What's acceptable behaviour in a dating or friends situation? Just this morning I ditched a girl over her behaviour, and was classified as "weird" and "glad to find out already" for reacting the way I did.
Her behaviour? About 80% of the time just ignoring all prior agreements about getting in touch, spending time together, etc. She'd suggest we get together on friday, I'd say "Sure!", I'll call her up friday morning to coordinate when and where we're going to meet, and she'll have had to move a meeting from thursday to friday and just haven't bothered to tell me. Or, to take the final trigger, yesterday suggesting we get together later in the evening while being with friends, saying that she'd send me a message, and then just ignoring it. And with the way she replied, it didn't seem she'd forgotten it - just ignored it "because it became so late". To me, this is not acceptable. I prioritize my time depending on my appointments with others. As such, I see it as a basic requirement to communicate the moment you know you can't make an appointment with somebody, and not make firm appointments unless you're fairly sure you'll make them. To me, that's an absolutely essential part of respect for other people. What do y'all think? I have a hunch that this vary depending on age and gender, so if you're comfortable with it, please state your age and gender when you reply. I'm male and 31.
