I’m not saying this is all women, or that this is only women, but why not cancel a day with honesty? Like why not just say you lost interest?

I am overall having an okay time with dating as a guy, but I’ve had like 2-3 people give excuses about work/school and then never reach out again, and just hate another when the date was literally planned for tomorrow morning. And I was extra excited from what we had talked about and how she looks, I just would love some direct honesty more than anything

In the future, if you get one of these texts, just say “thanks for letting me know, let me know if you’d be interested in rescheduling.” If the answer is no or you don’t get one at all, there’s your answer. Or you reschedule. End of problem!! This is an issue for both genders, and I think younger adults in general. To be fair though, I don’t think it’s about interest, I think school/work/sickness/emergencies are just easier than saying you’re tired, making other plans, or broke LMAO

People are afraid of backlash

I think it’s mostly just fear of backlash. I tend to take the route of actually communicating with guys if I lose interest and some of the reactions are… interesting 😭

It’s funny how you have to preface this with “not all women…” while people here happily chant “I HATE ALL MEN” lmao

The last date I was reaffirming the time a couple hours before and he basically was like oh nevermind I need to get school work done and I have a big project due and thought I’d have more done.. and this was a Friday or Saturday night hour or two thing

I did leave things open, but I think someone who was actually interested would’ve offered an alternative themselves if it was just that they are busy

That’s the response from somebody who is well mannered and interested, 100% agree. If the offer wasn’t made and you don’t appreciate that, then you can just leave it at a thanks for letting me know :))
