mirage12 Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Last night I got flaked on last minute for a first date and would love to hear everyone's thoughts. A few weeks ago I went to a concert with two friends. Afterward, we met up at a restaurant with one of my friend's brothers, his gf and her friend. The friend was really cute and I tried flirting with her all night. My friends were calling me out on it and at the end of the night, my friend told his brother I was into the girl. I never heard anything more so figured it was done. Fast forward to last weekend and this girl is at an all girls brunch with my friebd's brkther's gf. Somehow they start to talk about me and the girl says she thinks I'm cute/she's interested, etc etc. This gets passed back and forth to my friend and eventually girl sends her number down the line to me. We text back and forth on Monday and make a plan to go out Friday (last night). On Thursday night I call her and we talk for a bit and confirm the plan, but she has what sounds like a demanding job (usually doesn't get off til 8 each night). We agreed that she would text me when she was out of work on Friday so that we could time meeting up depending on that. As I'm driving to the area where we were planning to meet onFriday I get a call from her, saying she's sorry but she got put on a project last minute and has to. Work late. She asks to reschedule and we talk a little about maybe one night during the week next week but we don't make any definite plans and just leave it at that. I'm still unsure if the work excuse was legit or if she just flaked. Even if the work was legit, I couldn't help feeling kind of annoyed. I've had problems with flakey girls before and I didn't like it. As of now I'm thinking of not reaching out to her again and letting her do it (assuming she even wants to), because she cancelled. Anyone have thoughts?
kjackson1 Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 I'd wait for her to contact you, she did attempt to reschedule so she does still seem interested
Gaeta Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 She did offer to reschedule so no, I would not consider this a last minute flake. Also when she offered to rescheduled it was your job to jump all over it and book it right there for another day and time !!
FitChick Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Find out which evening she isn't working and schedule a date then. That way she can't use the excuse of having to work late. Of course you realize that anything you two say or do will be duly reported amongst your mutual friends. 2
Tina747 Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Based on what you have said so far, I would give her another chance... it probably "really" was work related. Most people put there lively hood first and she may have really had to work overtime. I say give her one more chance.. it wouldn't hurt.... it sounds like she does like you.
Larry56 Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Maybe just wait a few days till she gets in contact with you. If she actually made the effort to call she probably *did* have something come up at work. If she sends you a text sometime, you'll know she's interested.
