Alexander,

I salutation to get your advice on how to seep this situation.

I was supposed to meet a woman for a first meeting final week. I did what you thought and called her with a sure suggestion as to where, when on earth and what time to meet. She thought yes.

Roughly 45 account past we are supposed to meet, her name pops up on my cell phone's caller ID. I didn't definite it. She ends up leaving me a voicemail (sounding all austere) that she has to happen and generate up a project at work, but would "like a raincheck".

I end up profession her back and get her voicemail. I tell her that it's too bad she can't make it, but she call for give me a call when on earth she gets a justification and we can try and change around.

In the same way as call for I do if she calls me back?

MY COMMENTS

You are check it fine so far. DO NOT contact her again.

It was a good move putting the drop in HER year as far as delay (isn't it funny how she just called you, but now all of a angry can't definite her phone?). I similarly like how you thought 'we can TRY and change around. I flight of the imagination that was premeditated on your part.

In the reveal that she calls you again (and I don't think she will), contemporary are two schools of guesswork as to how to seep it.

One approach would be to give her the benefit of the doubt and change around. Perhaps something trustworthy DID come up 45 account past you were supposed to meet (mind you, in seven time in force as an public prosecutor, I never had to cancel policy).

All the same, if you are taking into account this dig, make sure of yourself you gauge her tone when on earth she ends up profession you. First off, does she sincerely Stretch you, or does she hustle a characters or an email? Does she do penance again for canceling on you with such temporary notice? Does she collapse to buy the first tubby of drinks? Or does she act as if what she did was clearly normal, and take a breather for you to ask her out again?

Either way, if you DO end up delay, keep the fact that she cancelled on you in the back of your chief, and keep your eyes open for any outlying sufficient red flags.

And next contemporary is MY nationalized direct of guesswork - Last HER Make Sideways.

Harsh? By chance. But a smashed date is Shady. To quote Doc Veneration, "Women with high seasoning level don't break dates. Am I departure too fast for you guys?"

Stretch me unfashionable if you wish, but if I give my word that I am departure to do something, I do it. To the same extent it comes to dating, if I make policy with a woman to be anywhere at a unreserved time, I show up. If I get recent collapse for policy that night, I disappear. To do otherwise is entirely cheeky. It's that simple.

And I am happy to say that the great body of women I bring into being met bring into being similarly shy their word about policy. I bring into being NEVER been stood up, and I think a total of three women bring into being cancelled on me in the out of four time. Later so host quality women out contemporary, why exercise your time on organization that is, at best, unreliable?

In temporary Craig, unless she by some means manages to damage you over with how bad she feels about cancelling on you final not much, I would get rid of her. From my experience, this is just a sign of what's to come.

I afterward had a situation where a woman cancelled on me the afternoon of our first meeting in the same way as she was in force behind. She didn't clip me as the flaky type, so I agreed to change around. As soon as all, matter DO come up, right?

We finished up departure out and had a great time. I called her a few existence then and made policy to meet again. She everyday. Be contiguous bounty, she sends me a characters ethical the day we were supposed to meet and cancels on me Over. Needless to say, I dropped her lately. Taste erudite.

As Carlos Xuma says, "You teach people how to treat you with your deportment. Your time is costly, isn't it? If your time isn't, neither are "you"."

Great luck!
