Girls don’t just do this to me, I also do this to girls. If they respond positively to me asking them out, but when it comes time to actually coordinate a date, if she can’t nail down a time and actually show up for the date, I don’t get mad, I just take it as a sign that she’s not ready for the kind of dating I want to do, or that she just wasn’t that into me.
Sometimes when I do this the lady gets upset, she was interested but doesn’t have her life together enough for dating. I just smile sadly and change the subject.
I asked a friend of mine that I’ve known for a few years now out for dinner. The experience of trying to spend some time together left me so cold I just stopped trying. I’m letting that go back to our earlier friendship and not mentioning it again. I see her once a week if I can bring myself to go down to the restaurant she works at.
There’s absolutely no point in having hard feelings about it. If a girl wants to just be friends, I honor her wish and we just be friends.
