I met a guy online and we e-mailed a bit and then he wanted to IM -- we did and we used webcams. we talked for liked 30-40 minutes. It was so much fun (at least I had fun)... then NOTHING. dropped like a hot potato... I am getting over a breakup (7 months) so this stuff really affects me. I keep think "hmmm...well, maybe I was less attractive on webcam?" I do NOT want to feel rejection over this -- any advice?

He's a perverted married man- his wife walked in and caught him and she beat him up. And stole his computer.

Go find someone in real life the amount of people who lie about who they are online is enormous he may not have even been the person he made him self out to be he could have even just been a sociopath who got what he wanted out of you then left, go find real people and start friendships with them they're a lot more fun than a computer screen at times

Don't feel rejection, you just met the guy. I think since you are getting over a relationship, that you shouldn't be looking for a replacement. Get over the relationship first, then email and im. When you are over it and someone doesn't respond the way you would like them to, move on to the next one. Maybe this guy felt your angst over the other guy and didn't want to wait around while you "got over" guy one.

A lot of times people are only looking for quick and superficial meetings online. He may have gotten all that he wanted so no, I wouldn't take it personally if I were you.
If you're getting over a break up and still hurting over it you may want to take a break from meeting guys for a while and work on ways to build up your self-esteem again through interests, friends and personal enjoyments. This way you won't be vulnerable to people who may want to take advantage of you and when you do want to meet someone again you'll feel emotionally stronger.

1 guy in a billion doesn't return your phone calls. What do you do? Wallow in self deprecation and worry, or find a better guy out of those millions, one who realizes how great you are.
If you want to find love, you have to keep looking for it. Date different people, do different things, go about your life and have a good time! One day love will smack into you without you even trying, and you'll know.
So, stop worrying, go do something fun!

When you're getting back into dating after being out for a while (I was out for over 20 years!!), do NOT go into it looking for anything serious. Be picky, make sure you know yourself and what you want. Anyone who is only interested in you based on your looks is not worth any worrying.
Good luck, and lighten up!

The man is an idiot, let it go. There are a lot of other guys out there. Just keep looking. I'm sure you'll find someone great.

If you haven't heard anything from him in a while, go and meet someone else; don't let rejection prevent you from meeting other good guys.

honestly, he may have gotten all the attention that he needed from you. truth be told, he could have masturbated while you all were chatting. he got his release, and he doesnt need you anymore.
