I agree don't give up.

I used an online dating site for oh a few years before I met the right one. I went on a lot of dates that didn't work out, some good, some horrible and some just weird.. But the dating was something I needed to do to help me solidly sort myself out. I had been in one bad marriage to my only bf, so I did not have much experience at all. I also found learning how to say no, or to ask for what I wanted very good skills to learn that I was lacking. Also building and working on my self esteem.

I met my bf online tho, even tho he only lives 2 doors down from my sister. Kinda funny but maybe we were meant to meet somehow and bumping into each other in person wasn't happening. But we have been together 6 years and have a pretty strong healthy relationship.

Don't give up, frustrating yes.. But you can meet someone. There really is no reason why not if you remain open to it. Maybe he was too nervous to ask so he waited, who knows. But maybe talk to him and give him one more chance.
