Today, I went on a first date, only for us to find the restaurant wasn't open on New Year's Day. My date suggested going to the mall instead. We drove in our own cars. Me: the mall, him: home. I waited for 40 minutes before realising he'd stood me up. Happy New Year to me. FML
newyearstandup tells us more.
Thanks for the support guys. To answer some of your questions.... The mall was suggested by him as we figured it was the only place we knew 100% was open. I don't think he suggested a closed restaurant deliberately. In my city it's touch and go what will be open on public holidays. We knew exactly where to meet - where all the restaurants are at the mall. And I did call and message a couple of times but received nothing back. He also deleted me from the dating site we met on. So it was a clear ditch. He knew what I looked like beforehand so dunno what it was! And we basically just had a one minute conversation so doubt I could have pissed him off in that little amount of time! Very doubtful he was in an accident. Definitely dodged a bullet I think. Hopefully this doesn't set the tone for 2015!

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

You should have known the mall was closed on new year. But oh well, tell him to go **** himself.

OP never said the mall was closed, op also lives in Australia, as I do, and there's a lot of places here that are still open on new years day, in fact I worked at one both new years eve and day

Send him a Summer's Eve sample with a note that says this little gesture reminds me so much of you.

Sorry that guy is not worth it anyway. 2015 will bring you the love of your life you just have to believe ?

Well maybe he just didn't want to go to the mall considering he's a guy and shopping is boring to most (still could've said no though)

Why would he suggest going to the mall if he didn't want to go to the mall?
