 so I knew he was a bit of a dick and after a lot of frustrating experiences including being ghosted right before planned hookups I decided to move on and forget about him.
Fast forward to yesterday, when he popped back up and asked to meet up again. I told him that, while I still fancied him, the ghosting issue was too much for me to deal with. He then admitted that he'd had a girlfriend at the time we slept together and that was part of the reason why he was always so elusive. I feel really crestfallen and disappointed. I feel so shit about the fact someone used me to cheat and I didn't even have a say in the matter. I just don't really know what to make of it all...
The worst part is he's now ghosting me again so I can't even find out what the situation was with his girlfriend and why he cheated. | |||

"I slept with someone around 2 years ago after speaking for a bit. I really fancied him, the sex was great and he wanted to continue a fwb style relationship but he would ghost me for days at a time and I would get really annoyed - I'd set clear boundaries from the start on how I feel about replying to messages etc and obviously he only respected those until we actually had sex and he'd got what he wanted so I knew he was a bit of a dick and after a lot of frustrating experiences including being ghosted right before planned hookups I decided to move on and forget about him.

I’m one of those people who need an explanation. Unfortunately, it looks like the only explanation you’re going to get is that he’s a dick. I wouldn’t give him the time of day. What will an explanation tell you that you don’t already know? He probably still has a girlfriend, he will still ghost you in the future. Block him and find someone who’ll put you on a pedestal and give you the type of relationship that you’re looking for on here. A respectful one x Best of luck, if you’re anything like me (and highly suspect you are), you’ll agree with me but still continue to chase the elusive answer. | |||

I never would have assumed he'd had a girlfriend because - without going into too much detail - he was about to change his entire lifestyle to one that would make it very difficult to have a partner. And he is definitely ghosting me. Once I realised I blocked him on everything and kicked myself for even considering going back there in the slightest  | |||

"I think you need to block him on everything so he can’t keep waltzing into your life and letting off little bombs of uncertainty and upset. He doesn’t bring you happiness. So what does he bring to the table? His dick. And there’s plenty more of that out there." Where?! Where is it? How do I find it??  | |||

"I think you need to reevaluate those boundaries you say you set What do you mean? " Take no notice. He treated you (and his gf) appallingly. Whether you "allowed" him to, as the poster implies, is by the by. It's hard when feelings come to the fore and hindsight & other people's views are all very good, but at the time you went with your heart. As most of us do at some point. You've blocked him now, thankfully, as he sounds a rather selfish chap. Accept thathat he was just one of life's wrong 'uns & free yourself up for people that will value you. Please don't be so hard on yourself x | |||

You're too good for him. I bet if you showed complete zero interest as in if you hadn't replied to him yesterday, he'd be plaguing you now.

I have been doing this more recently, but I can't help feeling like I'm missing out by being so closed-hearted. Guys will give me excuses as to why they're being distant and make me feel like I'm being unreasonable for not wanting to be ghosted, and then act all shocked when I decide to move on. Why am I only attracting these sorts of guys?? Am I the problem?! So frustrating  | |||

"Hi OP, this excuse of a Man has mistreated you from day 1 IMO. He was cheating & you had no idea that he was...that's quite low of him. As regards the "ghosting" in between meets that's completely ill mannered of him. My advice to you OP is to block him on every single app & try & move on. It's clear from your post that you have feelings for him, but men like him do not deserve your time or attention. So you hadn't heard from him in 2yrs & out of the blue he contacts you again & then "ghosts" you
You're too good for him. I bet if you showed complete zero interest as in if you hadn't replied to him yesterday, he'd be plaguing you now.

"We did speak towards the end of last year but it was the same story... Whispering sweet nothings over text being the perfect gent and then when it came to the day before the meet - radio silence (until yesterday). | |||

It wasn't a one off at a vulnerable moment, it was an ongoing pattern. I get that closure would be nice, but all you're going to get from him is more lies. Honestly, no cock is worth putting yourself through that, not even a schlong of solid 24kt gold. Hold yourself in higher value, you deserve better. | |||

You think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die?
