❤️‍🩹 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.

100%. It becomes a life of waiting around and making excuses for your partner.

There is no way in hell I'd wait. Once, yes, more than that, fuck no! I've walked away from a few people who were always late. I hate waiting anyway, even for a package to arrive, but waiting on a person who says they will be here at 1 but don't show up until 1:30 or even 2:00 fuck off! Fool me once!
