Ok let me make sure I get this straight...

You went on three dates, after date number three he decides he doesn't want to date you anymore. There was never any exclusive talk which honestly after a week why would there be.... then you don't hear from him for like a week or two and has the kahonas to get bent out of shape because you "met" someone else on this dating site.

Ok here is the thing... this is a dating site. Until there is some mutual agreement that you will be exclusive with someone you have the right to date whomever you wish. And excuse me but did he not express that he didn't wish to date you anymore? Misunderstanding my tush ok? Once that was expressed you totally had the right to meet someone else if you chose to do so.

The guy is a moron ok? If anything you should be saying to yourself... Glad I dodged that bullet.

Ok, it never ceases to amaze me how egotistical some people can be. Ya know, if you go out with someone and you are positive and flattering to them they feel it's too easy and they back off thinking you really like them (and you do) and that therefore you will be ok with being jerked around. Yah right.

Next time someone does that pretend to burst out crying for about 2.4 seconds, then sport a huge grin and say - Ok I'm over you. Gotta go now. Have a good life hon. Just kidding but it would be comical.

See how shocked they are. Never fails. At that point though, they have blown it and you don't respect them anymore and the attraction is dead. That's been my experience.

You talk to WHOEVER you want, WHEN you want- esp when you were not exclusive in the first place with someone.

It only becomes a game when you're not upfront with people to what you are looking for or if you mislead someone in thinking you're only committed to them.

Mr. passive-aggressive needs to get over himself and put his ego in check...You owe him nothing... He sounds like a spoiled kid having sour grapes because you moved on instead of grieving over him..... puleasee

Kudos to you for being a smart gal and shedding the dead weight pronto

There have been quite a few that I have met from here that were actively looking to find that special person to connect with and hopefully have a single good relationship............

The best way to make this happen will be to meet and greet more than just one person, and test the waters for the temperature of just what this site may or may not offer. Nothing right or wrong about it, just as long as you are not meeting multiples in order to play with them and make them feel like the only one when that is just not the case.

Being open and honest, communicating what you are doing and why, is the best way to handle any date, and possible relationship, and hopefully using this site like one large meeting place to find the few that will turn into the one when right.....

Just my opinion.......

Immediately go out again. Get back on the pony and ride, girl. You own him nothing, it's not like you were even going out for a week.

Good thing you found out, by him showing you he was a loser after three dates.

If they're paying your rent, buying your groceries then they should have some dictate to your life.
