He's either not that interested, playing games to toy with you, or its true and he's a flake who can't charge a phone enough to send a text....
take your pick
You should probably not date him anymore since you've stated you want more than something casual, and he specifically stated he doesn't.
How's that going to work out? Probably with you crying.
Find someone awesomer (yes that's a word) and move on.
I'Anon,as I read this, I just felt like he doesn't sound like such a deal. He has a lame excuse for not calling you to say he couldn't make it. So many sexy guys out there, maybe you should forget about being confused or stumped. He sounds like a dutiful Dad, and does not have room for other people.
Sometimes guys get could feet after first date. They focus and re-focus the evening. Sorry all first dates aren't what the poets write about and both parties count the minutes till the next dreamy night.
He's probably a trans bi poly amorous BDSM cuckolder and was just looking for some strong rejection to fuel a webcam masturbation orgy with the latex Pokemon furry he's been chatting with.
If I was in his position (and I have been) where my phone died, I'd run home as soon as I'm off work and once it's up to 4% I'd text/call. Waiting until the morning to text is a huge red flag.. for whatever reason I sense he's not interested in further dates.
Maybe he's testing you-- If he really wants things to be casual.
He's looking for someone that will have that happen to them and say 'Okay, no problem' and really mean it, so he's getting the test out of the way from the start.
Not responding to him, being trite, or any other signs that show you're really upset, are basically deal-breakers to him.
Wait a second, I spent all of Friday night and Saturday morning waiting for you to text or call so we could watch some NCAA. I thought we had plans, man! Next thing I'll hear is that your phone died after an epic Shazaam session.
But I know what's really going on, you and last week's IAnon got together didn't you. DIDN'T YOU!!!
I propose a change in standard operating procedure on all future lonely hearts type posts:
In the future, come to us BEFORE it all falls apart. Tell us all the stuff about date #1 and any details about the guy while you think it's going well. Then we can point out the obvious red flags and you can manage your expectations accordingly.
Wao, you guys aren't giving any clues to the poor reader...
Single Dad? Phone discharged after using Pandora? Those are indicators of a boring whatever, maybe there's somebody else who seems more fun who wants to go out with you.
He found someone else to bang that night and was hoping he could put you on ice for a later date/bang by pretending that his phone died.....so, take that for what it is and ask if you're ok with that or not. I can promise you this: you're only a piece of ass in this dude's mind. you ok with this? If "yes" then game on!
My guess is he either had something lined up with another woman before your planned meeting or he went out with friends hoping to get some. You were the back up plan. He either met someone or was having a good time and didn't feel like dealing with you. Sorry, but that's most likely what happened.

This is a callback to last week.
i think your too good for him.
Brave, stupid, or both?
If he's worth it answer his text say you were disappointed he didn't show act kinda blasé' end the message with a "the ball's in your court" but you might be missing something good wink and a nod. If he bites invite him over have an intimate evening he'll never forget and see what develops.
Hey I'm pretty good at this.
