I don't either.

You didn't say if you had casually mentioned the whole movie thing and what his response was, but this is sort of the mountain out of the mole hill thing to me.

Ok, you had the movie. Told him you had the movie. So the opportunity was there. He's a guy, he may have forgotten. Not wanted to watch it at any particular time. It doesn't appear that this movie watching was as important to him as it was to you.

Maybe someone who was in the apartment that evening brought the movie over. How can he say no, I can't watch that, I have to watch it with Mr. X? The whole situation may have been spontaneous and in no way connected to you. I would venture to guess nothing about the situation had anything to do with you.

Maybe you were a little overbearing reminding him all the time that you had the movie. Maybe he thinks your motivation is different than it is, ie: maybe he thinks you're attracted to him or he thinks your behavior is a little creepy.

It could have been anything. Taking stuff like this personally will make you crazy. You can't overthink it.

As far as the other thing about people not showing up you can look at it two ways. One is have fun with the 2 people who did show up and don't worry why no one else did, or two examine what is happening with you and your home. As someone else mentioned, maybe there are bad smells, maybe the decor is creepy, maybe you have bad breath and it's time to visit a dentist, maybe you make offensive jokes or maybe it's nothing. They just didn't show up. 2 people did, so make the most of the evening. Apparently those 2 people want to hang out with you.

Quality not quantity.
