So I contacted him
So, I texted him last night "Hey, I'd love to get together again if you're up for it. If not, just let me know. I really enjoyed meeting you."
And, today he wrote back "Hi T--things are well. Super busy working after the storm. I sort of met someone and want to give it a chance. I definitely enjoyed meeting you as well (: " (Hmmm, which was was that smile supposed to go?)
Then I answered "J, most guys would have ignored me, so I want to thank you for being honest and up front. I wish you the best. If things don't work out and you ever wanna have that second date, give me a buzz."
So, that's that, I've got my answer. Just chalking it up to "next!" but I just don't meet a lot of guys, let alone ones I like after the first date, and just sucks.....I feel like I'm always the girl they like, but then end up meeting someone they like more.

Thank you! Trying not to give up hope! It's tough, but I'm trying. Believing that I may one day have love in my life again is almost harder than leaving my cheating lying exhusband!
I'm sorry TEM
But you're right -- at least he was honest and didn't try to hide from the situation!
Anyway, sorry this one isn't working out (at least for now), but I hope good things start happening for you soon!
Give yourself a ton of credit for just being honest with him. That takes guts instead of sitting there wondering to yourself "what happened, does he like me, does he not, did he lose my number, what if what if what if". You just took the bull by the horns and put it out there, he responded maturely, and now you know.
It might not seem like good news, but I think it speaks volumes about how emotionally ready you ARE for a real, solid relationship. It's not easy to get to the point where you put your pride aside and really lay out your feelings, at the risk of getting a bit hurt. Great job, TEM.
Even though he's not the one I, too, have a feeling the right one isn't far off for you!
This 100%!
I'm sorry it didn't work out, but you are in such an awesome place right now.
Sorry it didn't work out. Kudos to him for being honest and up front.
I wouldn't have added that on part on the end. You don't want to be sloppy seconds. If a man wants you, he will chase you.
Don't stop believing TEM. You will find someone worthy of you!
Thanks, it means a lot!
You and I could be BFF's then.
I'm sorry...totally been there before and it sucks, but at least he let you know.
