He shot me down today and I feel so hurt and mad.

We are like acquaintances. For a loooooong time it looked like he liked me and I liked him. He would show me so much attention and be really nice to me, tell me things about himself and look at me like I was the only person he could see. Then he would withdraw from me and avoid me and it would be like he was running from me. He is an older "mature" man and I was giving him the benefit of the doubt that he might not be into flirting or be shy. He's not any of those things. Apparently, he just likes to play when he's feeling good about himself and drop me when he feels like it and I'm so upset. Today I tried to approach him to talk and ask why he doesn't talk to me and he kept shutting me down and was cold to me. When only last week he was different and looking at me like he wanted me. Then and there I finally had my answer that I was wrong about him. He's probably married or something and seeking attention and then running when he gets it and that pisses me off so much! I feel like crying and screaming and I still have to see him every now and then. He hurt me and now I can't even look at him anymore.

So sorry your heart and mind have been put through this. Confronting him was the best thing though. Even if he has a lot going on it only takes a few seconds to express that. Maybe he’s not good at dealing with stress or even good at expressing his feelings, but neither excuse hurting another. When you feel the need to cry or scream, let them both come. Get that frustration out. His actions created darkness within you and it’ll hold on tight until you decide the darkness he infected you with no longer gets to take residency within you.
