I am very honest and very upfront about things.



why they can't grow some balls and just be honest with me.



I sense some attitude in your 'very upfront-ness'.

Maybe the dude just couldn't be bothered? You may have looked at it like he crawled away like he had no balls, but realistically, maybe he just rolled his eyes and said "Ugghh I'm Outta here. I don't want this to turn into a big arguement over nothing so I'll let HER figure it out. I'm too busy for this" and wanted to avoid a big ol' confrontation that would probably end up as you insulting him anyway by saying he had no balls for breaking off another date? (Or whatever you 2 were)

He's gone. Dwelling on weather or not he was right or you were right changes nothing. His decision was made.

Move on.

Okay fellas, I need to know what causes a man to quit talking to you after weeks of communication

OP how can it be weeks when you haven't been here quite a month yet..


It has happened in the past and I want to know what is up with it, or at least get some idea of why they have had a change of heart.

Well OP. I have not clue why this guy or others have walked away.. This is only opinion..
But Truthfully your in your eye personality is a bit of a turn off for me. I can only give you the reasons why I would cease all communications.
1. Something he revealed is a total deal breaker for me.
2. He has such an agressive personality I don't want to deal with it.
I think these are the top 2. But basically I don't want to deal with the hassles or fall out from that person..I don't want to deal with the Drama I feel will ensue.

Good luck OP

Something else caught his eye or it could possibly be that he was falling for you and got scared....... Either way now you know to move on...Dont boost his ego by trying desperatly to get him to talk to you!

I *think* that in most cases like this, he's either realized that there's something about you that he's not so fond of after all, or that he's found someone else who piques his interest more. So he's ready to move on, but lacks the courage to just be honest about his feelings.

The single most difficult part of dating someone new is trying to understand the why's of their behavior or behavioral changes. I agree that it's sad that these people just can't save you (us) some of the worrying and ruminating by just being honest. Perhaps they really don't know what they're putting us through when they suddenly stop communicating - or perhaps they don't care, since they have moved on. But it is certainly a cruel way to end things, IMO.

I stopped talking with one of my friends (who was a girl), because I liked her too much and couldnt stand seeing her whore it up with other guys.

Are you whoring it up with other guys?

^^^^^^God help this guy if he ever has a dilemna. Is the point of coming on forums just to make yourself feel superior by belittling other peoples problems?


^^^^^^^^^^Iam not sure Pamperpooch000.....obviously someone who claims to be over 7 feet tall in their profile with a woman standing behind him, who must be then 9 foot tall....must have their head in the clouds and are closer to god than we think.

OP....believe me..it's very hard to know what goes through anyone's mind, when they decide not to call you back or refuse to talk anymore...

It's his loss....and your gain.

Happy

Now I realize why I don't post on the forums, but thanks for all the advice and no dude i'm not out whoring around good lord. And as for the weeks of communication, I know this time I have not been on here that long, but I have been on here once before but that is not what I was referring to. Don't jump to the conclusion that I was speaking of a issue that stems from POF. All I simply wanted was some insight to it and I should have worded it a little better but hey, we all make our mistakes and yeah, it's not my loss at all and I have moved on....so thanks for the input that made sense and for those that didn't, you have way too much time on your hands and are reading way too far into these forums. But thanks none-the-less. Jeep Wave

Many possible reasons. Maybe he simply lost interest in you. Maybe he met a woman that he likes better. Maybe he wasn't serious about dating. Maybe he is afraid of getting into a relationship because of past experiences. Maybe he prefers to remain single. Keep in mind, I'm not agreeing with it. I would rather have a person tell me they are no longer interested in me instead of ignoring me.

Yeah, I agree, it happens both ways... I can't stand it when people all of a sudden just stop talking to me ... I never know if I said something that offended her, or she feels uncomfortable talking to me, ... the list goes on and on, and never any idea why.

Unfortunately I don't really have an answer for you, other than maybe he's scared to tell you the truth.

"BUT if she finds him too 'nice' or overly attentive during those dates, she will probably be turned off him and just avoid contact with him because she doesn't have the guts to tell him, and doesn't want to continue seing him, not so much because she is thinking her feelings through, but because she see's him as..."

^^^you just answered your own question. If you (for whatever reason) don't like the guy, you quit talking to him. Same thing with guys.

I am just wondering why if this person meets someone and or has a change of heart why they can't grow some balls and just be honest with me.

Doesn't have to do with growing some balls, more of being smart. Put your foot in our shoes and understand all the drama we have to put up with, when we tell the truth why.
What's the ol' saying? **Nothing worse than a woman scorned (or something like that)
Women do the same and I have more sense to know that, its a part of life...move on.

If you ask me, it might be the fact that you already have a child(ren). Most men, me included are not looking to fix someone else's problem, and all that other baby mama drama involved with someone else's child. Now, don't get me wrong... I love children, and totally want some of my own!! But someone else's child? Yeah... that's just kinda awkward, when, on the 4th date someone's 8 year old is wanting to call you "dad"...

If he is not a passive/aggressive type person, seems that maybe the clue phone should be ringing...the ring tone? Dun...dun.....dun....dun
