Question
Hello,

I met a very nice gentleman I was interested in and he asked for my number and gave me his. He was very educated and very intellectual, exceedingly polite and dressed very classy. Both of us have doctoral degrees.

He texted me at 11:30 pm on Thursday night asking me out for the weekend but I was already asleep. The next day (Friday) we talked on the phone but we couldn't really talk since we were both at work. He texted me numerous times during the day and asked me if we wanted a date for Saturday. He called my phone but it was off, so he left a voicemail saying that he was free tomorrow (Saturday) and to let him know if I wanted to get together. I didn't get off work until 10 pm...so I called him back then and got his voicemail, left a message.

Saturday came, he didn't call me, so I texted him, no response, then I called him (but didn't leave a message) no response. I guess it's kinda like he stood me up, not sure.

From your experience in life, what do you think happened.

He's not interested? Or was he just keeping his options open for Saturday, that's why he contacted me late Saturday night, but he found some other girl already to spend his saturday with, so he blew me off?

I'm surprised a mature older man with advanceed degrees would just blow a girl off.

All he had to do was just text me and say he couldn't make it. Would've taken 5 seconds.

let me know what you think - thanks -

Answer
I honestly don't know what happened, it could be he lost interest or was just using you as a back-up in case his other Saturday date fell through but at the same time, he could have lost his phone or even be hurt, there is no way to tell what truly happened to him.
