Would you just not go? Why do men do this?
Obviously he doesnt care that much, right? |

Doesn't care. Move on.
Plan something with friends but do go out. |

| I would never talk to this person again. That's such a waist of your time. |

Yeah it's weird. He was sooooooooo attentive texting me nonstop the other day when we made plans. Then the conversation fell off a day ago and no messages today and it's almost 4pm. I guess I'll probably just stay in with wine and vanderpump rules |

| That happened to me and the guy had died, for real. |

Yikes! OP, yeah, I would move on. Hope you had a good night! |

What happened and how did you find out? |

Maybe dating customs are different in the country you're posting from. |

| I would not waste my time. |

| Do you know the place and time? I only mentioned because you are asking us if you should just not go, as if you have the option of going. |

We old people who dated back before texting was Every. Single. Day. All. Day. can remember when we weren't expecting constant contact. The fact this guy was texting a lot then went silent may be more about your texting expectations than about his intentions re: this date. Not super polite of him, I agree, but you're very ready to ditch him with no idea of any context. I'd be wondering if something work-related or personal came up and then I would contact him rather than waiting for him to contact me, because if I'd said yes to a date, he must be at least somewhat of interest to me. And I'd give the benefit of the doubt to someone new, the first time. I would not be crowdsourcing "should I just dump this date" based on no information from him about WHY he hasn't been in touch. |

Did he give you a day, time, and place? Then show up, he will be there.
I find women who need constant hand-holding about date plans tend to suffer from OCD. |

Haha yeah I also had this once and the guy had been in an awful car accident and was so drugged up in the hospital for a couple days that he wasn’t on his phone or with it enough to text.
It’s not clear what info are you waiting for. Was it just a vague “want to go out weds night?” And now you’re not sure of actual plan? Is this a first date? Do you guys live close by so it’s reasonable to think you might decide on a spot in the evening? If you’ve suggested something like “how about 7:00 at xyz” and he doesn’t respond for hours and hours then yeah I’d be annoyed bc that’s an easy “sounds good” response from him |

If this guy got in a car accident, was out of commission and missed a date with this poster, he got lucky.
