He sounds like he's playing some sort of weird, childish control game.

In case you ever run into anyone like this again...someone like this is playing common online dating games and is to be avoided.


Probably doesn't want to pay for membership anymore or had a trial membership, so rushed you into IMing. He's not a paying member anymore, so he can't see the new pictures you put up on your profile. Also the IM sometimes reveals a person's full name, if you hadn't given it to him already.


The "I'm not here for your entertainment." was probably a generic message to the world at large, not aimed at you personally. He has a caustic wit.


He wants YOU to call HIM hoping you didn't block your phone number, so he can get your full name and number. He can then keep calling you long after you have dropped him.


Glad to hear you ended it. Better luck with the next one.

"I'm not here for your entertainment." Tells me he's anti-social.

Met a guy who seems to be able to talk spontaneously. Everything seems great. Progressed to OC within 2 days, made plans to meet up, etc.





Problem:


1) He closed me on EH after we got to messenger, without consulting me first. Reason given by him on messenger: I don't need to check EH to talk to you.





2) On messenger, he insists I call him instead of he calls me if he feels like doing voice. I am curious why it matters who calls who. Why type: let's talk, calll me. (a few times this happened)





3) I told him I have new pics up on EH, he asked me to send the pics on messenger.





4) I was on busy mode on messenger, he puts his custom messsage as: I'm not here for your entertainment. When I asked him if that msg was for me, he said no. Fine. But then when I was on available mode (free) and I msged him asking him what he was up to, he didn't reply. I waited for an hour and had to go out, telling him: gtg, have a great evening (thinking he must be busy). He left a note: You left just like that? I was waiting to talk to you.





I would like your opinion. Does this sound like he has an ego problem or am I reading this wrong? Are these warning signs that this guy might be a control freak? Is he indicating that he is expecting me to be all eager and desperate to chase him? I did make the effort to msg him as soon as I was free, asking him what he was up to. Did I make a mistake? Should I have just typed: Ok, am free. let's talk?
I would recommend to stop talking to him...Closign on EH is normal I mean you are talking online and so is the picture as for the rest I don't think that it is sitting right with me...he sounds like he might some cofidence issue and would probably end up being controlling and possesive of you
