Being stood up ...
The past month I have had made arrangements with 2 guys ...
The first one I met on my birthday at the martini bar I was at with my best friend ... I got his number talked to him for a week and arranged to go out with him 2 weeks after (memorial day weekend) .. He seemed decent the first Non Political guy that I have encountered in awhile I was so excited that he was not involved at all with what I am involved with...
My friend told me to call him and make sure that we were still on and I confirmed with him earlier in the week he still said we were on and he was wondering if he should get a hotel room .. Since he lives 2 hours away I am like if you dont want to drive the 2 hours back that night sure ...
2 days later I called him the day of our date saying if he was hungry we can go to this place that I loved that I havent been in awhile ... Well I never got a call or a text saying he couldnt make it ...
======================
The other day I was out shopping for fathers day and I was approached by a guy who had questions about my mp3 player I answered them and was waiting to cross the street .. He asks for my number and I am stupid enough I give it out to him ... He put out his hand and introduced himself and I did... Well then he was like I wanna hold your hand crossing the street (ewww creep yea!) Well he follows me into Virgin Records and he is talking to me and he seems decent until he was like lemme give you a hug then he sticks his tongue down my throat... This point I say my friend is calling me that I have to go (which she was!) ..
So I go into another store and yet another guy comes ... I am like oh great .. He asks for my number I give it to him .. He called the past few nights I wasnt able to talk so last night I called him and he asked if I was free today and I was I told him I would call him after I ran my errands and I did .. I gave him a 2 hour window .. No call not even a text..
Sorry this is so long I am really angry and this is becoming a habit that I cannot control I have tried to do less of my political stuff and start to seeing other people but if this is going to happen all the time why bother?

I'm guessing by the number of men who have approached you, that you are an attractive woman. I think some guys see attractive women as some sort of game. They see you, they are attracted to you and they think, well, what do I have to lose? I think a large majority of these men are NOT expecting you to take them up on their offers. Therefore, when you do, they have no idea what to do next. Maybe some of them have a significant others? Maybe some of them are wusses? Maybe they are intimidated?
Why don't you start getting their numbers instead of giving out yours? Make them follow through with plans or at least give you their lame excuse. It may not in person, but at least they're not standing you up!?
