As hard as this is to believe, him not showing up had little if anything to do with you.

I'm still sorry it happened to you.

Consider yourself lucky that you didn't go on 5 dates before something went wrong. Probably married or something.

The worst thing thats ever happened to me is one did show up. A rather disingenuous lady with some serious issues. Now I know what you're thinking and no, she was NOT my type. lol

Hey everyone,
I don't post on the forums as much as I should, but I felt like asking a question...See, I got stood up on friday for a coffee date with someone from this site, and I am wondering, how often has this happened to other people? And do I blame myself, or is that just the way the cookie crumbles?


Happens a lot, considering how bad it could have been count yourself lucky.

Could have gone out, developed feelings...then got stood up.

She's right. I bet he put fake pictures up.

when someone does that, they can't show you their real face in person when you're expecting someone much better looking.

It is just the way it crumbles unfortunately.
No don't blame yourself. You were there.
It hasn't happened to me since I haven't actually met
anyone from here, but I am sure it happens.
But sorry it did happen.

Post, stay in the forums and have fun.

Good luck drinker

It happens but it is rude. He shoudl have called (assuming he had yrou number). Otherwise, he coudl have called and left a message at the coffee place...just inconsiderate if you ask me....you deserve better.

I have been stood up by males on this and other sites more times than I can count. I just take it that they woke up and realized that something in their profile/what they were telling me that wasnt the truth and they didnt want to be found out. Brush off and be thankfull.

I have been a time or two, I think if you are out here really wanting to meet someone. It will happen sooner or later.

Blame yourself not a chance, if you went into it open, honestly, and willing to meet someone then it is his problem not yours.

I know it is embarrassing and hurts, I think in some ways it causes us to second guess our judgement. Now if and when it happens I consider myself lucky and blessed I am not going to have that garbage in my life.
Since I deserve better than that.

I have a motto
Stand me up once with no acceptable explanation there will never be a second chance.

Not your fault, more likely than not he was lying about something, be it looks, marital status, could have been any number of things. You showed, he didn't so why would you blame yourself?



I totaally agree. Some people are here already in a relationship but are looking to find something else before they get out of the old one.

Hopefully you didnt wait around too long. I guess it makes the case for meeting somewhere cool with lots of peeps so if someone stands you up you can still hang and have fun :)

I used to get stood up regularly while I was trying to date people on this site. Not since I use this site for my friends. As for the rest without intending the pun there is plenty of fish in the sea so don't worry. Be happy . It could have been worse like Jill says.
