He disappeared what should i do

Wanted to go out other nights too, but I was already busy. He asked me to go to a Celtics game, he was going to pick me up at my house and never showed up.

It is not just the young guys. Do they ever grow-up?! We broke up off and on, months here and there. He pushed me away, then I him, etc.

I think ghosting is really immature. They need to grow up and day exactly what they want. He was pursuing me big time then it stopped and I was pursuing him as well. We had been talking since early this year, then met up to finally see each other, then had an official date as he called it and he said he wanted us to continue to date so that we could know each other before we did anything else.

We are both very attracted to each other we kissed and it could have gone further but we wanted to do things … Read more ». Hi, Adam! I really appreciate your advice.

This has unfortunately become the norm nowadays.

My current love is fearful of love for many reasons and is emotionally unavailable although a work in progress. Think of him as an abused pitbull or feral cat that just wants to be loved. We have been on and off, currently on for almost two years. I met R. He was hilarious, appeared stable, and pursued me. While we dated, I confided in him that I always had my heart ripped out by previous men I was with, and I wanted something solid and lasting.

Fast forward…we were dating and sex came into the picture. I thought the chemistry was good. I felt confident that he was the … Read more ». I felt confident that he was the one. This guy or coward i should say is a total jerk! I would of been pissed too you had a right to be. What about when you might have said something to scare them away? I met a guy on tinder, he told me outright that he really liked me — would always tell me every day and complement me.

We got along really well, consistantly messaged me and and acted like he liked me too…always kept his weekends free for me. Also need to add, that I ended it because I felt like he was going to fade me out. I started talking to this guy on Ok Cupid.

I had liked him 3 months prior but he had disabled his account, but now he was back on. So I messaged him and he replied. We talked about music and shared our similar interests. He even said we should make playlists for each other for when we met. Super funny, super charming, the whole nine yards.

We work in the same industry, but in separate jobs. We both found each other very attractive, and there was a spark. So much interest, effortlessly written poetry back and forth. We were excited … Read more ». I just had this happen. I came home to everything gone and blocked on everything. Then I started seeing this guy couple weeks ago, said he wanted something serious not temporary.

I started falling. We spend every weekend together. He texted me all day every day. I have this they are family friends, I had acrush on Him but renctly he hit on and I played hard to get so he backed off but I really like him what should I do.

I recently met a guy at a pub, and he seemed to show interest in me. Like, really keen. He asked me to go on a date with him. Then later on he asked one of my friends for my number and we had a date the next day.

He was showing so much interest. And just complimenting me, talking about future dates, holding my hand, kissing me. He would stop me in the street and kiss me. Kate, this sounds so like my guy his names not Jamie is it? A guy ghosted on me also which was severely immature he allowed to me ordered a bunch of things off the menu constantly staring at me and complimenting me and I decided to asked him while we was on the date how did he feel about it he smiled and claimed he was having a wonderful time and that I was so beautiful to him and even mentioned after we eat could we go to the movies but I declined the movie because I still wanted to feel him out and felt that we could do a movie for the … Read more ».

Angry now, I began to wonder why he would do such a thing to a person he claimed to love? What did he think I was going to do, break down, cry, and beg him to stay?

I spoke with him recently and he gave me some lame-ass explanation as to why he left me. Did I need it now? No, because after just a week of no contact from him, I realized it was over. If he could go that long without hearing the sound of my voice, then he was telling me he no longer wanted to be with me.

But like all strong women, I moved on. Just because he was afraid to face me, I was not afraid of living my life. To help you to move on, I compiled a list of coping tips that helped me get through this tough time in my life. When a man decides to end a relationship, most of the time he has been contemplating it for a while. He no longer wants to continue a relationship with you and has been looking for a graceful exit.

Just think about it. He may have tried to pick petty arguments with you or he may have gone longer than usual calling you back or conversations became shorter.

When my ex stopped calling throughout the day or quickly got off the phone with me, I should have seen the writing on the wall then. I chose to be quiet as to not rock the boat.

When my ex told me he had to get his life together and that he was sorry for leaving me: it became all too real at that point I had been DUMPED. I cried for two days afterward. I think I would have been better off if I had never spoken to him again because those same feelings of abandonment came back full force. No matter what, you have to move on. Besides, who says the story he gives is actually the truth?

He may tell you he had to get his life together, but he may fail to tell you he was doing it with another woman. Just be happy he disappeared from your life sooner rather than later. No matter what, if a person wants you in their life, they will do whatever they need to do to keep you there.

You deserve someone who wants you. This is not a fairy tale or some soap opera. No one has that much going on in their life. A relationship takes two to make it. Stop thinking about the time you gained a few pounds or how you refused to try that position he tried to pressure you into. This is real life. You deserve someone who wants to be with you, enjoys your company and fights for the chance to be in your life.

Disappearing from your life only makes room for that man who is actually dying to be there. This man will love you and care for you. If you were still with your ex, how would you ever meet this man? All that will be accomplished is that old wounds will open wide enough for the salt to be poured on them. Yes, cry if you need to. If it hurts, go ahead and cry your little heart out. I tried to be tough, but just the slightest thing made me cry. Everything seemed great. He even woke up and made me coffee in the morning before waking me.

I left around 10am. Later that evening though he was a bit different. He said he was tired and hung over. Then the next few days his texts were shorter. Not as well thought out. No silly sexual references. I told him I was unusually comfortable with him and he said I should be. When we would speak on the phone it was fine but again, the texts were different. We met for coffee that Tue and I felt in my gut that something was different.

He talked and complained about work. There was no making out in the car like we did other times we met at lunch. We spoke later that evening and again, he seemed fine and we made a date for the following Saturday.

I texted him to tell him I was taking my daughter to the Dr and not to call. All of his texts were short. Nothing flirty. No Emojis. He was different and I knew something was up. He just said he was eating dinner and then asked if I was ok. It was odd. When I got home I called and got his VM. I texted that I sensed something was up. He called me right back and his voice was very shaky. He just said he had a bad day at work and needed to hang with his son.

But I knew there was more to it. I said ok. Later that night he texted and sounded very irritated and reiterated that he had a bad day and just needed time with his son. I felt scolded. I just knew there was more to it. None of what he said made sense. I responded and reminded him that he was just as guilty of moving fast as I was and I must have done something wrong for him to be saying this.

I also told him I agreed it was moving fast but I was following his lead. He never replied. I never heard from him again! This was a month ago. I was devastated! I normally take my time in getting to know someone but we clicked immediately and I felt with every fiber of my being that this was special.

Now I am dumbfounded! I saw his dating profile on Bumble last Sun. I was inconsolable because if dating me was too consuming with work, why would he be looking for something new?

There were no red flags at all. Those texts that Wed and Thu was not the same person I was texting with before Sunday. He was interested in having sex with you but not so much interested in you. Do not contact him anymore. Date many people but do not sleep with them. Interested men with continue to show interest. Those who are not will fade and disappear. While dating but not sleeping with these men. Get to know them and vice versa.

At the same time make the most of enjoying single life. Do all the things that make you happy. Sometimes women delude themselves about a situation because it is what they want. This will cause heartache and pain. Relationships are two way with both putting in the effort.

Remember this. I have a bf and we ere together like 2 years more we are LDR. He always vanishing, sometimes untill 3 days or more.

But when he text me or he call me, he act like everything is fine after he vanished. He said he just dont like to texting, dont like to stay on phone for a whole day. And also not possible to call bcs his country UAE is block all the apps to make a call. He said he love me, but he seems like dont. Bcs if he love me he will make me important, and keep in touch with me no matter how busy he is, no matter how much he travels and no matter how much he has going on in his life.

And 2 next months we going to have a vacation. What should i do? Then suddenly he went cold. He changed his phone number and ghosted me in mid conversation about coming to my birthday. After seventeen days I was stressed at his sudden ghosting, I missed him and the situation was nagging me, haunting me, and so I decided to go to his home fifty minutes drive away and confront him.

I told him i knew he was never going to contact me again. I remained calm and neutral and respectful as I wanted to retain my dignity. He replied he was just busy and sure he was, he was full of lame excuses and denials and I believe some lies as well.

He never once showed me any of his past warmth such as reaching to touch me etc, while I was there. I was so glad I went to confront him and get closure, even though he could not come clean and just end it properly.

I was over him. A great burden was lifted from me and I felt free again. We are both runners. So we spent that weekend training, and we had lunch and laughs afterwards. Not until the holidays when I sent a greeting for the holidays.

He responded a day after thanking me for the simple gift I gave him. I did not respond to his last. Then yesterday, I shoot him a message on facebook asking for a certain schedule of an event. Until today he has not responded, though I see him always online on Facebook. He has a habit of responding late or worst not responding at all to my messages and he has his reasons. Could it be a red flag? Or am i just overthinking and overreacting? Been there recently and if i put my logical head on I realise hes got lots of Issues.

Im very upset but Im trying really hard to work on myself and confidence and self esteem I hadnt relised how men and women think so differently and Im My guy has been incognito for a little over two weeks now. I am in the middle of getting ready for my brothers wedding this weekend and there has been a lot of stress that i was chatting to him about. Before then, we were fine i think. Who knows anymore. This is what i believe, and the article was spot on: the right man will not leave you.

I have felt the beginnings of self doubt and sadness; and even anger. I truly value my happiness and value as an individual. So a shoddy treatment of me from someone who claims to love me is not on. I have been dating someone for one month maybe 6 dates. Last week 3 days in a row. During the last days I have kept the conversations a little bit cold since he only texts me to say good night and then says I am going to sleep this only during this week.

Then he asked to do something during the weekend. I kept it cold again and said I have plans for Saturday. Then he asked about Sunday. I said just: I would love to…: Then he dissapeared on Sunday. Is this because of me being a little bit cold but I have reasons because I consider it disrespect when smn says I am going to sleep now or what? If smn looses interest why asks to do smth on weekend. Should I move on or write to him? I find disrespectful to ask smn and to dissapear.

Im committed to moving on but think about him everyday. I miss him like mad but i can no longer give him the best of me when he dips out all the time. He has done this the whole 4 years together. He has run so many times and always comes home. This time he is never going to return.

Its been 3 months and he is a no-show. I am dealing with rejection, emotional abuse and co-dependancy. I am getting therapy now and i want the day to come when he doesnt consume my thoughts. I met this guy at his job. We were talking everyday, he met my kids and we finally made it official. He asked could he move in, I was still skeptical but I said ok. Unfortunately I had unprotected sex with him and even after that we were still cool.

He told me it was a slight chance I could be pregnant and yeah I got mad but it was as much as my fault as his. Then after that conversation he just vanished. Which sucks if I am because he just left. I figured he probably does this all the time and I just fell for the scam. I am so sorry;. Just slow down. We get too caught up in how people are supposed to act and our expectations continually suffer because of it.

What is a certainty is that you can always keep being plugged into your own life, at all times. The list is exhausting. Real relationships take time, lots of it. Real love takes time. Genuine respect, friendship, emotional connection is important when you first meet someone you might like.

Not infatuation, which is what fools us most the time, and infatuation plays a BIG part when you first meet someone. Thing is, everyone talking on this forum about being ghosted has probably done it themselves to others whether you realise it or not!!! Keep pursuing YOUR passions, your dreams, honour what you want in your life and take pleasure in meeting those people who cross your path for however long they choose to, but also take pleasure in who YOU decide to hang out with.

Things are not fixed. Humans are complicated. Take back control and see the logic. Thank you for this! It is exactly what I needed to read. You have no idea how much better what you said has made me feel. If two people consent to be together physically, then expectations should be involved. I wonder if you have found the love of your life using this method?

Dating should be for the intent to marry and settle down. Casual dating or sex and just enjoying the other person for a moment with no intention of ever settling down is a waste of time. It is true that we have been conditioned into a non-reality world of romance, but emotions are there for a reason. We should not keep our emotions completely in the background, but there should be a balance of logic and emotions. We had a lot going on: First of all, we were LDR the worst!

Oh, Lordy. He began to slither away, but we would always get back together. We never had words, I asked him, so, this is it? Especially him with 3 kids home. Guys like this are easy to get over.

Now, if he got sick, of course I would be by his side, we promised we would never leave each other, and we had so many plans as a new family. So, I am making the effort to work on myself, mentally I feel great. I am exercising more and getting fresh air, therefore am losing weight and ready to take on the world again. Of course, and I am sure I will. But the key here, is to remain strong and not contact him.

Perhaps will just let him know that I am open to dating should he ask and thank him for the call. Yes, we do, but we want things like they were in the first 2 months or so when we are on our best behavior. People have lives and the world does not evolve around him and that penis. I started dating a man in August When we met it was like it was meant to be.

We hit it off like I have never with anyone before. It was a fairy tale. We ended up falling in love and spending plenty of time together. He professed his love to me daily. Always told me how much he loved me. The only thing that bothered me was that he never really put effort into showing me that he loved me. No birthday card, no Xmas presents, no valentines card. This started weighing on me after a while. I would bring it up in conversation and he would tell me that he loved me and promise it would be better.

I still loved him though. What we shared in time spent was worth more to me than materialistic things. Well one daybi decided I was going to take my things and leave because I was unsure anymore about how he felt. I wanted to know if I was worth it to him so I decided to give him a few days to figure out What he wanted.

Well all of a sudden he just nonlonger reaponda to text a or phone calls and ignores me for days until I show up at his house. So then 4 more days go by. Then he texts back and tells me his grandmother had passed and he would be with his family for the next few days. This left me so confused because at a point like this I would want my other half present. But not him, nope he wanted to be left alone. So a week later no response no phone calls so I show up at his house again asking for answers.

He told me that he still loved me he just had a lot on his mind. Needlesa to say, I stayed the night. I never fell back asleep because of all of the emotion running through me. Neither did he. I opened my eyes to him staring at me at one point. He grabbed my face and told me he was so sorry for. We held each other rubbed each other and eventually hooked up. The following morning we had gotten up and he pulled my hand to come lay with him on the couch.

We binge watched one of our shows that we always had. He held my hand all day and called me babe like normal. At one point I was going to go home and shower and he told me to shower at his place and just put his sweats on. I spent the night again. We cuddled all night and hooked up again the next morning.

I left for work like normal and he told me he loved me Kissed me said have a good day babe text me later. Things were back to normal it felt. Until that night. I got one half ass text. The following day another half ass text them bam- back to ignoring me all over.

So days later he finally agreed to talking. He said he disnt know What he wanted but he needed to find himself again.

And that was basically it. Not even 48 hours later I passed him and he had a girl on the back of his bike. I text him and no response. Days later and still no response. I know I sound crazy for even bothering to put effort into trying to figure this out, but I love him.

My 7 year old daughter was highly involved as well. I feel as if I got no real explanation as if it were just the easy way out and he threw us out like trash after claiming how much I meant for the last 8 months.

How much he loved us and how much of an amazing person I was. Always wanting to be with me. I spent 5 of 7 days at his house a week for 5 months. It was like he just flipped a switch. At all.

We never fought over anything. We had little disagreements but they never left us angry. We never had a real argument. We always got along. I gave this relationship everything I had. I am guilty of ghosting a borderline personality disorder women. I left her hanging, blocked her on all social media accounts. I deactivated my own Facebook account for a while.

She is not a bad person but sadly she is not normal due to her borderline personality disorder. I educated my self enough to let go. That does not make you a bad guy. After a few months of dating I introduced him to all my family and he came to my cousins wedding. After 6 months we booked up to go to Greece together for our first romantic holiday, 7 months into the relationship and a week before our holiday he rang me up and broke up with me.

Because of this I had to struggle to find a friend to do a name change with and take his place. Once I came back off holiday it was a month after the break up, I went to his to get closure because I wanted to know why he did it. I stayed over a couple of nights and for another four months we remained in touch and close emotionally and sexually until he just decided to not contact me at all which was strange considering he told me he still had feelings for me.

I asked him if we could talk as I still had feelings for him but instead he just opened my messages and ignored me then blocked me off all social media.

I am glad now I realise he was just leading me on to suit his own selfish needs. However he has left room for someone who will value and love me like we all deserve to be, moreover we all deserve an explanation when people do not reciprocate those feelings that have been invested from the other party, as it takes a bigger more responsible people to do that and some people just do not have that capability.

Therefore time-wasters do not deserve our time! I had realised she was playing with my emotions so instead of reacting to her I chose to drop her like a hot potatoe to protect my own heart and feelings. So am I the bad guy? After a few months of dating I introduced him to my family and he came to my cousin so wedding.

After 6 months we booked up to go to Greece together for our first romantic holiday. Once I came back off holiday and sour a month after the break up to talk. We spoke and it was like nothing had changed, I stayed over a couple of nights and for another four months we remained in touch still until he just decided to not contact me at all. I asked him if we could talk as I still had feelings for him but instead he just ignored me and blocked me off all social media.

Are you ladies really this dense? You created this world. Your wanted feminism. You got it. No man worth anything is going to commit to you. Then u reach your mid 30s and you think some White Knight wants to come along and marry you?

Are you out of your mind? How delusional can u be? This is all because you were sold the Feminism bag of goods. You feel entitlement.

Everything is about the woman. Girls go on instragam and Facebook and all they do is post pics of themselves. Look at me! Love me! Cause you want attention. You want Men to bow down to you.

The men there are and on Dating sites which are all men too by the way - only have 1 objective: sex with women. Thats it. Thats what Women have reduced themselves to. Never once does a Woman ask — what do I bring to the table? What can I do for HIM? Its all about me, me, me, and oh by the way…me again. Give me more MEN. While us men — just bang away. You ladies are so freakin delusional — its unreal. Such a crybaby. That helps… nothing….

I was distant, i am always scared of getting hurt. I was not texting that much, scared of disturbing him.. That friday, he texted me, it w. This is really great advice — for dealing with the facts and the damage. We are made to relate, react, love, hate, reciprocate.

They should — they must — come forward and deal with the situation, as they have equal part in having created it. It is not cool, not cool for most of us, but beacuse we seem to tolerate, now it has become common practice for men to leave without any accountability on his part.

Lets please be real. Now, this advice is really good in the case that the said party does not respond, despite our effort to reach them only once. In that case, we have done our part -for ourselves-, and this person was a coward — not a man we could have counted on with our lives. Matters of heart are no joke!. One or multiple heartbreaks, ongoing dysfunctional relationships.. I like what you wrote there. By allowing an easy exit to such people, we are forcing ourselves to tolerate bullshit, when we completely deserve an explanation.

Why should one person bear the brunt of a break up when both were party to it? Not fair. I am a hypnotherapist and study about relationships and advise others. I have not read anything until now that describes what you wrote, in such a simple, easy-to-understand format. People just vanish… both men and women. Avoidance is painful. Anyone, either male or female, who has been ignored or avoided, understands that this hurts.

I say the truth always sets you free. There are tactful and diplomatic ways to step back from any relationship, while being honest, direct and respectful. How would you want someone to reject you tactfully? Be kind always. They will not comply with the rules of ethics and decency. This is why we need to be as clear minded and clear vision as possible and make an effort to not get entangled in hopeless love affairs.

You know putting the cart in front of the horse. Sometimes we just invite in the Trojan Horse. I have this guy who has pulled away from me for a while now… We truely enjoy being together out or in bed but he rarely contacts me while we would just talk 2 or 3 hours a day before that.

He said ok sure but no change I asked him if he wanted to get out of the relation and he just said no! Sorry, sounds like he is using you for emotional support, intellectual support and sex. Does he ask you what you want or need in any life area? Is he curious about you? Does he give you what YOU need? Im guessing no but would love to hear otherwise.

And if indeed no, please look for the nearest trash can and dump him. We meet from a reputed matrimonial site and started relationship in Dec when we met for 2 day vacation. We were texting and talking on phone a month before we met personally.

We were in relationship for months and I started seeing decline in interest after months. The meetings starts getting canceled and then I was out for business trip for 2 consecutive months and then went to my home country.

But he was making plans to go for a trip the other weekend But never mentioned that we are gonna celebrate my birthday. I got heart broken and I asked him that I want to talk and then he just stopped texting me back and opened his profile on the online dating site where we met first. He texted me after 2 days of my birthday just a wish and I just said thanks. After a week I felt that may be I should initiate a contact and wont mention about our differences.

I called and texted and he never responded. I also started moving but after a month I really missed him so I though I will give one more try and I emailed him just a simple saying sorry and that I love him.

No response after a month he texted me saying he needs help with some of his school work. He again started communicating showing interest but never talked about what happened. But again after the week I was on a bussiness trip out of country. Texts again started to get less and less.

I would see him on facebook but not text me back and I got angry and blocked him. But then again during halloween I just wished him just like to other friends and he immediately started responding.

We started communicating once again. Then he asked me to join him for thanksgiving dinner with his family. It was great time his dad liked me :. He also treated me as if I am his girlfriend and was perfectly treating me. Until I came back to my city. The texts started slowly getting less. Now the last time was when it was 31 dec and I wished him for new year and he responded.

After that I also stoped texting and after 20 days I texted asking how he is doing. I texted times in week and telling what was going on with me. I could see he has read messages but didnt bothered to respond. I just did a final text saying that I am relieved he is ok as i can see he read texts. It has been 10 days I havent heard from him. I sent him birthday gift which he should have received when I was texting him but ne never bothered to say thanks.

But I will just think that may be we were not compatible all along.
