It appears that he needed a friends help with some problem that he is currently experiencing.

I kinda think it's just a little intense on your part, not necessarily bitchy. He sounds like he's being breezy, a little casual but yet letting you know he might be around. IMHO a casual response like 'cool, let me know if it happens for you and I'll catch up with you if I'm free' might be more in line with the tone of his mail.
I've had a quick look at some of your history with this guy and he seems to withdraw and not go into things when they get a bit intense. That sort of frustrates you then and leads to more intensity, which I think he's picking up on. Yet he seems interested in meeting.
Of course this is nothing to do with iChing, I'm just giving an opinion so feel free to disregard, I know nothing about anything at the moment it seems, so I'm not sure I'd take advice from me

He responded:
"If we both have time and you don't mind me in migrant farm worker mode. Scruffy.
Going to be in [town] at 7, God willing. Talking about some business for a little while, then have to hightail back to check on dog. In btwixt is a possibility depending on where you are. P"

Actually, I think it has everything to do with the readings. I think you're spot on.
Meaning what, Meng?
We had further exchanges since:
Him: If we both have time and you don't mind me in migrant farm worker mode. Scruffy. Going to be in [town] at 7, God willing. Talking about some business for a little while, then have to hightail back to check on dog. In btwixt is a possibility depending on where you are. p
Sounds pretty harried and uncertain. I'll pass. L.
Well, we wouldn't want to stress you out. p
I meant too harried for YOU given what you already have scheduled. But come to think of it... maybe I'll get a massage after I go rollerblading tonight. L.
Pity. My strong suit. P
Yeah... you probably have those giant soft Leo lion paws, huh? Puuuuurrrrrr Well.. maybe we can shoot for another time. Do you rollerblade BTW? L.
I sent my last response yesterday afternoon and he still hasn't responded. :-(

Thanks for the vote of confidence Meng, was nice to have a bit of acknowledgement

While not as proficient as I could be with i ching, I do know a bit about dating.
His casual offer to meet should have been taken as a yes. You did not come off bitchy or intense, it's a simple question.
However by passing you gave up a good opportunity. Yes he might be a tad haggard but his approach was one of those beautifully aloof approaches of 'I'll be here if you want to join me, feel free.' This is a first date situation, you'll want to keep your investment of time and money low. Hence when I go out with someone for the first time, it's either lunch or something lame like running errands. This offers the ability to get to see a person 'in action.' By grouping some necessities with some fun (meeting you) he eliminates the ever proverbial two birds with one stone. If things go well, he'll ask you out to something more intimate, dinner, movie, his place, your place, etc. If they don't..well he just got something done he needed to and if nothing else made a cool friend. On your side you get to spend some time with him and see how he is in public and if you're impressed you can ask for another date, again more intimate, or if it sucks, it sucks and you're out nothing but your time.
