I got STOOD UP today.

[yvr girl]

I've had some seriously bad dating mojo lately. Today was the worst. I GOT STOOD UP!!! First time ever. :grr:

So, who hexed me? I'm sure one of you is to blame.

[DS1]

1. Look on the bright side

you just hit rock bottom
all uphill from here

[WCGreen]

2. Well....

It happened to me....

Once....

When I was fifteen.....

[GalleryGod]

3. I was 22...it was at the Jersey Shore.

I bounced back. It doesn't take away the sting,though.

[MrScorpio]

4. That happened to me before

It really sucks

[OhioBlue]

5. that sucks

Did they have a good excuse? I once flipped out (before we all had cell phones) b/c I was waiting by the phone - we had a scheduled date, I waited for over an hour after we were supposed to go to a dinner and went out myself, only to run into him (I was cold and not speaking to him) later to find out he was with his mom and sister and didn't get home in time to call - it all turned out as an innocent mistake/bad circumstance.

Anyway, don't take it too personally -

:hug:

[matcom]

6. you weren't wearing the 'FMPs' I requested

:grr:

i saw you from across the street. you didn't meet my 'standards' :eyes:

[yvr girl]

7. FMP's?

BTW, I was wearing something most dates would appreciate.

[matcom]

8. "Fuck Me Pumps"

:rofl:

[yvr girl]

12. You didn't like my FMBs?

I wore them just for you.

[GOPisEvil]

9. Ugh! Sorry to hear that.

Some people suck. x(

[SofaKingLiberal]

10. .

[Shine]

11. How RUDE!

sorry that happened. Try not to take it too personally. Maybe they had a good excuse...

:hug:

[bigwillq]

13. That stinks.

Sorry about that.
:hug:

[windy252]

14. Don't worry

You're not the only one who didn't actually have a date.

[u4ic]

15. He wasn't worth it

If he can't handle one date, he won't be able to handle commitment.

Sorry, you'll come out of it fine. :hug:

[Gormy Cuss]

16. Unless he had a really good reason, like a death in the family

he's just a loser. Adults know how to back out of dates gracefully.

[EstimatedProphet]

17. That did happen to me a couple times

Once, when she got pulled away by friends. she had the decency to apologize. The other time was by someone who pretty much led me on. We didn't stay friends at all.

[leftofthedial]

18. the curse worked!

[yvr girl]

19. So YOU'RE the one

Why?

[leftofthedial]

20. not really. Seriously, I wish you nothing but happiness.

curses aren't my style. How could someone possibly be so stupid as to stand you up?

[yvr girl]

22. Their loss

[leftofthedial]

24. I'll say.

[Ramsey]

21. Well, look at it this way

Did you really want to spend the evening with some guy who was such an asshole that he'd stand you up. Look at it as precious time spared.

[yvr girl]

23. This is true

But why make the date in the first place?

[Ramsey]

27. Because he's an asshole!

One of those unfortunate traits that seems to afflict a large percentage of the Y chromosome crowd.

[Redstone]

25. That's what you get for breaking that poor camel's back.

Redstone

[yvr girl]

28. I'm the camel

My back is broken.

[Redstone]

29. I gotcha in your other thread. See my reply there.

If you want a shoulder, you know thatI only have the one good one left, but you can use it if you need to.

Redstone

[yvr girl]

30. Thanks, Redstone

:hug:

[Robeson]

26. You found out he was a jerk sooner than later....

...which is probably a good thing, before you had too much emotional investment involved.
