If someone reschedules a date, do you let them contact you?

Asked by mowens (8403points) July 17th, 2011

Ok, so I have gone on 3 dates with this guy – (I am a 27 year old gay male) and we were supposed to hang out on Friday. When I messaged him to see what was up, he rescheduled for today. Should I take the hint and go away, or other. :)

Why on Earth would you ditch him when he has had to reschedule one time?

Stuff happens in everyone’s life.

haha no i meant… should I wait for him to contact me… I guess I wrote that poorly.

marinelife's avatar

Oh, you mean should you wait for him to contact you today,

I would just call him or text him saying, “What time are we getting together?”

If he rescheduled, take it at face value.
Call and ask if all is well and still on for today. Be supportive as shit does happen.

I hope you have a fun day!

If you’re worried about appearing a bit pushy or too eager remember that your time is valuable and you need to know what’s going on. If it has nothing to do with that, well, then I just feel silly.

@JilltheTooth I’ve been too pushy in the past. I am trying to be less pushy. I am naturally a very bold person.

Good things come to those that wait. Old saying still has meaning today.

I’ve heard something else, “You don’t get what you deserve in life, you get what you negotiate.” A casual text with, “Are we still on for tonight?” should get a clear response. If it’s not going to work out, you’ll know before too long.

I hate this part!

Take your puppy out, it’ll pass the time better. Oh, do you have the puppy, yet?

@JilltheTooth You don’t know what I thought you meant!

Okay has he rescheduled for a specific date and time? If so text him casually confirming the time or something, If he has generally said okay lets reschedule for so and so day then wait for him to contact you. That’s what I would do atleast.

@janbb I thought the same thing. Gutter minds think alike?

I agree with those that say a casual text or phone call to confirm the time.

@chyna and @janbb : You both are dirty, dirty girls! I love that about you…

Don’t rush into judgement. See what happened then figure it out what’s what.

mowens's avatar

It went well.

@JilltheTooth Not yet! I am still moving. Now that I am in I am going to wait for a litter. I am however leaning towards a Greater Swiss Mountain dog now, because the energy level of a german shepherd is starting to make me nervous. I am pretty active, but when I am on call my schedule can me erratic. (one week every 2 months) I dont want the dog to go crazy over it.
