This guy hasn’t texted me for 2 days and didn’t even confirm we were still on for tonight. I thought it wasn’t happening. Sure enough he shows up, and now do I look like the asshole here?

Hmm I feel like it depends on who initiated the date. If you did, you should’ve texted him to confirm, and if he did, he def should’ve texted u to confirm and ur NTA.

I feel like both of you should’ve confirmed or otherwise said something. Who just doesn’t talk for two days before a date? No one’s TA but like, how do you get into this situation

I mean if you have a day, time, and place set, I feel like you should show up (or at least text to confirm). If the details were still blurry then that makes sense, but clearly there was something decided so it doesn’t matter if you texted or not recently?? Like the thing is still planned

Seems like a breakdown of communication by both of you

Seems like you were more emotionally driven by the fact he didn’t text you for two days the confirmation wasn’t exactly needed. If you had a job interview on Tuesday, would you expect them to message you every day and then confirm the interview the day of? Probably not.

NTA, I’d have assumed the same thing if a guy didn’t talk to me for days before a suggested date (because without confirmation all it was was an idea)

Why didn’t you text him? If the plan was set then yeah ur the ah. Some people aren’t big texters or phone people. If u texted to confirm with no response that’s a diff issue

Like yes, ideally he should’ve confirmed that day, but if you create a concrete plan then you should go through with it, there’s no reason to believe it won’t happen (and if you’re confused then ask)
