Here are my thoughts -- there are a few options here. He is

(1) stupid and thoughtless and has no idea how to treat a woman he is dating;

(2) seeing someone else and only calls your friend when things with the other person aren't going well; or

(3) making a booty call.

I think that ONE big screw up in the early days of a potential relationship can be excused -- I don't think your friend was wrong to see him again after he blew her off that ONE weekend, as long as she made very clear to him that while she could get over it, such behavior would NOT be tolerated in the future. However, if he's blowing her off for an entire month, after they haven't been seeing each other for long, how is he going to behave later, if things progress? Not well, I'm afraid. The early days of getting to know someone are, in my experience, when people are usually on their best behavior to make a good impression. If this is his best behavior, she should run for the hills, unless of course *she* is just looking for a booty call. If she's looking for something more than that, I think she'd be better served to look elsewhere. This guy doesn't have it together.
