I noticed that you posted earlier in the day yesterday. Did you ever hear from him? I think everyone hates it when someone says they are going to do something and then don't. Even if it's just a phone call. Why do people have to be so darn flaky? I don't get it. If you can't make it, isn't it better to just be honest rather than leave someone hanging? I know that I have cancelled dates the day before with only the explanation that it has been a hectic week and I am simply tired. What's so hard about that?

Aww, Stacey, I'm sorry and that does suck. It's happened to me quite a few times and I will never understand it. I only tell someone I will call them when I know I definitely will, if I'm not totally interested, I don't say anything at all, that way, I'm not held accountable for anything.

He may still call but I know you're not holding your breath.

Hey, BTDT way too many times. How old is this guy? I think most men are afraid to cancel because they don't know how we will react. If they only tried it, they may be surprised and get an unexpected reaction like, I don't know, "Hey thanks I appreciate your honestly"! If he does call you (and it sounds like you hope that he does) don't be avaialbe for the first night he chooses. And if you do make plans and he blows you off (even if it's a maybe) call him on it. Show him you deserve that much respect. Good luck! For what it's worth.....I haven't had a date in months.
