    After another what I thought was a good date only to be ghosted afterwards (and I waited 6 hours for them too)

    F me thats bad. I had someone show up to a date an hour and a half late once, then was surprised when I was barely keen when they finally showed. A mates mrs (who set us up) was excited to ask me how it went. I said “Well, she stood me up for ages… so not really interested!” She replies “Oh, thats just who she is. You’ll get to know her!” “Nah, I’m right thanks. I might hate myself, but I respect myself more than that”.

      It wasn’t a stand up. It was more I was in Launceston doing some things, hoping to see my brother who was flying in to watch the footy but he had flight issues, and I talked to her and she had something on and wanted to meet afterwards.

      It means waiting 6 hours but she seemed keen to meet. I liked what I knew of her, we spoke on the phone, so I went for it.

      Thought it went well but … apparently not.

      It also takes me 90-100 minutes to get to Launceston.

      I feel like a real mug sometimes.

        Miss 100% of the shots you don’t take bro. Look at it as an absolute win: you’re not so jaded that you didn’t try.
