So.... Seems like i just got a date! Girl called me and confirmed that we are gonna meet on Saturday.... Considering it worked well when i met her and during the phone chats, i guess i should mess with her (to certain limits of course)... so better for me to not drink more than 2,3 beers
Wish me luck dakka!

Guys....question, how should I treat the girl who stood me up? She is still talking tome, asking for help in class, staring at me during class And everything? Should I tell her off or just be nice and help here with her hw?

did she give you a reason for standing you up that seemed legit?

generally though, even if she is actually interested in you, people who cannot be bothered to at least tell you they wont show up, dont really have your interests at heart.

put simply, would you stand someone up, without at least a good reason or a call to let them know you wont be there? If you wouldnt do it to someone, dont let them do it to you.

ladies dig guys who set boundaries and expect good treatment of themselves, I think they understand that it gets reciprocated, so those who expect highly of their partners, also have high expectations of themselves.

Personally I'd give her one more chance. She may have freaked out that it was on valentines day thus sending out a stronger message than she was ready to give. I'd treat her as per normal, even if she stood me up a second time. The 2nd time she stood me up would be the last time though. Have you asked her why she didn't turn up?
Oh you help her with her HW? hmmmmm maybe she's doing it for the school help. I'd still give her one more chance though, i don't think there's any need to get all pissy and cold about things.

NW that swellfella! good luck and i hope that things swell up for you on the date, those 2 beers might be a good idea

Talking to here and looking back, I realize she is a nice person, in the sense she doesn't or didn't want confrontation and looks a bit slow on the uptake.
But she has a boyfriend and a girlfriend, so she is a bit outta bounds right now.

Did you ask her "hey, what happened on {day}, I thought we had plans"? If she had a legitimate excuse (including an excuse for not telling you that she was canceling) and at least made a token show of regret then just accept it and move on. You're probably not going to get a date, but you might as well at least be (very casual) friends in class. If she didn't have a legitimate reason then no, you shouldn't give her help or anything, and you should tell her why. And if you just passively accepted that she was incredibly rude to you and never bothered to confront her about it then that's entirely your fault, and you're probably going to continue to give her homework help no matter what we say.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

This thread...

...

A lot of this is really 'personal blog' territory.

The primary reason for Dakka Dakka is the discussion of miniature wargaming - Toy Soliders.

The "Off Topic" forum really isn't intended as "Personal Blog" repository.

You should really have...a Personal Blog for that.

So, having said that...
