Pizzaman81 Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Yay, today I got flaked on on the first lunch date. I was waiting and waiting... called and called... didn't show up. Then she texted me saying "Let's do another time, I didn't realize we are still on because i didn't hear from you on the initial day" I texted her back, i called you 2 days ago and we confirmed again. Lamo, i guess she saved me on the lunch bill.
Art_Critic Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Please don't go back out with her again.. There is nothing worse than someone who shows such a lack of respect as to not show..no matter the reason there isn't a proper excuse to not show up and not take calls and then text.. She has very poor character...
USMCHokie Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Hmmm, this is lame. I hope there is no second try...
BG1985 Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 I suppose the fact that he's sarcastically celebrating his first flake on a lunch date shows that he isn't interested in taking this further.
St. Nick Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 This is your first? What took you so long? San Francisco must have less flaky women than the midwest. Maybe I should relocate.
Art_Critic Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 I suppose the fact that he's sarcastically celebrating his first flake on a lunch date shows that he isn't interested in taking this further. He did text her back and not mention getting back together but he also didn't tell her to buzz off either... He could go either way on the replay...
Author Pizzaman81 Posted February 8, 2010 Author Posted February 8, 2010 So here's the update. Thanks for all the replies. Here is what happened. 5 hours later, she texted me.. "How is your day going?" I replied: "Are you serious?" Her: "Look I am really sorry! We didn't talk about that initial set up and I thought we were no longer on, there must be some misunderstanding" Me: "I was just disappointed that you didn't call or anything. PLus, I didn't realize this sort of thing should have misunderstandings... we made the plan, I never called to change the plan, so I assumed we are still on..." *she then tries to call me* I didn't pick up Her: "Hey I tried calling you! I'm really sorry! Are you free tonight? My treat! let's get together for dinner" Me: "No I'm busy" Her: "How about this week? We can do something quick!" Me: "I'm busy sorry" Her: "Alright" So she was extremely apologetic, and really wanted to get back together. But how she ignored my phone calls and texts while I was waiting for her at the restaurant... and then her just message me back "oh let's do this another time, I got confused I thought we weren't on anymore.." was totally disrespectful. I am moving on.
counterman Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Too right in saying you will move on. It was just really disrespectful.

I am moving on. Seriously, will you pretty please pick up the phone? I actually did not "ignore" you calls/texts- I could not GET TO my phone (see the difference?), as I was restrained in a straight jacket! Hi pizzaman! Sorry, I could not resist...lol....the woman is a no go...
Barky Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 I'm actually impressed that the OP didn't take her up on her offer. Probably 95% of dudes would have said, "well.. all right."

boogieboy Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 I'm actually impressed that the OP didn't take her up on her offer. Probably 95% of dudes would have said, "well.. all right." She is deplorable. Actually I would have let her dictate the time and the place to make it up to me, and then I would have stood her up, and ignore her calls.
USMCHokie Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 She is deplorable. Actually I would have let her dictate the time and the place to make it up to me, and then I would have stood her up, and ignore her calls. Just because she's a common douche doesn't make it necessary for you to be one too...
CaliGuy Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 She is deplorable. Actually I would have let her dictate the time and the place to make it up to me, and then I would have stood her up, and ignore her calls. Then how do that make one a better person? Pizzaman handled it correctly. Getting revenge on her isn't the right thing to do. Just saying "No thanks, I'm busy" is. It shows that you won't be taken for granted and that you don't need to resort to "revenge". You're confident enough in yourself that you can move on to the next candidate and that she doesn't deserve your time.
boogieboy Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Just because she's a common douche doesn't make it necessary for you to be one too... No but it feels great to be a common douche once in a while..when you get the chance. Put a common douche in their place. Then how do that make one a better person? Pizzaman handled it correctly. Getting revenge on her isn't the right thing to do. Just saying "No thanks, I'm busy" is. It shows that you won't be taken for granted and that you don't need to resort to "revenge". You're confident enough in yourself that you can move on to the next candidate and that she doesn't deserve your time. She wouldnt get my time, I wouldnt be going. But letting her feel the burn of getting stood up, sometimes teaches people. Doesnt make me a better person, but like I said, revenge tastes sweet sometimes.
Crazy Magnet Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 This girl obviously doesn't know what she's missing! How lame of her to try to reschedule. I love how you handled the situation!
New_Life08 Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 What a lack of consideration!! You can do much better friend!
Author Pizzaman81 Posted February 8, 2010 Author Posted February 8, 2010 This girl obviously doesn't know what she's missing! How lame of her to try to reschedule. I love how you handled the situation! Aww, thanks! Ya I'm usually pretty hard on things like this when it's at the initial stage, like first date, no matter how attractive they are. I figure usually people show their best on first dates, and if this trying then there might be more issues later. There's plenty of monkeys in the barrel! Wait was that the correct metaphor?
alphamale Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 There's plenty of monkeys in the barrel! Wait was that the correct metaphor? no, its "theres plenty of fish in the sea"

Isn't that the truth! If she's this tragic now, what will she be like in a year!!! "Oh sorry honey, I flew to Cancun with this body builder for the week and forgot to tell you...." lol I bet she's kicking herself at this very moment!!
Author Pizzaman81 Posted February 8, 2010 Author Posted February 8, 2010 Hi pizzaman! Hi TAMI!! Long time no see! Not that I would know you've been gone for awhile.. not that I check... you know...
