Is 'Never Married' a Clue?

It's been a few weeks since my last post but not much has changed.
The latest is one guy who has lost interest before we've even met -- so it's getting worse.  At least in prior cases, we had a meeting.

My man of the day is someone who started out very promising.  Complimented my smile, replied pretty quickly to a couple of emails, and seemed to want to meet.  Then on an IM chat he got very, um, racy and graphic.  It was kind of appealing but surprising because well, I'm usually in some sort of a committed relationship with someone before we hit that stage.  Then the double entendre emails "It was hard this morning"...then referring to going back to work on a Monday.  That was one of the playful ones.  The rest were pretty graphic.  He claimed it was just who he is and that play is important to him in a relationship.  That's fine with me -- I'm just used to at least having met in person once before going there.

My first clue this wasn't really going anywhere -- I offered to talk on the phone until such time as we could connect in person.  (I was traveling on business quite a bit for a couple of weeks).  His response?  He sent a photo of lady undies saying these are the kind I like.  I played along thinking, keep an open mind, girl, and just go with it. 

It seemed like we'd finally meet in person, but 15 minutes past our appointed time the email comes through, "Stuck in traffic, can't make it really sorrry going home."  Sigh.  Okay no big deal -- it happens.  I replied okay, talk later, thinking he would connect at some point that evening to rebook.  That was Wednesday, this is Saturday.  Nada.  He had time to go online to the dating site though. 

I get it -- he lost interest.  Would it have been so difficult to just say, "Ya know, I don't think we're a match"? especially after all the other breathtakingly frank things he said in email and on one IM chat.  Now, nothing.  Is there a reason he's 'never been married'?
I am still clueless about this whole process.   
Someone enlighten me....please.
