Thank you Jill I have walked away from a lot of jerks, but at least I tell them why I am walking away. Maybe the next time they will think twice. maybe not It really ticks me to no end. But then I realized that I was really just picking bad men. Try something different... someone different. And don't be so willing to get your hopes up. If a guy you didn't really date for very long doesn't call you back... then let him go. Don't be easily available for him. That's what helped me. Once they realize that we don't NEED him right now... we actually do have a life and fun without you around... thats when he wants to be around you even more. Men are strange like that

not just move on but completely forget that jerk. [/What are the signs to look for when figuring out a good man from a jerk? coukld somone enlightne me please I"m a guy and I must admit that most (not all) man I know are jerks towards women, I sometimes feel ashamed to be a man when I hear them talk about woman and even worst when I see how they change their tune depending if a woman is present or not. |

Have you ever set up a date, a spacific time and place to meet, you show up on time, you might even get there first, go ahead and get a table for two, and you wait. With all the tech. these days, cell phones and e-mails, the other person knows he/she is not going to show up, and yet you sit there waiting, telling the waitress, you will wait to order when you friend arrives. You end up feeling and looking like a fool.Do you call and try to find out what happend to them? do you make excuses for them? so you feel like a fool? do you give them another chance?  No second chances

I was stood up like this about 3 years ago. I showed up first, sent a text to him and told him I was at the bar, and I put our names in for a table. He never replied to the text but maybe the stereo was loud or he was driving *what-ev* By the time he was 15 minutes late, I called him. No answer. I told the bartender I just got stood up and I wanted to buy he and I a shot of Patron Silver! I hung out with the bartender for another hour, chatted, and I watched the game. I had a great time!! Dude called me the next day and acted 'dumb'. He said he forgot about our date and never received my call or text. WTF ever, dude! 
I didn't give him another chance. His excuse was lame -- no consideration -- and that is someone who plays games. I don't play games.

I can't say that I was sad and felt bad about myself at first, but I quickly decided he was not going to have that power over me.

This has happened a number of times in that exact manner. A date would be set, I'd be at the meeting place, and would proceed for the date that would never come. I typically only wait about a half-hour before deciding to "cut bait" and leave the establishment. I used to give second chances ("mulligans" I call them) if the person was TRULY under some form duress that resulted in the flaking out, but I don't even do that anymore. |

Hell yes! You better be broke down on the side of the road or something worse...& I should at least get a phone call, or dead in some alley... That sounds really harsh but so is standing someone up who probably was all excited about the date...People can be so cruel sometimes and just not give a sh!t....
