I had a date all set up today, when I called him the time we set up the night before he wasn't ready. He didn't remember that we were going to go out for sandwiches together. He said that he would shower and shave and call me back. I waited 30 minutes and my brother asked me to go to lunch with him. I decided to go out to lunch with him instead cause I was tired of waiting. 10 minutes later he called said he was headed out to meet up. I told him that I was going to have lunch with my brother. He asked me did you have other plans and hung up. I tried calling back several times. I eventually got a hold of him at the restaurant and he said it was okay. I feel real bad and the night before he said he wanted to get to know me better. Should I try arranging another date or blow the guy off for hanging up on me and forgetting date plans?

If it took him that long to shave, he's probably too old for you.
Really, he didn't even remember he had a lunch date with you. I would have either canceled on him at that point or rescheduled for another time. Probably canceled. I'm not into pursuing people who forget they made a date with me. I'm more into people who look forward to spending time with me.
When was the last time you forgot you had a date with somebody you really wanted to have a date with?
Never has happened to me. Maybe I'm different.

Well, I am a little in between on this one. I forget things easily...heck I don't remember what I did 10 minutes ago. He may have had a lot on his mind and in all honesty, he just forgot. Maybe arrange for another one. He may have just been upset because you decided to go with your brother and it may have seemed you were being impatient and he may not know it really was your brother. It sounds like he may have thought you said said "Screw it" and playin' around. Talk it over and see how it goes. Take care!

Men are flakes - - - ask Hillary - - - it is the nature of the beast - - if you feel it is time to move on, move on, if you still feel a strong attraction and truly want action, then you will simply have to plan another attack - - it is the nature of dating. You cannot imagine how often men forgive the hottest girl on campus for forgetting their date, they simply set another one and hope, much like Presidents launching wars - - - maybe it will work out the next time.

Dont be too hush. May be there was a real reason to his excuse. People have tendencies to forget. I dont think he is a type of keeping a diary kindda guy. The fact that he showered, shave to meet you....that was his effort to look good for the date. He did called you back didnt he?

I think you should move on also. Forgetting the date and being short fused are red flags. I hope you treat yourself better than that! I'm glad you are not letting him walk all over you without question. The future would look very dim with this guy. Peace!

Try again. He may have had a good reason for forgetting you. Maybe his pet chinchilla died. Who knows, in 20 years it might be a humorous story between you two.
And to the homophobe above, how do you know a woman's vagina is better than a man's anus? Been trying both?

make plans again. 30 minitues to shower, shave , and get dressed is quick. You should have given him a little more time. meet up with him and get to know each other better. Him forgetting once is understandable,

I think that you should...you should give him another chance because i think he ung up on youuthat he hung up on you because you kind of did blow him off...but I am sure he did not forget about you on purpose that happens sometime maybe he had something important to do that day that his time was totally comsumed so I think that you should give him another chance...Everyone desreves a second chance

HE was rude. Letting you wait around for him and than acting like you wasted his time, is a clear veiw of what would continue to happen in the future if there was one. It's not good. Let it go.

gray area, maybe he was having a bad day. so make plans but explain that punctuality and showing up in general are important to you, if he blows it off move on, who knows maybe the cute waiter at the resturant where he stands you up could be the one. lolololol
