Have you ever dated someone who thought a "no show" or a "text without a response" was no big deal to get upset at or angry? Well, I have and even to my surprise I accepted some of his creative excuses but mostly because the guy seemed to have pretty legit reasons as to why he was a "no call , no show." So all was forgiven most times. However, it wasn't until stranger things started to take place that I started to raise my eyebrows.
The man I was dating started canceling dates on me, and one time even shared that he had some "random " male friend come visit him from out of town. Everyday that this friend was suppose to leave, there was another reason why "he" was still there . Any man that's not strong enough to give you the courtesy you deserve is simply not worth your time. I'm glad that this man showed me who he was sooner than later especially before we made anything official. Real men are consistent, have conversations, and are not afraid to be vulnerable.
So when all else fails, just use the common sense approach to dating. If it doesn't feel right then it's not right.
Here's a list of things NOT to ignore:
1. He places phone "face down" and ringer is always on silent
2. He's a serial text "deleter"
3. He's creative with excuses
4. He's always "too busy"
5. He opts to "text" instead of "calling you"
Yes, it's common sense but how many of us are guilty of not using our better judgement. Date on and date smart. 💋
