreciate that people have lives, jobs and responsibilities that can’t always be predicted.
Anyway. I suspect now that I’m just being lead along, and it’s time to delete and block. Your thoughts?

"Pin them down to a specific place and s specific time.
I give them one chance, cos life does happen
Then sort another time and place, if they fail the second time.
Block, no ceremony."
Last night was, by my count, the fifth time that an “opportunity” was created that then couldn’t be fulfilled. |

"What do you class as necessary connection because based on what you say they are treating you like a puppy? "
Shared situation. Common outlook.
But yes, I think I’m being played.
I have deleted and blocked them. They can get their kicks elsewhere. |

"Get rid. I feel the same at the moment. Fed up of putting all the effort in.
To be honest, I have had more entertainment from forum interaction than anything else on here.
"
Same I like the forums. Any people I’ve met in the last year or so haven’t been from here. Meeting people here isn’t for me but the forums I couldn’t leave |
