Too much overthinking.
If she flakes, then odds are she would have flaked even if you didn't accidentally meet before the date.

Plus, it's only awkward if you make it awkward. Just go out and do your thing without worrying about coincidences and happenstances.

Your job is to be ready (and on time) on the day and time you planned the date. That's all.

Well, I think I did play to cool...on the outside anyway.

Quality people understand that we all have lives where they are not at the center. You will be ok, if she is a quality person.

No, I don't think so. If she flakes, I agree that she would have flaked without the random, unplanned interaction. Female flaking is high so you've always got to be looking for new prospects until things are solidified in a relationship.

Update: This morning we clarified the details for our first date which was to be this evening (Wednesday). Time and place were set. So everything looked like game on. Two hours before the date she texted me to say, "Hi. I am sorry but I can't see you tonight because I have an emergency. I am really sorry but I hope we can get together on another day. How would Sunday work for you?"

I guess emergencies do happen but I have my doubts. Look forward to being proven wrong. She gets one more shot and that is it.

You see now why you shouldn't have even sweated about seeing each other randomly before your date? Sure emergencies happen, so without proof you must give her the benefit of the doubt, but it sounds fishy to me.

I had a girl flake on me last week by telling me she couldn't see me because she got too drunk at her company party the night before and wanted to go home early to rest. Lol. Let's see what your potential date gives as the emergency.

So weird...

I seriously HATE flakes. WHY would she go to all the trouble of planning with you and THEN have an "emergency"???

I am dubious also, but I look forward to hearing what the emergency was.

What happens to the other one, the one you posted a thread previously, did I miss something?

You might be referring to the "promotional model" I met at an event. She flaked on what was to be our third date. That one is history but thanks for asking.

At least she tried to reschedule the date, but I really hate when people flake the day of the date. I would give her another chance if I was really interested though. I mean, you both love Latin dance clubs so you have that in common.
