Because I'm an idiot, I did it again, and she stood me up.
Dammit. :-(
Teaches me about trusting people.

I think you now have "your final answer" as to whether or not to pursue anything with her.
Those disappearing acts, regardless the style, are decidedly a royal pain and after a couple of times I go into "if I see it I'll believe it" mode and leave any future contact up to them. (Of course I don't hold my breath.)

I have to wonder, does she get some kind of weird enjoyment out of this? Is she sitting at her place right now laughing because "haha Drew was all excited to see me"(which she knows, because I told her :-( )?
I really don't understand why people have to act like this.

I have no clue Jersey... I think that some people just have a need to feel wanted.. well, we all that have need to a certain degree, but some have it and use it to the detriment of other people.

Sorry to hear that, Drew. But we are all better people for the falls we take, even though they hurt at the time.
But-look at all the fun people you can hang with here! Until you meet somebody that loves you for who you are, and won't play games.

Drew, as old as I am, I have never figured out why people do what they do. I do know when the treatment or behavior is unacceptable, move on.

Not trying to be negative or anything, but is it possible she saw your OTHER thread?? She might be the kind of person who thinks revenge is best served cold..lol. I think she just set you up to get "even" with you for saying so many bad things about her. Either way you're much better off without her and can place another chapter in your "Lesson Learned" handbook!! Good luck to you with the next gal and please remember, we're NOT all like her!!

Drew - you should be celebrating!!! You learned what kind of a person she is - before you got any more interested in her!!!! If she is that way now - how would she have been after 6 months????
I am sorry this happened to you... saying it stinks is putting it way too mildly! But..as the others have said - move on and grow from it. Hopefully the next one you date will be more honest and real! Just because she was a total jerk doesn't mean everyone is...becoming too bitter and jaded will simply let her win!

Eh, we talked about it, I apologized, she apologized for cutting out on me like that, and we kept talking and saying we might give it another shot.

Drew
I'm sorry to hear about what happened with your plans to meet the young lady. Things of that nature have happened to most if not all of us at one time or another. I'm impressed by the maturity you have exhibited in handling this situation. It's always best to find out up front if someone you have a personal interest in is a person of their word and trustworthy or not. As life goes on you will find that many frustrations will occur - some small and some large. I can only repeat what others before me have said, and that is take these experiences and learn from them. And remember, don't settle for less than someone who respects you and your feelings.

Drew.....welcome to the world of Internet Dating. Being stood up, having people appear and disappear at a moment's notice, playing games with your head, all that stuff, is a part of the internet. As messed up as it is, it's something you sign up for if you stick around. That, however, does not mean everybody is going to do that to you. I can't give you a percentage, it all depends on the type of person you attract and how you talk to them, etc. But in all reality, there are fakes and people who DO get their charge out of sitting back and wondering what you're doing after making the 2nd or 3rd plan to meet and they've stood you up again. Like I've said, not all people online are like that, but you have to be willing to weed thru the bad ones to find the better ones. It's up to you whether you want to do that or not but accept the fact that this is not the last time it will happen, sorry to say. We've all got our own stories to tell, some worse than others. At least you didn't get on a plane like some people have, and get off the plane to be greeted by.....NOBODY in a strange city you've never been to. So she stood you up....forget her. Consider yourself lucky it wasn't worse and don't give her another chance.
