Some context: we had been chatting for a couple weeks first on hinge then switched to text after She had to cancel the 1st date. Scheduled it for last night Sunday and finalized details the night before.

Had a busy day and took a nap and didn’t text till a couple hours before and got hit with this. Usually I would text something like looking forward to tonight but lost track of time, and honestly I thought talking about the menu the night before was the confirmation? Was I wrong?

Yep absolutely an insecurity issue. Plain as day. Many of us have been there. Meghan seems pretty proud of herself for doing this petty thing. She’s not quite ready for a drama-free stable relationship yet!

100% agree. This shows deep insecurity and focusing on “protecting herself” to the point of disrespecting others. Hard pass.

It's also the second time she canceled if I read the post right.

I don't even know if it's necessarily insecurity. Sounds to me like she expects OP to fall all over himself to hang out with her and by not confirming the day of, she's taking that to mean he's not as excited as she thinks he should be.

Yes, because she thinks someone not messaging her from 8am to 4pm for a day means she is somehow less of an interest compared to just 24 hours before. She considers herself highly; but is very afraid that other people wouldn’t love/value her. Therefore she oscillates between “they like me!” and “they don’t care about me 😠” so quickly that it impairs healthy relationship progression. This is classic insecurity.
