Q: Will He Leave Me Stranded At the Airport?

I know this guy online since march, he lives in another country, different from mine. During april, he came to my country on a business trip. We contact each other daily through emails, phonecalls. He says he like me alot and want to work on things. I have feelings for him too. In fact, I had fallen for him.
He has purchase 2 airtickets for me, on in august, one in november to see him and have a holiday.

Things start to turn sour since june. I don't know whether its his work load, or he like someone else, or its because i'm starting to fall for him. I don't know is it that he's scare of committements or don't want to go any further than this.

I had purchase airticket to see him in oct to celebrate his birthday before things turn sour.

Now he's avoiding me like disease. I can't confirm 100% but it really feels like he's avoiding me. He doesn't reply my sms or emails or calls anymore. He doesn't call me or send me sms anymore. The emails just get lesser and shorter in content, all he says is his work. He used to answer my calls but now he says he's avoiding all his international work calls, and cos when I ring him, its unlisted, so he avoided it as well.

When I visited him in august, things already start to feel strange, the closness is not there anymore, and he stays very far away from me physcially, the distance between us can fit an elephant. I asked him whether he still likes me, and he said yes, or else, he wouldn't have ask me to go over. He said he could have asked me to stay in my country.
Despite all his words, I felt that the action just don't matched. From this trip....Things just start to turn very sour. There's no calls, no text. And 1 email per 1-2 days.


I felt that if I really mean the same to him, he would have still email me or send me text, and definately return my calls once he hear his voicmail.

Its only another 1 month to my departure date. I'm in a delima whether I should go or not. There is no refund to the ticket, its either I go or forsake $800 bucks.

If I don't go, I lose the money, and I wont know what's happening between us.
If I go,i'm afraid that he wont pick me up at the airport and i'm stranded there. (remember I can't contact him at all, its been like this for 1 week)
if he picks me up, i'm afriad that I will just ruin his birthday.
If I ask him to choose, i'm afraid that he will just ask me not to go. I'm really scared.

I know from now till my departure date is 1month, and many things can happen during this 1 month. Things can get better or get worse. Maybe I had wrong him, maybe its really because of stress during work and lack of time. After all, different people hand things differently.
But my instinct tells me i'm right. I'm worried that if for these 30days, I can't even contact him at all, is it extremely stupid of me just to turn up at the airport? Or at his house?

Please tell me what I should do. I'm really confused, worried and heartbroken.

What Does Ut Heart Tell U??
Does he fell the same way?

If hes just wasting ur time then hes not worth all this heart ache.

Hav u seen him personally or a photo of him I mean any1 can say they r some1 behing the screens of the computer. U hardly kno him just by emails. I hav many contacts on my msn but I just call them internet buddys cos I dont kno them presonally. I think u shud get to kno him first then decide. Ppl seem to get along in relationshipsm for some months or even 1-2 yrs. But them later on things get nasty and then u'll kno who he really is. But if he keeeps avoidin ur calls then hes not worth it cos hes just wasting ur time and screwing with ur mind. Good luck u decide

Well, if he keeps saying everything is ok but you feel otherwise I believe the best thing to do is to go there. Yes, it is 800$ but if you have them, and you do or else you wouldn't have considered going there, you should. Confronting him is the only way to find out what is wrong and if he has been avoiding you because he is busy or because he doesn't care about you. You will see that from the way he will look at you, talk to you, and more. I believe you can handle that.

Whatever happens you will gain something-peace of mind. Worst case scenario: he doesn't feel for you and at least you will know and you will get over him. Life doesn't begin, nor end with this guy or any other. Even if it may seem otherwise for a while.

So, for your own peace of mind go there for his birthday and find out what the problem is. Even if he doesn't come to the airport you can take a cab to his place, so I woudn't worry about that. But let him know that you are going.

I don't know if that counts in any way but my personal opinion is that he is no longer interested in you and he doesn't know how to tell you or he is screwing with your mind. But when it comes to such a thing you need to be sure...So find out...

Good luck!

Update
Yesterday I send him an sms. In it I says "hi, I havn't hear from you for sometime,. I hope you are well. How's the weather like there? I'm not sure when you are flying home, so have a good flight home. Take care"

it is this short and I didn't say anything emotional. He didn't reply me at all. And I catch a pattern. When he's awake (i know the country timing), he will switch off his mobile, and when he's sleeping, he will turn on his mobile(to silent mode i'm very 100% sure). This has been the pattern for like days. What kind of employee does that on business trip? I can't even turn off my phone when i'm overseas trip.
Isn't it obvious that he's screening his calls from voicemails?
There is a 1% possibility that his company doesn't allow him to use the phone or he thinks that receiving calls is going to be very expensive. But since its a company trip, and he does travel intensely, there shouldn't be any reason that a big company will stingy on phone expenses.
I don't know whether this pattern is purposely created to avoid me or not. But I feel that if he has to do this at the expense of his work, his company, he's not a good employee....
Unless he's not on a business trip at all................

Well, even if he has problems as such, he would have found a way to call you..It is not that difficult, don't you think?
