A similar thing happened to me too, although we didn't even get past the first date. And the thing was, I would initiate all of the contact between us, so when I stopped trying to talk to him, it was like I literally didn't exist to him anymore. I mean, he won't even look at me if we're in the same room…. I was thinking that he was just really shy, but so am I. I haven't had a chance to talk to him about it yet though…I will foolishly continue to give him the benefit of the doubt.

But if it was all just a game, why?! If people want to feel attractive, just go do some innocent flirting. Why break someone's heart along the way? I'm someone who never goes on dates ever, so this was a big deal for me. And if you don't like someone that way, don't lead them on…that's just cruel. But I'm preaching to the choir….


The reply to this (at least for me) is completely ignoring me. And isn't that just playing games too? That's why I know I need to have a frank and honest conversation with this guy, just so all games (if there are any) are resolved.
