In another thread I mentioned I got flaked on for a 2nd date by this woman. I had to text her the evening of the date to find out she was flaking and even then she was not at all apologetic or clear.

Three days later she sent a text with an apology. I replied saying "Thank you. No worries., etc."

She called me that night. We talked for 5 or 10 minutes. I made no mention of her flaking on the date. I also did NOT ask her out again and she did not suggest we get together either. So I left it at that.

She called me last night but left no message. I did not return her call.

So today she sent me a text saying, "How about we go out next weekend to such and such place."

I replied with, "Sure, let's go. I believe in 2nd chances but not 3rd chances. LOL."

She replied with, "Call me when you can. You should be flattered that I am asking you out. Uugghh."

Also, please note that she technically flaked on our first date. But I gave her a 2nd chance. Our first date went fine. No drama. There was some chemistry, etc. Finally, please note that in my courting of this gal she has been quick to talk about all the other guys chasing her including doctors, etc.

Perhaps I should not have made the remark about 2nd chances? I was trying to inject some humor while also letting her know I only have so much patience.

Should I run as far away as possible now or make an attempt at reparing the damage?

"Hit the bricks, honey."

That would be my next text.

She seems to be one of those kind of women that think of men as buses... "There will be another in a few minutes....."

She ditched you because she's banging other guys. Stop courting. This isn't 1975. Get her into bed on your next date or she'll be gone for good.

She doesn't sound like a drama queen. She just sounds like an annoying flake. Either way - if you don't like her - there is no reason to see her again.

how 'bout: "On second thought, I'm not going to do you any favors. Lose my #."

I know I'll never tolerate flakiness again, but this text you sent her is really childish.

If you like the girl to try it again, why the hell would you send a reply like that? That isn't a well thought-out message.

And yeah, she SHOULD feel bad for sending you another text asking you out. Flaking out or not, I'd have told you to go jump off a cliff for being rude like that.

I have no doubt she is courting other guys and loving the attention. But she does not appear to be the type to sleep around much. She is not a party girl. Of course, I could be wrong....but that is my impression.

Prince, to add a different perspective: I didn't read his text that way at all. I think I would have laughed and been relieved at the bluntness of the jab.

Thank you. I can take criticism and can see how my comment was not called for.
