Well, I didn't post here about 3 prospects I have... or had. Didn't want to jinx them.
One nice guy, right in my town. About my age. Let's call him R. 4 kids, ages 18-30. None of them live with him. Separated from his wife 8 years ago, divorced 5 years ago. Seemed to have his shit together. We met for lunch and it went great. Very interesting, smart, funny, nice looking. 2nd date, he came here, had lovely chats, watched a DVD. We held hands and cuddled during that.
After the movie, I asked him sort of what his intentions were, and he said, I'd like to see where this is going. So, I kissed him, we made out for a while. All systems go.
Next day, we made a date to meet again in a few days. But then he got all excited and asked to come over just then. Neither of us had a big enough window for more that a quickie tho, so I told him I'd rather wait til the date we'd set a few days later.
Early on the day of the date, he cancelled saying his ex was emotionally abusing their younger kids too much and he needed to deal with the issues. I haven't heard from him again in 2 days. So, back burner on that guy.
Next guy, P, messaged me on Fetlife a month ago. We started chatting daily. He indicated he had a sort of gf, but she was vanilla and he really wasn't satisfied with that. He lives an hour away, has parttime custody of his 3 teen kids.
We chatted of many things, some sexy stuff as well as day to day stuff, and after a couple weeks set a date to meet last week at a pub near me. Day of, he cancelled b/c his youngest son, age 13, had his 3rd bout of strep of the year and needed medical attention. Told me he still wanted to meet me next week and would let me know Friday (today) if he could get away Monday or Tuesday.
So, today he didnt get online first thing in the morning as he had always done. So I texted him and he imm. got on chat and said he didnt want to meet me after all, he was "getting serious" with his vanilla gf. Fucking liar. He totally led me on, but words were, it was all "it's a free for all, just poly fun." ARRGGHHH...
3rd guy. S. We had 2 dates last year and then he had family issues, a death in the family, and moved away for a while to deal with things. Now he's back and wants to get together next week. He apologized and was very complimentary of what he remembered of me. Let's see if he also bails on me!
