How to stop being stood up.

I’m gay and the guy other guy is not out and is slightly paranoid about people knowing.

He asked me for my number and txts me, calls me, IM’s me, when I’m where he is he’ll leave his friends and spend time with me.
But when it comes to meeting up he keeps saying yes, no, yes. I want to make it work but he’s scared people may see us. His parents are Muslim and are homophobic.
