I'd go, mostly because I'd always wonder if I didn't. If she doesn't show up, lesson learned but at least you upheld your end of the plan and you can cut bait and continue to fish.

Here's some novelty for you - call her to confirm before going! High tech stuff sometimes goes in a big black hole!

Well, she has been online, and no reply, so I know she hasn't been under a rock.

Looks like I got stood up.

OK. I'll spell it out for you - a text, e-mail, or any other sort of communication sometimes MAY not reach the recipient.

I wouldnt go. But thats me. If she cant take the time to respond then its not that important to her. Id also stop contacting her until she responds.

Seems with these kids these days, calling is a lost art.

I wonder if they text to each other while on an actual date.

I texted her, and messaged her on plenty of fish, and she has been online to read it.

So, I'm not going. Plus, its snowing hard outside, don't wanna drive in that.

Absolutely - she already confirmed. What's with the agree, confirm, confirm confirm nonsense?

You guys jump to conclusions. She already agreed on the phone - why does she need to continue?!

She ALREADY confirmed once! Are ALL of you younguns that insecure? Do you need a daily reconfirm, hourly? Next it'll be, she didn't contact me in the last 5 minutes, so our date is off!

Not only is a phone CALL a lost art, they are so insecure they need hourly reconfirmation of something previously agreed to.

OP, assume the worst. She will have dodged the bullet by YOU standing her up because of your incredible insecurities. Who needs a baby to date!

If I make plans with a friend for a few days out, I always touch base the day of, just to make sure it's still a go, and vice versa. Things can change in 4 days.

That aside, he's contacted her by text and online and has seen her online since and no reply. That looks like a brush-off to me.

Why would YOU contact them?! I guess because you know they're flakes. I assume a normal person would let me know if something unexpected happens and I don't have time for flakes.
