It very much depends on the person and the type of let down. I guess if you are asking then you are pretty close to enough times x

It depends....if you've met before then give the benefit of the doubt.

If you were building up to something and they ghost you, hear them out and if its believable then one chance.

Not believable then fuck them right off.

Totally depends on the person, normally if it's a genuine reason I'll give them a second chance, straight up ghosting or lame excuse then buh bye

As others have said it depends on the circumstances, communication before meeting etc.

My big pet hate is having to do all the chasing, initiating all the conversations.

If all was well pre meet id hear them out as unforseen things can pop up. Twice id be suspect though

Ladies seemingly have all the choice on hear, its sad to think if a guy is lucky enough to catch someone's eye that fun and games start.

Try not being so available for him maybe.

I'd be at the point of no more with that, yes with kids it can be tricky and things can go tits up last minute, but if it's getting to a point where it's his way or no way then I'd be looking at moving on

I'd give him the benefit of the doubt for the babysitting but how could he forget? Raining? Get a bloody brolly! Can I ask who messages who first? My friend once told me the best bit of advice. If he doesn't message he's not that bothered. Stung like hell but she was totally right x

You put it better than me, why would you want to meet someone who treats you as a convenience

The two dits that are telling for me are that he 'forgot' and you are finding it 'lame'.

It sounds like the spark is gone.

Funny thing when you're into someone though you turn a blind eye. It's not until you meet someone that treats you the way you deserve you realise how much of an ass the person before was! If he is making you feel shit about yourself then you deserve better and walk away xx

Those excuses are lame and sounds like he's married and cheating. Time to say bye and find someone more on your wave length.

Ita a great bit of advice, also if they never ask how you are too and always talk about them. Run a damn mile and don't stop.

There's a lot more to the back story too but sometimes he contradicts himself with what he is saying. I definitely feel there's more to his story thrn what he is telling.

That's the thing he says he is but im not sure! Respect and trust is a big thing for me even tho we are just meeting for fun.

He's too laid back and chilled for my liking

Always go with your gut even if you don't want to listen to it. If things don't add up it's generally because something isn't right. Not meaning to sound like a total pessimist!!! I could be totally wrong but me thinks you kinda know already lovely. I've been there and it's shit. Big hugs xx

to laid back and chilled for your liking ? How do u like them?

Have you developed feelings for him ? As for something casual , ur questioning it , if it gets to point your questioning it , then it time for him to go , as for the excuses what does your gut tell you when he telling you them ,

If he's not as into you as you are into him, are you sure you are his only option, he may have lots of women options he is considering. The other choice is call him on it and be prepared to accept whatever consequence that happens

He's got a long term partner and he's lying to you both.

I know that sounds harsh but what other explanation is there?

People can let you down genuinely on occasion. If it's happening on a regular basis, I'd see that as a red flag and move on

Depends

If it’s a first meet then if they don’t turn up then they had they chance and will not get a nother

If meet before then I let the odd let down slip though as I know real life things can crop up

But two in a row and it’s you not get a nother chance or if it’s starting to become frequent ie turn up one week let down the next then turn up the next and the next again then let down again

I think that you are asking this question, you really know for yourself that something isn't right.

Whatever is going in with him, you deserve better than that.

Hmmm you know it depends what they are going through.. And believe me there is a lot that nobody knows about me, so i imagine others are the same..

Life does get in the way, though it does sound like life is getting in the way too often.

Sounds like you already made the decision, good for you. If he thinks he can get away with crappy behaviour then it won't change

Good luck lovely. Be strong you're worth more than that

Depends. A no show is a definite block. A call 5 mins before is a maybe. A call 2 hours before a probable second chance. It's just good manners!
