Classic switcheroo

By Anonymous - 05/01/2021 11:01

Today, I had a movie date planned with a guy. After a polite exchange, we were interrupted by a phone call from his colleague saying they had an emergency that needed his attention. He excused himself to take the call, telling me he wouldn't be long. He drove off and blocked my number the moment he stepped out. FML

Today, I was set up on a date by a coworker. The guy turned up late, but whatever. He then spent 30 breathlessly long minutes complaining about his "bitch of an ex." Then he spent another 30 minutes trying to convince me that the QAnon bullshit was real. I had to pull the whole 'fake emergency phone call' to get the hell out of there. FML

There was no emergency. He told his friend to call him at a set time so he could make a quick exit if he decided you were a dog.

He sucks for treating you that way, but you're better off without him.

Regardless of how it was handled, your date has no further interest in being with you. Just let it go and move on. Obsessing over it won’t help.

Ouch, that sucks. That happened to me once, and it wasn't even a date, I was meeting up with musicians to talk about forming a band. The person who wanted to be the singer took a call in the middle of the meeting and said her friend had an "emergency" and left immediately and we never heard from her again, nor would she return emails.

The fact that he clearly planned it in advance kinda makes me wonder what "Angles" you were using for your profile picture.

A female I went on a date did something like this. I ended up running into her 2 weeks later, which she apologized for pulling that tactic. I sat there for a second and said “I don’t accept apologies from assholes” and promptly got up and got myself a refill on coffee with a smug grin on my face.
