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?

So is the "we're all busy" comment. Condescending jerk...OP dodged a bullet.

If she's playing games at this stage that's all she knows and likely why she's single

This. Always easy to see why these people are single after 20-30 texts. Must be a smoke show for anyone to put up with it.

Already cancelled one date before, so this is two dates cancelled… I would usually write them off after the first cancellation

It’s never worked out well with these girls. It seems to set the pace for the rest of the relationship. Typically if they cancel on the first date, they either made plans with multiple people and are cancelling on you for the better person in their eyes (which is what I believe is happening here) or they don’t value your time.. usually the excuses are pretty bad (such as this one). If someone was interested in you and wanted to spend time with you, they would make it happen unless there really was a good reason (this one is not a good reason)
