OK, nevermind.
Not a lot going on in K-Town, apparently.

Has anyone thought about World Grotto?
It's a non-smoking club, but it's really no big deal (I'm a smoker).
It's a really great place.
Great music, international, it kinda has an up-scale feel to it - but it's not snooty at all.
Plus, admission gets you into Preservation Pub, which a seriously pro-smoking bar!

Why do guys always do this to me? Does anyone else have this problem?...

It's not just men. Unfortunately, women do this as well (for different reasons, of course).

Now, I haven't read this entire string, so forgive me if I'm reiterating. But...
Generally speaking: if a guy dumps you like that, either he's gotten what he wanted and didn't care for the rest, or he does care for the rest but didn't get what he wanted.
This is usually sex. 'The rest', for better or for worse, could be mood-swings, friends, family, maturity, immaturity, social bracket, you name it.
When a woman dumps a guy like this (it's been my experience and observation) that something has turned her completely off.
Mannerisms, hygene, income, 'the guys', whatever.

The thing is, all of this could be avoided if two thing would happen.

First of all...
People need be up-front and honest from the begining all the way to the end.
I'm confident it's those little white lies that are screwing us up.
Ladies, if a guy asks you out to a particular venue that's not quite your cup o' tea... say so (then suggest something a little more agreeable to you both)! Don't just sit there resenting it the whole time. That's no good for anybody!
Guys, if she want's to go watch some goofy chick-flick, don't do the ol' "Sure, Baby, whatever you want" routine. Let her know how you feel about that kinda thing.
Then go watch the damn movie! ^_^
accomodation - communication = ruination.

Secondly,
Don't be so eager/desperate to jump into things. We all want to love and to be loved, but we've got to take it slow. I mean, which would you rather have? A slow broiled New York Strip or a microwave burrito? Y'know? Which one is gonna stick to your ribs, and which one is gonna be gone before 'Lost' is over and you miss the last half show?
Now you're really 'lost' and posting on a free online dating service. (like me ^_^)
DO NOT THROW THE 'L' WORD AROUND!
There's a difference between love and infatuation.
I'm not sure if one is just a degree of the other or what.

Maybe somebody else has some more clues

Oh yeah, guys AND gals, don't give it up so easily. You're worth the wait! =^_~=

Good luck to you all,
~K~
