OP here, thanks for the replies- I just wanted to make sure I wasn't being too sensitive or unfair about it. You guys nailed it really because I have been thinking to myself that if he had called me to genuinely apologize it would have made me feel better and more inclined to give him another chance... |
When did this change to include men too? This should be good. |
Actually, it was always old for men but somehow it used to only apply to women. |
That's asinine - late 30's isn't old for men or women. But late 30's is definitely old enough to know better, and too old for this s**t. |
Wouldn't give him the satisfaction of a response but if you feel compelled, "we had a date this weekend?" would be good. |
Actually thats really good |
Run run run away and thank your lucky stars that you got out early. One of my best friends married a total tool who treats her like a stray cat. Every now and then he throws out a bowl of milk and scratches behind her ear, but for the most part he ignores her and is completely thoughtless.
They started dating when they were long distance (old friends, reconnected after a few years) , and the first time she flew to the same city to visit him he was supposed to pick her up at the airport. Long story short, he failed to show. She called him from the baggage claim to find out what was up, and he said he forgot. Showed up about an hour later - said he had to shower first. |
Oh please. I really hope you ignored his text. How terrible |
Texsting is fine with me but the text should have come the instant he woke up and realized what he had done...if there was going to by any chance of forgiveness. Texting the next day...nope. |
None of this matters. Shes attracted to him and thats all that matters. If he wants to go out again she will. |
She shouldn't go out with a douche bag that treats her badly even if she is attracted to him. |
There are other fish in the sea, OP; seek them out. |
I don't believe for one minute he fell asleep. Sorry, OP. Something "better' came along, and he blew you off and offered a ridiculous excuse. You dodged a bullet, completely classless and immature. Think of it as your lucky day to avoid spending an evening with this guy |
I'd be inclined to believe that he was with another woman and just figured he'd deal with you the next day.
However, I did this sort of thing to my now husband on our third date. I was in a drama-filled phase of my life but I finally got it together after he sent me a heartfelt but blunt email about being disappointed. Maybe it's different because you're the female, but I don't know. |
He's single at his age for a reason. |
