So I have been talking to a couple for a while now, this is probably the 3 time we have engaged in conversation over a 3 year period as I generally get bored/pissed off and leave for a bit. Never actually met them. They always seem to go quiet when I ask for contact no or what's app just before we meet we are as close as possible to a meet imo but they are a few miles away so I don't want to drive or ride over there or book somewhere for then to be a no show. I then said this is what makes me nervous about them and then he went into a rant saying don't bother then, am I being unfair ? |

If it hasn't happened yet, regardless of whether they're genuine or just stringing you along, it's probably not going to. If they were keen they'd have made it happen by now. Might be best just to move on. |

Maybe they think you're stringing them along by constantly setting up accounts then leaving. If people im talking to keep doing that, honestly I end up just chatting to pass the time of day (if I even bother acknowledging them) because I assume they won't ever meet |

You're a single guy so you're going to be in the wrong whatever.
That said. If people want to meet they make it happen. Having a rant for being open about a concern doesn't seem like the best way to start a fun experience. |

the meets were not imminent when I left given them up by then and just chatted like you said but I was pretty certain it was going to happen this time

I do agree in part with this,
I used to speak to someone who always said he wanted to meet, but has left several times.
I don't even bother if he contacts me anymore to be honest.
So maybe that's part of it. |
