I met a guy on dating app. He send message and chat with with on phone everyday for a month. He has verbally asked me to meet up, but did not really manage to work out an actual meeting. I think he is not very interested in meeting up with me, and I am not happy with this finding. What should I do?

Dear User,
It sounds like you have been communicating with someone you met on a dating app for a month now, and although he has expressed interest in meeting up with you, he has not followed through on making concrete plans. It is understandable that you feel disappointed and unsure about where you stand with him. Let's explore this situation from both Buddhist and psychological perspectives.
From a Buddhist perspective, it is important to remember that everything is impermanent and constantly changing. This includes relationships and connections we make with others. While it is natural to feel attached to someone we have been talking to for a while, it is also important to recognize that we cannot control the actions or feelings of others. The more we cling to expectations and desires, the more we suffer when they are not met.
From a psychological perspective, it is important to communicate your needs and boundaries clearly. It seems like you are interested in meeting this person in person, but are not satisfied with the lack of follow-through. It may be helpful to express your feelings and ask for clarification on his intentions. If he is not interested in meeting up, it is better to know sooner rather than later so that you can move on and find someone who is a better match for you.
In terms of coaching advice, I recommend taking some time to reflect on your own needs and values in a relationship. What are you looking for in a partner? What are your deal-breakers? Once you have a clear understanding of what you want, communicate this to the person you are talking to and see if they are on the same page. If not, it is better to cut your losses and move on. Remember, you deserve someone who is excited to meet you and make plans with you.
