Several months ago, I went out with this guy a few times. Everything was going well, we really hit it off, but after a couple of weeks, he cancelled a date at the last minute and sent me an e-mail the next day saying he was sorry, but nothing about going out again. I wrote him back and said that I was upset about what happened, but since he was sorry I would give him another chance. No response back from him. Several months went by, I had a couple dates with other guys, but no new relationships. Then, out of the blue, the guy from a few months ago e-mails and says how sorry he is for how he acted, and we started talking, and he told me he would love another chance. So, we went out again last week. He was very sincere, and said he was glad I gave him a second chance, and he said he would call me, which he did 4 days later. But, he did not ask me out for a second date when he called! After about 10 minutes of trying to figure out what was going on, I called him back and asked him if we wanted to go out again sometime (I know, I probably shouldn't have done that.) He said he absolutely wanted to go out again, but was going out of town for work that week and again that weekend (which I know he really is, it's not some excuse) and that he was waiting until he could make definite plans. Three days later, and I have not heard from him, and now he is gone until next week. Should I expect him to call when he gets back into town? Am I right to be skeptical after the way he treated me in the past, even though he has been much more honest with me this time around? I would appreciate any ideas on this situation!!

Or some variation of that. I think he's playing you. I know you probably like him a lot so that will be hard for you to do, but I do think it's what you need to do.
