Today, I went to dinner with an amazing guy. At the end he said he had to go to the washroom. 15 min later he was still MIA, so I figured he'd ditched me with the bill. I paid and left. 10 min later he texted me, asking where I was. Turns out he hadn't ditched me. He was having "stomach issues." FML

Today, I went on a date with a guy who seemed to be quite the gentleman. I was proven wrong when he told me to "shut it" during dinner, stiffed me on the bill, and then left me at the restaurant so he could get his own taxi home. FML
Today, I went on a date. After we finished our meal, I had to use the bathroom really bad. When I said so, my date totally lost it and accused me of planning on climbing out a window and ditching her. "Fuck that and fuck you!" she said, then stormed out, leaving me with the bill. FML
Today, I was on a date with a guy I've been crushing on. In the middle of the dinner, he said he had to go get something from his car. When I asked what it was, he smiled and said it was a surprise. I waited for my surprise for half an hour. Then I decided to pay the bill and go home and cry. FML

Perhaps you should have atleast tried calling or texting him before you left?

il admit i would probably have thought the same, but a simple 'where are you' text would have cleared everything up. fingers crossed it all worked out ok :)

Well seeing as you both had cell phones, perhaps you should've texted him idiot.

I have to say I can identify with OP! My first dinner date with my now hubby of over 23 yrs. he went to the bathroom & was gone forever! Well, it seemed like forever! Things haven't changed much in all these years! If he's got stomach issues now, they're going to get worse with age! Next time, try a little more patience!

honestly, I pity the OP more than the guy. To have enough bad experiences to make you cynical enough to automatically assume you've been ditched sucks. I've been there myself - I struggle with rock bottom self esteem every day because of all the shallow guys I have encountered. Here's hoping that your amazing guy is as understanding and supportive as my amazing guy ^_^ all you need is a wonderful boyfriend to make you forget all the bad.
