What could she have done better about the situation?
Really ? The considerate thing to do is REPLY , a simple " thank you for taking time to meet me but I'm sorry to say I don't think we are a good match. good luck in your search " or anything but total silence is just rude and show the true colors of a person

That is so true. Can you imagine if someone were rude and said, "I really cannot stand you!!!"? That wouldn't be great for self-esteem.

Just saying "it's nice to meet you" doesn't mean anything, it's a standard pleasantry. Trying to read things into what your date is saying or doing is not good, IMO.

We only know half the story. Obviously something was done to weird this woman out, as she hastily took a cab back home.

What advice would you give your daughter? If you are creeped out it is best just to walk away.

I think she took the cab because it was getting later and she didnt know how much longer she had to wait for the next bus


I don't recall doing anything creepy, I basically just walked her to the bus stopped and we chatted until it came.

Glad you asked ! I have daughters and I tell them to be respectful, have good manners , be nice and treat people the way you would like to be treated. My daughters have the guts to tell guys when its not going to work out.

We aren't talking about a stranger on the street here. They went on a first date to meet. He deserves more respect than to be totally ignored.

Ok I just looked at a youtube video and I think I may have an idea of what I did to possibly turn her off


During our date a homeless guy walked up to our table and I just kind of looked at him and never said anything. she was the only one who responded to him


Just speculation
