I’ll probably smirk and shake my head, but I wouldn’t be mad. If a girl agrees to grab a drink or catch a movie with me one night, then bails, and then I see her out that night, I’m not going to be mad. I’d say it’s a slap in the face, but they never showed to delivering it would require actually showing up. They organized this part of this day around seeing you and you couldn’t find the common courtesy in you to back out of the plans. Maybe they bought a new dress or outfit, or maybe they spent time making sure their hair/makeup/eyebrows/nails/etc. This other person took the time out of their lives to devote a night to you. I think it’s telling about what kind of person they are. Barring an emergency, I can’t see myself forgiving someone standing me up (or anyone else). While it sucked, a part of me respected her honesty. I’ve had a girl I liked kiss me, then tell me she shouldn’t have done it a couple of days later. There’s nothing wrong with having a change of heart. Not only are you putting your pleasures (no pun intended) before someone else’s feelings, but you’re also showing zero consideration for their time. Standing someone up is the ultimate sign of disrespect. I’ve come to accept rejection better as the years pass, but I can’t accept being a sucker.Ībove all, I can’t accept being stood up. I’ve been all four in some capacity and I have no doubts that I will be all four again in some capacity in the future. Maybe you just didn’t have the heart to tell them no maybe something really did come up maybe you really did forget whatever the reason, you’ve made them a sucker. Either you have some “other plans” come up last minute, or you just leave them high-and-dry. ![]() The Sucker: You agree to go out, exchange numbers, make plans and then it never happens. Sometimes you think they may be worth the night out, so you legitimately want to check your schedule. More than likely, that is your nice way of shooing them off in the moment and never intending to give a response. To bide some time, you give some variation of a, “Let me check my schedule,” response. The Call Me Maybe: You’re not entirely sure what you want to do. ![]() The Hell No: Without flinching, you decline and go about your business. The Hell Yes: Without flinching, you agree and make plans. The person will fall into a number of pre-made categories you’ve subconsciously created but never knew existed until this minute: I’m sure ladies face this dilemma more than men, and I can obviously only speak for my own experiences, but at some point you’re going to be asked out on a date (brace yourselves!).
