isisisweeping Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 How do you decide when to cancel or go on if you are sick? What if you're feeling better but are probably contagious? Do you tell them and let them decide? I feel bad cancelling, especially since I have very limited time as is and I'm cognizant that it could seem like I'm not interested when that's not the case. However, I don't feel much better about getting people sick.
HappyLove Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 If you're truly sick cancel. That's horrible to get your date sick. Just cancel with a follow up date attached, so they see you're being honest. The LAST thing I'd want to do is go on a date with someone whose ill. 1
Author isisisweeping Posted March 5, 2014 Author Posted March 5, 2014 If you're truly sick cancel.. Feeling better. Still in contagion window.
J21 Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Just apologize and say you're not feeling well; just remember you have to suggest a specific alternate day. Don't be like "let's reschedule" and leave it opened, be like "let's reschedule for XXX". That way it won't come off as if you're avoiding them or giving them an excuse.

My planned date would be quite a bit aways at this juncture. Very booked right now. I went ahead and put it honestly up to him. He said he wanted to see me anyways and isn't worried about it.
MrMeh Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 If she honestly fine going out I wouldn't care if I got sick to tell you the truth. I know it would be worth it.

However, I don't feel much better about getting people sick. Ask the other person how they feel about it. Explain exactly how you feel and that you don't think you are contagious. The best relationships involve open and honest communication. I would say cancel and make sure to apologize and set up a new date time immediately. That way they know you are not blowing them off or that you changed your mind.

Well people use the sick excuse all the time when they are not interested because it's a easy way out I wouldn't believe it if someone told me that

Author isisisweeping Posted March 5, 2014 Author Posted March 5, 2014 Booked?? That many dates huh?? Not dates. Just a busy life. Have an out of town friend coming in soon too
Gaeta Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 If you are feeling well and it's just a matter of being contagious then let your date decide if they prefer rescheduling or they're ok with the risk. I remember dating this guy and at some point he cancelled because he had a little congestion and he was afraid of giving it to me, I got so offended, I told him I am old enough to decide what I want and don't want to be expose to. I don't care about this stuff, if I get a cold then I'll build antibodies and be immune for the rest of winder, nothing more to it
