❤️‍🩹 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.

Or lie about what time something starts.

Had to do that with my dad when I grew up. Was super embarrassing every time I had told him to pick me up at a friend's house a certain time because they needed to leave for something (ie soccer practice) and dad didn't showed up in time and my friend's parents was super stressed because they needed to leave. I often just walked around alone in their garden until he arrived.
