Don't delete her number, but don't dial it. She owes you a call.

She just told you she was running late. YOU were the one that brought up rescheduling and she probably figured that's what you would prefer since you're the one that said it.

im normally the same as you, but i got burned a few times and look back and see how i could of avoided all of that mess
Yes I know they can LOL!... But they usually wait until they have a first date first

I've been in your position mate and yes it's not nice to get burned but in this case you're not emotionally involved yet and by thinking the worst and jumping the gun you might miss out on a good/genuine one

If you are hasty and block her you'll never find out mate

I don't know what to make of it, myself. I mean, what are the chances that someone has two "emergencies" in just one week? Her friend's car broke down? What does that have to do with her? On a Thursday, she'd be coming home from work in her own car or on transit, presumably, and getting ready for the date. What does her friend having car trouble have to do with anything? Plus, she said the "guy" (AAA, or whoever) had arrived, so, why couldn't she just go home and continue as planned, meeting you after she got ready for the date? The "emergency" had passed, according to her. So there was no need to cancel.

I guess she wasn't that into the date. What else can one conclude? You were on your way. She could have said, "Give me 20 minutes to get ready".

I agree with zentropa. If she's truly into you, she should call you. If she does call you, and another "emergency" interferes, that's her 3rd strike--she's out.

Two extreme emergencies in the early stages is a heck of a coincidence.

Dating isn't supposed to be THIS hard, OP. I agree that she owes you a call.

It's possible the car was towed and she still needed to take her friend somewhere or who knows what. Making assumptions without knowing the circumstances doesn't help anybody

There is a difference between learning from your mistakes and holding your past mistakes/regrets against new people. Everyone should start out with a clean slate. Anything less is unfair. However, I understand your suspicions and agree that it's her move.

I wouldn't delete her number. I would give her the benefit of doubt and wait to see if she calls you. If she calls, she is still interested. If she doesn't call, she isn't interested. Give it time.

I had a girl schedule 4 times on me after our initial date. She eventually told me she wasn't ready for another relationship.

Not sure why she didn't just tell me that after the first date.


The reality is, you're on the same projection. Don't put too much weight into this as it's probably not going to last.

here is what gets me though. This is the third date, why would she confirm at 2 and then flake 15 minutes before. she knows me some and what to expect. the only thing i can think of is that she double booked.

then that maybe text kinda annoys me enough to delete. i kind of took that one as a f u
