why would a divorced guy lose interest when all was good?

I've been divorced about 6 years and recently met what I thought was an awesome guy. He was divorced twice We dated a couple of times and our feelings were pretty intense. He called a week ago saying he, his brother and nephew were going up north for the weekend and would call when he returned. that was Monday and he hasn't called. Why would a guy show all the signs he's interested, then he doesn't call?.

    well i would tell you what i wish my friends would have told me when i was single and dating guys like that, " he's just not that into you". and i know its a harsh thing to hear and thats probably why my "friends" just didnt tell me straight out. i just know from my past experience, im married 4 yrs by the way now, that when a guy is truly into you, he WILL call and make an effort. he WILL tell you up front and honestly how he digs you and will prove it with his actions. i guess thats why i married my husband, he says what he means and means what he says, and i think that is what a real man would do in all areas of his life, not just with his love interest. so he may be nice and attractive and show signs of interest at one point , but if it fizzles that fast then i would not waste my time. like u said u have been divorced 6 yrs and i think your probably old enough to be past the mind games guys and girls play in the dating game. so good luck and i wish you well.

    He's distancing himself from you when everything was going well because he doesn't want to be in, or isn't ready for a committed relationship. He wants to keep his options open.

    If he's not calling, when he told you he'd call, that's information that should clue you in to how he feels about you and the relationship. Go by his actions...not by what he says he's going to do. If a man wants to get in touch with you, spend time with you, believe me, he will. Likewise, if he doesn't want to call or see you, he won't. Also, the fact that he's a two-time loser should give you some insight into his character. Sorry, I know that's probably not what you wanted to hear, but that's my call on that scenario.

    Guys are strange. Avoidance and ignoring are what they do best when they are no longer interested. Communication and honesty are just not in their vocabulary, even if you beg, grovel and plead with them to be truthful (even when the truth may hurt you and you're ok with that, as long as they tell the truth).

    you dated a couple of times doesnt mean interested in long term could be just the sex he wants nothing more. and he is playing head games with you cause he knows you want him.

    He is not interested in you and he didn't want to tell you. In other words, he just wants you to go away. He has forgotten about you by now. That is just how men are.

    He may be afraid of commitment. He's already made 2 mistakes.
