Thank you for sharing. I felt like I was weird or clingy or something wrong with me when it came to Shane, but this experience is similar to mine. Everything seemed great, as I shared in the thread - messaging was kind, friendly, joking. He even called me on the phone to tell me not to be so self-deprecating, so I thought things were awesome. Like you, the last appointment got blown off, but it wasn’t the first time. The thing is, I usually show up at appointments early, and one time he told me an excuse similar to yours, but he drove off in front of me (I had arrived 30 minutes early because I feared California traffic). The day of our last encounter when he cancelled because of some major thing going on, someone else messaged him after our call and showed me the messages, and he got booked for a time that was during our appointment. So much depends on his mood, i think, as well as what kind of money he might make from various people (he charges different people different amounts), as well as possible actual scheduling issues. It is what it is.
