We have forgotten how to be social and some are simply scared of it. I noticed the instant you suggested an offline meeting the chat quickly dissolved. Hookups are simply sex. Chats are just chats. Real connection occurs somewhere in the middle, and reality is more than some are prepared for. Social media is really social distancing.

I can tell you exactly what happened. You ever flirt at a gay bar & the dude keeps looking over your shoulder at who walks in the door? When you chat, sometimes the guy responds right away. Sometimes minutes go by. Because some other hottie has messaged. Same with you. At some point he met someone better. First indication was him suddenly not looking for serious. He ghosted you to avoid being cussed out by you. It's common courtesy to say you're not interested anymore......and be screamed at for rejection. ♥️ I lasted on Grindr for 20 days. When I joined, a guy chatted me up. We were gonna meet in a few hours. He ghosted me. Then a few days later he messaged me like we had no history. Maybe he was drunk or on drugs. Then I stumbled on a gay cruisey parking lot. No problem meeting hot guys, conversation, sex. Why do we waste time online? Real guys are looking to meet real guys in real life? Maybe it's an age thing. When you get older, you have more sex in the daytime. Your social skills you learned 40 years ago sure do come in handy. You might meet your soulmate daytime-cruising. I did. Good luck Keven.

I appreciate your attention to detail and consideration of others. I myself am not a man but I can understand your concerns. I have a friend (a man) who did that. He is from a big city so maybe that’s a factor, but he went far beyond neutral. He was mean, inviting people to a social outing on Zoom right in front of me, and then told me I wasn’t invited. He is married to a man so it’s not a romantic thing between us. He also was in a zoom discussion with me and when someone asked me about my mother who almost bled to death from a tumor, he said “so do you think that you’re logical and we are not?” It was very hurtful

Hi Keven, I thought this was going to turn out of be a positive Dating App Story and then your hopes were crushed.

I kinda feel like the default for these situations is like the guy who told you needed to marry nice Muslim girl, like maybe the guy here was only open to a one time? But then why even go there with the instagram odd Also I feel like the liquid courage often plays the role in someone boldly initiating and then ghosting, it’s almost like what other explanation could there be?

Keven people are tired and too tired for games. No one wants to play and people hurt themselves in the community by their actions. You cannot allow yourself to get upset by the actions of others, but no one really wants to deal with this on a regular basis. People should be more mindful of others. All too often guys say they want to date and more and they self sabotage and create situations that do not need to happen. I hope you will meet someone so you can get off that merry go round. I leave you with this: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d599qrN-ravOfoE.html
