Have you ever been stood up? Have you ever stood someone up? If so, why? My answer is No to both questions. I usually plan my meetings out, no spare of the moment meetings. Most come a distance so I am sure they wouldn't want me to stand them up after travel anywhere's from 4 hours to 100's of miles.  I did meet one man here in the city a while back but he was recently moved here and it took me two weeks to meet him. No meets from Mingle2 Yet. These guys move too slow on here unless you live in their City. Most men like women close.
Planning a date out has nothing to do with being stood up. But, that's awesome it has never happened to you :). In my opinion is does have to do with it. I communicate well and know the Men I meet inperson. They are less likely to stand me up, if they couldn't make it, they probably would have Called to say so. If a man just stands you up and never says why or what happen, He wasnt much of a respectful person. I am seeking a respectful man, and there are some still out there. 
I've been stood up a couple times. It's certainly not because I'm seeking out disrespectful people. I don't agree with blaming the person who got stood up for not planning well enough for communicating well enough, though. The sole blame for the two who stood me up falls on the two who stood me up. |

I get accused of this all the time when arseholes enter my life. Its not a premeditated plan I have to get shat upon. Its not part of my routine. Bad people exist. I am not their mothers. I can't teach them to be human anymore than the next person struggled to. Like I said, its all about lying. No matter how much you communicate with them people will refuse to tell you what's really going on. |

With these kind of people, it doesn't matter how well you communicate with them or plan things out, they're still going to lie. They're not going to be honest about what they want or what's going on. |

I've been stood up a few times, but have never stood anyone else up. It is embarrassing and a waste of time and it is easy to just tell someone no, or at the very least, cancel via text. It's called common courtesy.

I never said getting stood up was Your fault. I just said my communications went well and they did Not stand Me up. I guess we both had enough mutual interest to at least Meet in person. Dating sites have people that stand each other up all the time. Nothing New about that. |

I thanked him for fessing up, turned around and seductively stomped back to my car  ....All that seductive walking gave me one hell of an appetite, so on the way home I stopped at McDonalds and ordered a # 4 combo meal, upsize it please ...It was delicious...
haha lol the less here is that people lying about their age... ....and that seductive strutting builds up an appetite! :D |

Back when I was 19, I was stood up for a date. Saw the girl the next day (we worked together) and she tried to explain why she did it. I told her that it was fine. When she asked to reschedule the date, I politely told her that I didn't believe her BS excuse and therefore did not wish to have another date. She tried for the next three weeks to get me to ask her out. Lol.
I've never stood anyone up. I have suffered through a couple of dates but at least I was getting good food out of both of them.

can't recall ever standing anyone up, but once got stood up - it was by accident apparently he got lost but since he was from the same town as me I chose the path of non-believer and refused a reschedule
once a friend and I stood each other up by accident because we got the time wrong - I was there - waited - but left just before he got there about an hour later....so I know stuff can happen.....the waitress at the coffee bar is the one who told me later that he was there looking for me so it wasn't like it was some BS he had made up besides he was a sailor - we know they don't lie

No, but almost, 4 times by the same guy I met online dating. It was a joke! We'd make plans via text or email to meet somewhere a week later, or a couple days later, then nothing. Luckily I texted him before meeting him at the bar area because I hadn't heard anything from him for a while before that.
And I will tell you this: I will NEVER do that again! The guy turned out to be a total flake. We finally met on the 5th try and he said it was "hard" out there. I thought he was telling the truth and was kinda shy. Turns out, he was just in it for the chase and once he caught his prey, the excitement was gone. And it was not "hard" out there for him, he was meeting new women, cooking them dinner, wining and dining them just about every day of the week. Dont ask me how I know this, but I have my sources. |

"I've been stood up a couple times. It's certainly not because I'm seeking out disrespectful people. I don't agree with blaming the person who got stood up for not planning well enough for communicating well enough, though. The sole blame for the two who stood me up falls on the two who stood me up." The men who stand you up are totally disrespectful. The guy I refer to above was totally disrespectful to me. But I gave him chance after chance, only to be dumped like yesterday's trash. I will never allow such treatment like that again! |

I can't remember being stood up... but it probably has happened before at least once, out of statistical probability.
And, yes. Several times. |

For those who have stood people up, why?

Forgetfulness... apathy... disinterest... disdain... cruelty... sadism... sudden unplanned events... my phone dying...
Essentially, I didn't care enough. |

for me, somthing better came up and at the time it was more important to me. i didn't know the person and quite honestly i figured, (in the long run) i was doing her a favor.
