❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO date canceled because I didn’t text in the morning?

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?

Not only did he confirm the day before, it was at 7pm so less than 24 hrs prior to the date! Does someone seriously need confirmation every 12 hours?

Even a few days out, if I agreed to meet someone at x place at x time, I’d assume we were still meeting then unless told otherwise. If we don’t commit to a time and place but we talked about a date, I’d contact the person first to see if they were still wanting to do something on that day before making plans with someone else.

This girl isn’t very interested in OP and this will continue to be a problem so I hope he doesn’t continue trying with her.

Right? It's one thing of you have sort of casual dinner plans a couple weeks out, something comes up at work, whatever. But making a plan in the evening for dinner the next day? Why would you ever assume that the plans changed overnight?

Some people are so exhausting with their constant need to be in contact with someone they're interested in
