So last night i had a dinner date with a woman at a local restaurant which is also part owned by somebody i know, I was on time as always, went in and got a table, told the hostess i was waiting for a friend, after 15 minutes i ordered a glass of wine and waited, I noticed the part owner sitting at the bar so i went over to talk to him and say hi, before going back to my table i mentioned i was waiting for somebody. After waiting 45 minutes i had to make a decision on whether to just pay for my wine and leave or have dinner anyway which is what i did.
I know i had nothing to be embarrassed about but it is embarrassing to be stood up and it hurts, still does today and makes you feel like crap, the good thing about the whole thing is i had a nice dinner, was even too much for me to eat so so i just finished the left overs today at work, another good thing is maybe i won't feel so bad about going out to eat by myself now.
Is it normal for me not to want anybody to find out that i got stood up, embarrassed, the guy i know could tell people, oh well that's life.
The women did message me back after i messaged her, she was very apologetic about the confusion, i guess i will try again, i really do want to meet her, it took a month to set up that date.

I have never been stood up on a date so not much help I can give. Never having had many dates helped keep that high score!
ReplyDeleteIf I had had a date set up with you I would have been camped there waiting, the date would have been tattooed on my wrist to make sure I got it right.

Oh wow, I'm sorry hon. I know how much that can hurt, goodness knows I've been stood up so often I felt like a pinata at times. Besides our special circumstances, people are just flaky. I no longer expect much from dates so I don't get dissapointed. As vibrant as you've become, you'll have plenty of new ones soon anyhow :)
