One should be looking for behaviors they like and don't like. That's the fricken point of dating.

Sounds like she hadn't called him back after the message she'd sent him apologizing.
But he never replied to that message soooo, no surprises she hasn't.

OP goes out on date. Agrees to go to a second location with the woman. Gets drunk and doesn't show up. Sends an apology text but then never offers a make up date. Peeks at her IG stories from time to time.

If the OP thinks he could perhaps see himself making a "dumb mistake" where he stands up a woman he's very attracted to and never bothers to offer a second date, then he should reach out. If he believes these hypothetical actions on his part demonstrate disinterest, then he shouldn't.

Women are no different from men when they want something. They don't have to be decoded.
To @Three Wolves In Snow too:


Decent chance this would happen on 2nd date sure. Maybe woman doesn't want to call because guy didn't respond to apology. Guy seems torn between making contact and not. Guy has to ultimately decide. There seems to be some interest. I say go for it, but make it more on his terms.

Like pick a location closer to him, do something not involving a bar. Any response that isn't a definite "yes", move on. Or pick something where you'd be there regardless of if she shows up or not.

Definitely "go dutch" or let her pay so that you aren't wasting your money so much.

If there wasn't potential interest, I don't think OP was be posting.

Her car was recently broken into (she drives a Kia which are highly desired by thieves). Anyway, I arrive at the piano bar 20 minutes later. I sit there thinking she would arrive a few minutes after me. Fifteen minutes goes by and I attempt to call her...no answer. So I send a text saying "I'm here"...

She then texts me "I had a great night. Thank you. ☺️"...which confuses me so I respond "Huh? Are we not meeting at the piano bar? Did I say or do something wrong?"....no response at all and I basically got stood up on the second half of the date.

So I awaken to this message from her...

"Sh*t, sorry about last night. You didn't do anything wrong. I was a little tipsy and got confused. Then once I got home I immediately passed out."

She had two alcoholic drinks and I had a Sprite so I get it, but I don't know about this. I did really enjoy her though. Should I give her another chance?
Hi bro! I think it should be only your decision because no one doesn't know what is good for you. If you feel that you want to see her in your bed, do it! Meanwhile, in my opinion, you have to forget her and find another girl. There are about 4 billion women on this planet!

Whether you should give her another chance or not should be up to you. But just want to say that you should be careful around such type of easily forgetful women that easily get confused. Her actions didn't show she had a great time with you, so you should relate with her cautiously should you feel like giving her another chance

"Potential interest"? What gives you that idea? Because they went out for drinks for 2 hours and she laughed? That doesn't mean anything.

Women are no different from men when they really like someone. They will call. They will text. They will ask you out. They will arrange a time and place to meet. They will invite you out with their friends. They will coincidentally be "in the neighborhood." Later, and "later" in this case could be anywhere between the second date and engagement, they will ask you to meet Aunt Trudy and Uncle James, her 3rd Grade teacher Mrs. Trufflebutter, her therapist, etc. It is painfully obvious when a woman is into you. If you have to wonder, then you have your answer.

Sure, OP could reach out to this woman, but he should start learning the discipline of moving on.
