Why Did He Lead Me On and Then Disappear
A man often does send us these signals that he is into us right from the beginning of dating. He calls, sets up dates in advance, texts and keeps in touch. You start to get excited and let your guard down. You feel good about this, after all the dating gurus say watch a man's actions and not his words right? So what happens here? Why are you are left wondering why he disappeared without a clue.
It's important to realize men often live in the moment. Sure they have goals, just not at this moment. They may give you gifts in the beginning, nice thoughtful phone calls and want to spend time with you. These things are great and hopefully they will last, but they don't always do so. The man has one goal in the moment upon meeting you. His goal is to woo you and win you. This does not always translate that he wants a commitment.
The man who you felt lead you on and disappeared may very well want a relationship. He didn't lie to you when he told you this necessarily. He really does want a relationship, he just doesn't know if he wants it with you or right now. Have you ever started dating a guy and really liked him in the beginning only to get a few weeks or even months down the road and decide he isn't really the guy for you. You still want a relationship, you just realize it's not with him. You may have even told him a relationship is what you wanted. Should you be tarred and feathered for changing your mind?
If you don't think men are motivated by winning, think again. Observe them in a group watching a ball game or race or other sport and you decide. When they meet a girl that gets their interest, their goal for the time being becomes to win her. In the beginning, you can enjoy this winning behavior, but the true test comes later.
If you have been dating a while and his efforts stay the same or increase, you may have found a keeper. If on the other hand, you notice his efforts begin to decrease, chances are he isn't in it for the long haul. Hopefully you won't be so hopelessly in love at this point that you will struggle to let him go or start making excuses for him. Hopefully you won't still try to hold on and hope that he will change his mind or be left scratching your head wondering why he disappeared.

Have you seen more than one man disappear from your life? There is a real truth to why men disappear.

The Disappearing Man Syndrome
Have you ever blown a guy off, as in avoided him? Answer that honestly. Has there ever been a guy who was a nice guy but you didn't feel any attraction for him. You wished you could but you didn't, so you told him you just wanted to be friends. In reality, you probably didn't care if you remained friends or not, but you didn't want to hurt his feelings. Men often skip over the let's be friends and just disappear instead.
Have you ever dated a guy for a couple of months and then he got clingy. You began to doubt the relationship and you started creating a little distance. Seems this just made him more insecure and he began to ask you where the relationship was headed and started to want to talk about the relationship more and more, dissecting anything you said. What did you want to do with this guy. My guess, you wanted to disappear.
Some women talk so much about where the relationship is going that they talk themselves right out of the relationship. This pushes women away when men do it, why are men different. Most women are trying so hard to get the outcome that they desire that they kill the attraction in the process.
I got an email from a client. She had been chatting with this man online for a couple of days and they seem to be hitting it off. They made a date. Three days prior to the date he called it off. Seems someone he had previously met was back in the picture. He was respectful enough to tell her the truth, yet she still wondered if she should stay in touch if it worked out. Are you kidding me? He just told her loud and clear why he disappeared. Fatal mistake, don't hold on at all to the disappearing man.
Men Disappear for one of three reasons:
1. He is not that into you. It's not his fault. We can't help it if a man isn't into us, no more than we can help when we are not into them. It happens. Move on. Find a man who is into you. He is out there.
2. He is not ready for a relationship. He may think he is ready. You may have found him on a dating site. You would think all men there should be ready. They do state that in their profile. It doesn't mean a man is ready in reality though, trust me. If he is not ready for a relationship, that is a top reason why he disappeared.
3. It's not him, it's you. You did something to scare him off. Something that didn't make him feel safe. Maybe you got to clingy. Maybe you started acting too much like a girlfriend too fast Something killed his attraction, you can count on that. If it hadn't, he would not be one of the men that disappear.

With the first two it's a no brainer really. You can't make these men ready and you can't make them like you. You don't need a man who isn't ready and you don't want one that isn't sure if he wants you. If it's number 3, you may not really understand what men treasure in a woman and what makes them feel safe and fall in love.

Why Men Leave - It's Not Him, It's You
Attraction is a key ingredient in a relationship. When a man leaves, this ingredient has somehow gotten lost. Life can get in the way often. Stress happens, things happen in life that put outside pressures on relationships. If the attraction is lost, men often leave as opposed to working it out but why?
Men must feel like they are making you happy. The day the man feels like it's a job to make you happy, he leaves eventually. It's what makes men happy, to make the woman they love happy. If you don't assure your man that he makes you happy, you could be partly to blame. If you are a woman that complains he won't feel he is making you happy I promise. Complaining only puts distance between couples.
Many women struggle with men leaving during the early stages of dating. There are many reasons why men leave in the early stages. I could write a book. The main and only reason though that you should be concerned with is the fact that yes he did leave. For some reason he did not see you as girlfriend or wife material. Hard pill to swallow indeed.
Often women spend so much time analyzing why a man left. They go through it over and over in their heads and never get the right answer. My philosophy is it's ok to analyze. It will come in handy one day when you meet the right man that does not leave you will be better able to recognize him because you won't feel the need to analyze him to death.
I would love to be able to tell you that it's not you, it's him and that is why men leave, but the truth usually is it's you. There is something that reaches his core and tells him you aren't the one. Some reason his attraction fades. If this keeps happening to you, it pays to understand how attraction really works and what keeps the attraction going. It's way more than a physical thing, it's a deep emotional attraction that holds him.
The main reason why men leave is about attraction. It has started to fade. The more it fades, the more you may be feeling the disconnect and this may cause you to hold on tighter or start to question and feel insecure in your relationship. This will only assure his disappearance. The tighter you hold on, the greater your chances are from becoming another woman asking why do men leave.

Do you truly understand why men leave? Do you kid yourself by saying they are jerks or making excuses for them? You can stop the disappearing man syndrome simply by understanding how attraction works for men and never be the woman men leave again.

Stop Getting Hurt By Men Forever
Below written by Evan Marc Katz for the Lovely Ladies that follow my blog.
The One Thing You Need to Learn to Stop Getting Hurt By Men Forever –
I’ve got a few questions for you about your love life that will show you a completely different way to approach your love life. Ready? Go.
Q: How many times in your life have you been in love?
A: Two? Three? Four?
Q: How many of those relationships lasted?
A: If you’re single, the answer is zero.
Q: What percent of men is cute, successful, smart, kind, funny, compatible AND emotionally available for a long-term relationship?
A: According to most women, about .00001%.
Q: What percent of those amazing men also think YOU’RE cute, smart, kind, funny, compatible and emotionally available for a relationship?
A: Not enough, and rarely the right ones.
When you look at all of these things together, without any emotion, you’ll see exactly what I see: the fact that ANY relationship gets off the ground is remarkable.
To the naked eye, FAILURE is the default setting in dating.
You heard me. Failure.
Now, to be clear: I’ve failed a LOT more than you have.
I’ve gone on over 300 dates and committed to probably fifteen “girlfriends” before getting married. Which is why I’m not too fazed by failure.
You shouldn’t be, either.
Given that 99% of men are definitely NOT your future husband, getting upset when this proves to be true is like getting upset that you didn’t win the Powerball. Yeah, it’s unfortunate that you lost, but it’s also quite predictable.
Which is why I want you to write this down on a Post-It note right now:
“No man is real until he’s your boyfriend.”
A cute photo, a winning profile, flirty emails, an incredible first date, intense chemistry, mind-blowing sex…. NONE of these things mean he’s your boyfriend.
It’s not that you’re “wrong” to get excited about a promising man; it’s that, in 99% of instances, it’s premature and you set yourself up for heartbreak.
Your takeaway is to not get too emotionally involved when it comes to a guy with “potential”.
Start getting excited when he’s taken his profile down, called you his girlfriend, met your family, and started making vacation plans for the summer.
The other bit of perspective I’d like to provide is that your last guy’s disappearance shouldn’t be all that disappointing.
Sure, you felt disappointment. It’s hard not to take things like that personally.
Except for two facts:
--> 1. This wasn’t personal
--> 2. You didn’t lose your future husband, so why be disappointed?
Although your guy may have initially pushed for immediate commitment, he ended up having second thoughts. Reasonable second thoughts, I might add.
It may not be popular to say, but if you were seeing a guy, and you drew the conclusion that you didn’t want to spend the next 40 years with him, you’d probably have to reconsider whether you were ready to commit.
Your last boyfriend’s flaking doesn’t mean he’s evil.
It means he leapt before he looked.
He shot first and asked questions later.
He over promised and under delivered.
In short, he screwed up and ended up hurting an innocent woman.
No one is at fault.
And if no one is at fault, there’s no value in beating yourself up about what she did “wrong”. The answer is nothing.
There’s no value in getting pissed at your disappearing guy. He’s like a manwho was driving 90 mph on the freeway and missed his exit. He was so enthusiastic that he was oblivious to the fact that he wasn’t really ready to commit to you.
Finally, there’s no value in lamenting what “could have been”. It’s over. Move along.
The right guy will come along soon enough – and he will certainly not disappear.
But the only way for this to happen is for you to let go of your negativity, to let go of your fear of getting hurt, to let go of your frustration at the men who don’t write to you online, and to embrace the unknown of the dating process.
Put another way: if you quit dating and men entirely, you don’t meet ANYBODY.
If you persevere, another cute guy might waltz in her door next week – and never want to leave.
“Never, never, never quit,” said Winston Churchill, and he’s 100% right.
The only thing you can do when things go wrong in love is to keep going.
And if you need a push in the right direction, I would highly recommend checking out my eBook, “Why He Disappeared: The Smart, Strong, Successful Woman’s Guide to Understanding Men and Keeping the Right One Hooked Forever”.
Why He Disappeared
In a matter of minutes, you’ll be able to let go of all of the pain in your past, learn how to choose a better boyfriend in the future, and understand what men are thinking for the rest of your life.

Top Reasons Why Men Disappear - It's About Eggs Again
It happens a lot, women meet and interesting man, have some great dates, good connection and then the radio silence. He stops calling as often and you can feel him distancing from you. You wonder what you did or what exactly made him disappear. One of the main reasons why men disappear is about your eggs in his basket.
Have you ever heard the term "don't put all of your eggs in one basket"? In the dating world I associate that with putting all your hopes on one guy. Often a woman meets a man, she likes him and instantly she stops dating others, she closes all doors to other options. She thinks this is logical. The guy is showing interest, calling, taking her out so why shouldn't she give him a chance and give him all of her attention? Slow down sister, if you do this you will soon be asking why he disappeared.
For starters, usually the guy isn't on the same page. Not in the beginning. Men aren't in a hurry to jump into a relationship. If you put all of your eggs in his basket early in the dating game, he is going to be overwhelmed. He now has to be responsible for all of your eggs. Wow! That's a lot of responsibility. Men sense it when you put all your hopes onto them. It overwhelms a man and you are left wondering why he disappeared.
If you just put all your eggs in his basket, he doesn't have to work to get your eggs. You just fell into the girlfriend role without him having to put anything into it. That doesn't make you much of a challenge does it? It's the woman who makes him work to get those eggs that wins his heart, not the woman who just gives them away.
Men really don't like instant relationships. It takes all the fun out of it. The thrill of the chase or should I say the Easter Egg Hunt. Women approach dating differently more times than not. They are looking for a permanent partner. Often their biological clock is ticking. Men don't have this problem. They approach dating as fun and if the woman excites him, just gives glimpses of her eggs this offers him a challenge, he goes into full pursuit.
If you are truly looking for a life partner, it's best to scatter your eggs. You can't possibly know if this one man after a few dates even knows how to care for your eggs. He may leave them in the sun, he may drop them and break them. Then where are you left? Eggless because you gave them all to him.
Date others, have a life. Distribute your eggs around so that if one man drops the basket, all won't be lost. See which man handles your eggs the best. The man that works for your eggs will be the one to invest hope into. So many woman hang onto the men that disappear or put all of their eggs in the basket of the wrong man.

He Says He Needs Space - Are You Losing Him
Usually when a man says he needs his space it is a warning sign that something doesn't feel right with him. He may feel smothered. He may feel fear at the loss of his freedom. One thing is for sure though, if a man says he needs his space, you best give it to him or you very well may lose him for good.
The worst thing you can do when a man says he needs his space is to hold on tighter or try harder to convince him that you are the one for him. This just reinforces the fact that he is smothered, you may be controlling and he may indeed have the urge to run. Most times when a man says he needs his space, you are about to lose him.
For a man to fall in love with you, he needs to think about you and to think about you, he needs to miss you. If he said he needed space, well he sure isn't missing you is he? If he said he needs his space, you can rest assured you have been around too much. Maybe you are calling him, wanting to know what he is doing. He sees this as checking up on him and a huge threat to his freedom.
Here is a true story about how a woman gave a man his space by accident and turned her relationship around. Sherry and Matt had been dating for about 6 months. Matt started calling less, and the distancing himself. After she asked him several times what was going on, he finally told her he needed his space. She was distraught. He was losing interest. She was sure she was losing him. Fact is, she later found out, she was in losing him.
As fate would have it though, Sherry got a contract with her employer where she had to go out of town for weeks at the time. From her hotel room, her phone got poor reception. She couldn't call him and he couldn't call her. She had no choice, she gave him his space. It was killing her. She wanted to talk to him, convince him that it could work.
Why He Disappeared!
Funny thing happened. Matt wasn't hearing from Sherry much anymore. He started wondering if she had moved on. He started missing her. He started thinking about her. She came home for the weekend and they had a great time. Monday though, she had to leave again. This time Matt made arrangements of a time they could talk. Space? Matt forgot all about how he needed his space. The distance between him and Sherry reignited his attraction for her.
Why He Disappeared!
What happened here is that Sherry wasn't always available anymore. This made him start thinking about her. A man can't think about you if you are always around. To fall in love, a man has to think about you. If your guy says he wants his space, and you don't want to lose him for good, give it to him. Allow him to miss you. Don't be one of those women who are wondering why he disappeared.

She came home for the weekend and they had a great time. Monday though, she had to leave again. This time Matt made arrangements of a time they could talk. Space? Matt forgot all about how he needed his space. The distance between him and Sherry reignited his attraction for her.
Why He Disappeared!
What happened here is that Sherry wasn't always available anymore. This made him start thinking about her. A man can't think about you if you are always around. To fall in love, a man has to think about you. If your guy says he wants his space, and you don't want to lose him for good, give it to him. Allow him to miss you. Don't be one of those women who are wondering why he disappeared.

Why Men Disappear After The First Few Dates
It happens, more than you know. You meet a man, have a date or a few dates, it seems great, then poof, he drops off the face of the earth. He becomes another one of the men that disappear.
You are left wondering what happened. You wonder is it something you did. You are familiar with the line "It's not you, it's me", I am sure. Well if this keeps happening to you, chances are good it is you. You may be doing something you aren't even aware of that makes men disappear.
Often women meet a man they really like and they start to stress. Will he call? Does he like me? Is he thinking long term? Is he dating others? Your mind goes into overdrive. Men can pick this up on their radar if you are stressing over them, even if you don't voice it. They know you are reading too much into it. It puts pressure on the man and this is one thing that makes men disappear.
Men live in the now. They don't go out on one date and start to visualize the future. Women often do. They start seeing couple-hood. They start behaving like a girlfriend way to soon. They obsess if he doesn't call, and start asking their girlfriends what does it mean when he says such and such. If you are analyzing his every word and every move, you are stressed and not living with him in the now. If you want to stop experiencing the men that disappear, learn to live in the present with him. Forget about where it's going and enjoy the time you are together.
Another thing women do when they start that stressing, is they start trying to control the outcome. If he hasn't called her in a few days, she picks up the phone and calls or texts him. She may even suggest they do something together. Slow down girl. The fact of the matter is men love a challenge. You can't stop a man from disappearing by holding on tighter. This is when it becomes not so fun to the guy. He is now worried about meeting your expectations. When he has to worry this soon, he thinks about what it may be like down the road. This is what makes many men disappear.
If you have just had a few dates with a man, and you want to keep him, relax and go with the flow. Enjoy his company and let him lead. A few dates does not make a relationship. If you start acting like his girlfriend or expecting boyfriend behavior from him this soon, chances are good he will be one of the men that disappear.

Will He Stand Beside You or Will He Disappear
It's easy to be a relationship when everything is new, it seems so perfect. You learn something new about him every day. You text flirty text messages, you think of him all the time. You leave your weekends open because you know or you hope you will be with him. It's so great in the beginning.
Why He Disappeared!
What happens though when some of the newness wears off? What happens if something happens in your life where you can't be that fun, carefree girl anymore? What if you get laid off or a family member gets sick? When the going gets tough, does he have what it takes to stand beside you or will he be one of those men that disappear?
During rough times you are stressed and can't really give him that fun loving girl. He has to be really invested in you to stick around. Does he really want to drive you to the hospital or help you move? If you are going through a rough time, you really do need a man who stands beside you, not one of those men who disappear.
Why He Disappeared!
When we are going through hard times, this is when we need our partner the most and this is when he often pulls away. Then not only are you going through emotions with your life stresses, now you are left trying to hold onto a man who you fear will disappear. Add one more worry to your list.
The sad thing is, if he is a man who disappears, this is how he acts when he's asked to be selfless. This is how he acts when he doesn't get his way. This is how he acts when the chips are down. So why would you want to commit to a man who doesn't have the decency to put your needs first when you need him the most? Because you love him? Because you have a great time together and the chemistry is out the roof?
Why He Disappeared!
You just got a glimpse of the rest of your life. A man who doesn't support you, a man who disappears when you're at your weakest is not a man to keep. How a man reacts in a crisis says a lot about how he will behave in the future. If your man is not supportive, consider it a bullet dodged. If you stay and try to salvage a relationship with him, you are setting yourself up for a lifetime of disappointments.

How Evan Marc Katz Changed My Life
Evan Marc Katz is a relationship/dating coach and author of an inspiring book called "Why He Disappeared". His no nonsense approach cuts right to the bone and takes all the guess work out of dating and relationships. He is a man that communicates to women in a frank, matter of fact way exactly how men think and process a relationship.
I went through countless relationships in my past guessing where I stood with men. I would be dating a guy and suddenly he or I stopped feeling the attraction. I wondered often why men disappear. Katz explains this with crystal clarity in his book.
Why He Disappeared!
It's not always that we attract the wrong men into our lives, it's more about we accept the wrong men in our lives. We fall in love with their potential more than who they really are. They start out dating putting their best foot forward, a few months go by and they start getting distant. We stay hoping to get the man back to where he was in the beginning. Katz explains why this happens and what you can do about it.
I no longer struggle with my dating or relationships. I know what to look for and I understand a lot more how men really think. I have no doubts I will not find myself stuck and unhappy in dead end relationships anymore.
Because of Katz, I was able to let go of a man who although great it would seem, really wasn't making me happy. I held onto him for all the wrong reasons which is where this book, Why men disappear helped me.
Why He Disappeared!
I left the relationship confident and without regrets. Pain was minimum. I am not dating again and have several good candidates in the line up. I am not stressed wondering if he is going to call, will I see him, will he disappear or any discomfort.
I recommend this book, it's like the bible of relationships. If you read no other book on relationships, this should be the one. Why He Disappeared!

2 Things a Guy Has to Do to Make Your Relationship Work
Below is an article from Evan Marc Katz that I found very interesting and wanted to share.
You’ve been with cute, charming, charismatic men before.
What did you notice about those guys?
They’re often so caught up in themselves – in their jobs, in their egos, and in their quest for freedom and multiple partners – that they make for bad bets as boyfriends.
On the other hand, you’ve been with guys who’ve made a huge effort on your behalf. Guys who buy you flowers, text you 10 times a day, and tell you they’re falling in love with you after 2 hours together.
What did you notice about those guys?
Their efforts don’t mean anything if you’re not really interested in them. No amount of red roses are going to win you over if he’s not smart, attractive and confident.
So what does this mean for you?
It means that too many times in your life, you’ve put up with the wrong type of men: those who make no effort whatsoever and those who have no personality.
From this point forward, you’re never going to do either again.
From this point forward, you’re going to know the two things that a man MUST have for your relationship to have a chance of success.
Without BOTH of them, you might as well give up on the guy.
WITH both of them, you have every reason to be optimistic about your future.
Click here to understand men forever, and keep reading to learn to make better relationship decisions that prevent you from wasting time on the wrong men.
Do you spend most of your relationship wondering why things can’t be better, easier, more fun, more supportive. Why can’t they be the way they were in the first couple of months, you ask?
My answer: Who F-ing Cares?!
Test 1: Is this fun? Is this easy? Do I enjoy the relationship? Am I happy?
Big fat NO. It doesn’t matter if there was attraction and flirtation three months ago; right NOW, Paulina is Matthew’s emotional booty call. He keeps in touch with her regularly to have a female presence in his life, but conversations aren’t fun, lively, playful, or even interesting. What is SHE getting out of this relationship? Nothing.
Test 2: Is he making an effort?
Big fat NO. Don’t mistake phone calls for dates. A man who wants to be your boyfriend MAKES PLANS to see you IMMEDIATELY. What are you doing tomorrow? The next day? The following weekend? For Thanksgiving?
That’s what we do when we want a relationship. Anything less, you’re settling for crumbs.
So if you look at your current relationship and find yourself in inner turmoil, chances are there are one of two things wrong:
1. You really don’t like the guy that much. You like the IDEA of the guy, but you don’t actually have a fun, supportive, easygoing partner in life.
2. He’s making no effort to see you, commit to you, or grow your relationship.
Either one is grounds for dumping. If this applies to you, get started now.

Why Do Men Disappear
Guys live in the moment. If they are attracted to you, they will jump in, hope to sleep with you and worry about how they feel about you later. Women go into a date usually hoping of long term. A man is not thinking of commitment on those first dates. He is thinking about fun. A man if not seriously into you, gets distracted and missing. That is when the men disappear.
So often the woman will question him. Where is this going? When will I see you again? We even start creating romantic fantasies in our heads. Walks in the moonlight, quiet evenings together cuddling. We are moving forward, yet all of a sudden we realize they are standing still.
A man disappears when he starts feeling the woman pushing forward or sensing she may want more. He may stick around for a while and we see this as leading us on. In his mind, he is justified because he probably gave you enough hints that you ignored. Maybe he didn't call you or keep in touch that often. Maybe he even told you he wanted to take it slow. In his mind, this should tell you he is not serious and that is a hint you should take. It doesn't matter that he was a true Romeo on the dates, you should know better in his mind.
Those hints he drops that we often ignore justifies a man when he disappears. He thinks he has done nothing wrong. When a man says he is busy at work, he is not ready, the timing is bad, along with many other excuses for not stepping up, believe him. He has the potential to be one of the men who disappear.
So what should you do? What should you pay attention to when it comes to guys? How quick he makes and follow through with the next date, that's what you pay attention to. Pay attention to how you feel between dates. Do you feel confident that he will be calling, do you feel confident that he is seeing you in the future. If you are not, chances are you should listen to your gut. You may have one of the men that disappear.
