mortensorchid Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Weeks ago, this man contacted me through Facebook. We exchanged a few IMs and whatnot, then he said he wanted to meet me. I said ok, he said he works nights and we had arranged to meet for dinner last Sunday evening. During the day on Sunday, I was over at my theater company doing set build and we did so much we were all exhausted by the end. I got my cell out of my coat pocket and he had sent texts saying that he was called into work that night and had to cancel on me. I texted back saying that I understood and I was tired myself. He texted back that he was sorry and that he would arrange for another get together soon. We had one IM through Facebook last week, he made no mention of rescheduling. Should I just forget about it? If he were bent on a meet up he would have mentioned it surely by now, wouldn't he? Should I hint again at it? I'm tempted just to let it slide and move on.
Toddbt12y1 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Maybe he is waiting for the right time; for when he knows for sure he will be off. I wouldn't wait too much longer though; try to maybe hint lightly at him about another date setup.
ScienceGal Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Where he was the one that couldn't make it, he should make an attempt to reschedule (and he even said he would). I would let it slide and move on.
Archgirl Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 If he is interested he would rearrange and there would be no reason for the reduction in contact. I don't think he's gonna arrange to see you in a hurry. 1
ScienceGal Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 You can give a hint though, what do you have to lose? Maybe say, "I'm trying to plan my week. Are you wanting to reschedule this week?" If he doesn't provide a good answer, definitely move on.
gaius Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Forget about it. He disrespected you by canceling and didn't make up for it. Shouldn't have to subtlety nag a guy into respecting you.
Author mortensorchid Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 Yes, I think that it's been nearly two weeks now, he could take the time out to let me know of his schedule or if and when. Being that we had had a conversation once since then and he has not made a move towards a reschedule, I'm just going to move on.
