why do guys disappear off the face of the earth rather than say they don't want to see you anymore, then a few months later, message and expect to pick back up |

Because they think you're a soft touch?

"Couldn't tell you. Bit rude though. Unless yjeh are literally just here for sex and once they've had it gone till next time. "
I can't speak for others, but, I don't mind that... If they say that's what their deal is! |

Men usually don’t like confrontation and would prefer to ghost than face a thousand questions as to why. It drives me nuts in the dating world, I like brutal honesty so I can forget and move on. |

I won't be a hypocrite and say I haven't done this because I have. But what I will say is it's not always as cut and dry as it seems, for me personally life comes first so if something happens in life that needs my time then this is the first place I ditch to create that time. |

It's called 'ghosting', some people would call it 'backbenching', too. At the time they got bored with you/life got in the way/their conscience was nagging them too much etc. Or they found a 'better offer'. Then suddenly things changed again and they decided you could be worth their effort again. Apparently, it's quite normal nowadays... Very annoying though. |

I'd also like to add that ultimately this is a lifestyle and people shouldn't really expect an explanation. Vanilla life is separate and should always come first, rather than delving into reasons just meet them again if you want to or pass up on it. There could be a million reasons but more often than not it won't be the response you want or it will be disingenuous, either way just follow your gut based on how well you know them. |

Women do it frequently as well, usually because something better has caught their eye. Then for whatever reason it doesn't work out and they think they'll give good ol' doormat a call because they want some company.  |

I don’t really separate this as it’s my lifestyle full stop. I don’t have 2 separate worlds. |

"Have you (call me pragmatic) asked them ?
They're the only ones who can or could say why, everyone else is guessing .  "
In circumstances where I've had this happen, I did ask, and they tend to be evasive, non responsive, or flat out lie.
Communication only works if everyone is communicating. |

I can understand that. There are a select few I place enough trust in to maintain contact with and am happy to chat to even in the dark times. For me personally though I'd much rather just take a break when needed and to me there's nothing worse than people asking you questions like 'what's wrong' non stop because you're a little distant etc. I let people close know I'm leaving for a while. Then again I mostly chat to fellow forumites rather than meeting people mainly because I can't commit to regular meets these days. |

Well the last time I went awol I lost a child and a few weeks later my partner was killed by a reckless driver. Which is what I meant by it's not always cut and dry. My head was (still is) so far up my arse that speaking to anyone was the last thing on my mind and more so the follow up questions I would've gotten wouldn't have helped any. |

That may also be what happens if the op asks the bloke as well or he might tell her why..Until that time everyone else is still guessing
My guess he was taken against his will and held hostage by sex starved ladies and they let him go when he was no further use... .. |

Often...
Attached bloke is horny
Attached bloke goes on fabs
He gets chatting to someone
He gets hornier and has a wank
He cums
He's no longer horny
He feels guilty and stops all contact with fabs person
A few days later
He's horny again
He's back on fabs and messages fabs person
Repeat ad nauseum |

I’m so sorry to hear that, that’s awful. I can’t imagine what you went through but yes, time out of here would be no question about it. Hope you are doing ok now. xx |

When you find the answer, can you then look into why (some of) the women here string you along with just enough interest to keep you on the hook, but always have some excuse as to why they cant meet? |

Simple, the wife had got suspicious, so he cools things for a while until she stops sniffing around, and then when the coast is clear again he starts back up. |
