I had never been stood up until recently. I was dating a guy for seven months and it was going really well (or so I thought!) We had plans to meet for dinner than go to a concert. He never showed. I called 'cause I was worried something had happened, but got voicemail. Thinking he might still show, I ate dinner, then went to the concert ALONE...and have been ever since.
I still wonder why he just couldn't talk to me. If nothing else just out of respect for what we had shared. 
Pretty painful experience and I will always wonder, but life goes on, right? |

Maybe she did show up and could not find you in the crowded diner? 
I was waiting in the vestibule for awhile and my car for awhile. I tried calling her cell and got no response. That is never a good sign.... 
That was going to be my next question, did you try calling her cell phone. If she didn't answer, thats the signal. What a bummer. That's really the shiitz.

What's with the double standard here???
When a woman complains of a man standing her up, he's a jerk. When a man complains of a woman sanding him up, she must of had a reason? Look, there is no excuse for abusing someones feelings like that. No one should ever be treated with that kind of disdain. |

Yes I was crushed for the time it took me to drive home... The diner is less than half a mile from my condo...
I figure she did me a favor ya know? |

Look, there is no excuse for abusing someones feelings like that. No one should ever be treated with that kind of disdain. I agree completely. If I'm not interested, I just don't set things up. Man or woman it's still a jerk move. |

Well no I've never been stood up, and have never stood anyone else up either.
Didn't realize it was such an issue

It's happened to me a few times and the following is my favorite tale: My date called me approximately 20 minutes before we were supposed to meet. She told me that she was running late and would likely arrive at the diner in a half an hour (meaning 10 minutes late...) So I get there and she's a no-show. WTF??? If she changed her mind could she have not told me when she called? Or if she needed to could she have not come up with one of a dozen different excuses? To this day I'm at a loss to understand this. Anyone else have a good one? I was stood up once... a grand total of five times. In the same day. By the same flake. My date-that-never-was decided to call me up about two hours before the much-dreaded date to tell me she had "last-minute plans" and couldn't make it. "Fine", I say and I go about my (now dateless) business. Then she calls up something like twenty minutes later and proclaims that her "last-minute plans" went kaput and that she was NOW able to go on our date. "Fine", I say and get cleaned up for the much-dreaded date. Then she calls up again to say that she had some OTHER "last-minute plans" that had "just come up" and that she wouldn't be able to make the date, only to call AGAIN minutes later to say that she was now able to date. In the end, she stood me up. She didn't even have the nerve to tell me that she couldn't make the date, either. Of course, this was partially my fault, as I was a wee bit TOO understanding- I shoulda told her to get lost after the first time she did the double-switcheroo on me and leave it at that, but I was too caught up in being the dreaded "nice guy" and didn't.

Don't you actually have to have a date first to be stood up? enuff said That's more of a philosophical question if you ask me. Because if you got stood up, you didn't have a date. But you have to have a date to be stood up. Chicken/egg thing maybe. I think that you can be stood up without having an actual date. Because before you actually meet with someone it's just "plans," after you meet up, it's a date. |

If it helps, I could plan on standing you up on say... Thursday? |
