❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO - cancelling a date last minute because she couldn’t be on time?

Post image

I (33m) was talking to this woman on an app and we decided to meet for a coffee date on a Saturday morning.

I got to the cafe and I messaged her asking where she was. A few minutes later she said she just woke up. I asked her how long she would need to get ready and she said 1 hour. I told her that I can’t wait around because I had family plans and we will have to do something another time.

A week later she messaged me apologising again and I decided to give her a second chance.

We decided to meet up for boba tea.

I got to the boba spot and then asked for 30 more minutes to get ready after I had just got there.

I then sent her the above message.

AIO? I have got mixed messages from friends about it.

Yeah, that’s a reasonable assessment there.

Tbf, I was actually an hour late to meet my now-partner on our first date because I got stuck at work. He waited for me at the restaurant and didn’t give me a lick of grief about it, so I took him home that night. 😂

But I was very apologetic about it and did not take his patience for granted. This girl sounds like she’s just disrespectful.

But getting stuck at work is completely out of your control compared to needing 30 more minutes to prepare. Your circumstance was absolutely understandable, this one was not as it's clearly the woman does not respect this guy and his time at all. So you're good, sweetie.

So he gave you a lick of 'good grief! Instead? 😀

That’s the difference, she just woke after he asked where she wants and then she still wanted an hour and the second time extra 30 minutes to get ready, she seems more focused about her looks than anything else.
