I talked to a guy that I met through a dating site and found him to be arrogant and rude. I dont' know if it is me or what. I think conversation should be relaxed and casual but this guy talked at me instead of with me. I felt like I was a little kid while he went on about what makes a relationship work, even though he is divorced himself. I started to say something and he said " mary you're interupting me, I haven't finished my thought". I found that rude of him as he was hogging the conversation and I couldn't get much in edgewise. He went on and and on about attraction and how important it is and I agree but when someone talks nonstop about that it sounds like they are really picky, and with 3 children , he shouldn't be so picky as alot of those younger pretty women might not want a guy with so much baggage. He kept going on and on and finally he said he had to go to bed, Thank God. If this guy is such an expert on relationships, why is he single?

He claims to be a christian is of the same religion as me but he is really full of himself, not humble at all. Going on about how safe our city is because he has never been a victim even though I told of what happened to me. He appearantly doen'st live in the real world. He also thanks that there could really be something real between and 80 year old man and a20 year old woman. How dumb

Every guy that I have talked to before even if I knew they werenl't the one for me was pleasant and at least I enjoyed chatting with them but this guy made me feel like I was back in school and I'm over 40. He had to go to bed early though because he has to get up at 4 am to work out for 2 hours. So into himself I guess.

Why is he single? Lol! Well, Mary, I think you know the answer to that already. And just think....if he's that annoying online, imagine having a date with him! Or even worse, kids!!!! And his rant about attraction? I don't know any rude people that I consider attractive in the least, how about you? Fortunately, you found out in a hurry about little Mr. Dictator, but best of luck to you in the future, dear. Its a jungle out there.

He was probably just real nervous.
Some people when they get excited,
get real chatty, and feel like they need
to take charge to stay in control.
When he said let me finish, that's a
sign that he has rehearsed his speech,
so he doesn't feel like a complete fool
and forget what he's talking about.
Normally, he probably doesn't have
a clue what to say. He wanted to make
a good impression so bad, he screwed up
like only a man can. He's probably really
felling it right about now.
If you were attracted to him at all ,
maybe you should give it another chance.
Be honest and open and tell him you didn't
think it went well, but let's start over.
Tell him why you didn't have the date,
you thought you were going to have.
Most good relationships aren't made on
the first day, or even the second.
It can't hurt to try.

It sounds like he wanted to talk to a therapist but you were the closest he could get. Ir he is really divorced with three kids, I would red flag him right there. Why bother when he isn't even fun to talk to?? And no, this guy is NOT an expert. If he was, you wouldn't be so disappointed with the chat.

he was being both and I think that maybe the problem with his marriage was that he never got a word in edge wise so now he has to unleash to someone and look at how lucky you are to have put up with that one.. I'd say for you to just be a friend to him and let him get all that anger out, there could be a really nice guy under all that :) :) :)

Sounds like the guy is a real a*s. Thank god you don't have to ever talk to him again. Make sure you stay out of contact with him. He sounds like a real weird one.

He can be an expert on relationships, but he sounds annoying and rude which is why he is single. You did the right thing.

Mr. Expert is single because he can't find someone who worships him as much as he worships himself. It's kind of sad when you really think about it, because the only person who's being cheated out of a happy life is him.

well, i don't think you should make conclusions based on his past, or the fact that he's single.
i think it might be better to focus on his talking so much and not letting you speak.
sure, he could have some problems that he wants to vent about...... but not allowing you to speak or comment at all - that was mean of him. definitely rude, i agree.
if you'd like someone who'll listen as well as speak, you could email me instead! :D
i love emailing about anything.

Ummmmm - if he was such a jerk, then:
a) Why did you talk to him so long
b) Why are you posting a Question about him
Sometimes people are simply fools. And those are the folks you avoid...
