I've(M30) been sorta talking to this girl(26) I met from Tinder for the past 30 days. We will call her S. The first date went well with us fooling around in my car. Tried to bring S back to my place but she had to get home. Strike 1: A few days later I asked S out again and we had to date set on a weekday. The day of the date I asked if she was still down for that night. She said that she was but she wasn't sure if she was going to make it on time because of traffic and plus she will need to get ready. I understood and told her that's fine just let me know. 2 hours after our schueduled date she contacts me saying that she's finally home but she should be ready in another hour, if I still wanted to hangout. I already found other plans and told her let's reschedule for another time.
​
Strike 2: We agreed to meet up on another weekday. The day of the date S text me saying that she "has to go with her dad to take her car to the shop." No reschedule or anything. I simply said "no worries, maybe some other time."
​
Strike 3: This happened this past weekend. I was out with a couple friends bar hopping. It was about 1am and I was ready to wrap it up and head home. Out of the blue, S texts me saying that she "wants to see me" and 'do other sexual related stuff." She didn't know the exact address where she was at but she sent me a pinpoint on where she was. It was only about 15 min uber ride and I got to her area exactly when I said I was. I texted her several times and called but no answer. I tried one more time before heading home and she picked up the phone and said "she was at the door." I texted her saying that I still couldn't find you and for her to come out. Nothing after that. And she continued not to answer for the rest of the night. I got fed up and left.
​
The next morning I received several texts from S explaining how sorry she was, that she was really drunk and it's not an excuse, I know you don't wanna talk to me but you deserve an apology. I responded 3 hours later and simply said "no worries." Blocked her phone number and deleted her off all other social media. Did I overreact?

Three strikes in a row is worthy of a block. Maybe if they were spaced out in between smash sessions. Don’t look back. This girl wasn’t that into you. You were prob her third option that last night.
friendandadvisor 5y ago
Yeah, she may have even texted you that night in front of her boyfriend to make him jealous.

You gotta wait a week for these Tinder THOTs
Don't ask, lead. Say "Tonight's gonna be fun. See you at T"
You should have immediately canceled. If she's not enthusiastic and prepared to follow your schedule, tell her "no problem. If you can't make it at T then let's try another day"
Good
On a flake like that, I wouldn't mention a reschedule, just "kk"
She should have been the one in the Uber, not you
Good. I woulda done that after the first flake
aresvlight 5y ago
Solid advice. I highly agree on the bringing her to him part.
markinsinz7 5y ago
what? Won't they have long forgotten u by then? Or moved on to some other dick
boy_named_su 5y ago
Not if you show her a real good time. They'll get mad at you but will still see you again
BusterVadge 5y ago
Maybe but on the other hand who cares? The ones who do remember you will be a sure thing.
RedSkeller 5y ago
I think you handled it well, the Uber thing sounded very lame on her part but in the future you can prevent it with just having her come to you. Never go to them or chase them, make them put in the effort.
Backthatpassup451 5y ago
Yea I agree I didn’t handle that part well. I was drunk and horny and made a mistake on doing that.
VasiliyZaitzev 5y ago
So first, don’t over invest in little Tinderellas. Second, ” did I overreact?” sounds a lot like ”Would I have gotten pussy if I had given her one more shot?”
You didn’t overreact, because the value of Tinderellas is near zero. This would be more clear for you if you were operating from a position of abundance.
This girl basically wasted your time twice, and then got you to hop in an Uber to come over to wherever she was, so she could waste your time some more. Generally allow one reschedule, and after that shits over.

True. I will start doing that with future women. I was just over it and reacted on impulse.
Charlie_007 5y ago
This is honestly the exact type of grilling you don’t want in your life. She is trouble
HurricaneHugues 5y ago
When will u guys learn your fucking lesson? When will u grow a spine and some self respect? Does she literally have to spit on your face for you to draw a line? Stop letting people fuck with you and your time. Stop letting bitches get away with shit behavior. A girl who disrespects u like that doesn't deserve your time. It doesn't matter if u feel lile you're the one winning if u end up pumping and dumping her later. The problem is that even after she put u through all that bullshit, u still gave her access to you
MattyAnon Admin 5y ago
This is spot on
Toxik6 5y ago
I think this is the best answer because it promotes better self worth.
moltenw 5y ago
I kinda agree, though I do think that hitting them up 2 times is fine, but more than that? Smells like scarcity, like you don't value yourself enough. Even if she does agree to meet up after 3-4 tries, you could have spent that time doing something or someone else.
Don't tolerate bad behaviour
markinsinz7 5y ago
True this comment gives a superior mindset. But fact is many many guys all the way to 95th percentile don't have that kind of abundance to say fuck off completely like that.
Including me. Trust me the games way harder now. Pre fb insta tinder era yea u cud do this shitt. Now it's nuts. When u see Chad's forgiving hoes what ya gonna do
HurricaneHugues 5y ago
It doesn't matter if you don't actually have another option available. Cultivate some self respect. You think that kind of mentality stops at dating? No it affects every other aspect of your life. Don't take shit from people and learn to walk away even if you're notbsure you're going. Abundance isn't about having other options. Abundance is about knowing the worth of the hard work you put into yourself so far in life, and knowing that whatever situation you're in right now, you know you can do better. Better may come today, or tomorrow, or next month etc, but better will come regardless. Stop trying to branch swing from plate to plate all because you're desperate for pussy and dont want to be alone. That's a female's game.

Blocking her you just seem kiddo and needy like
i want fuck you, you don't? im gonna blocking you
for what reason?
Blocking is for kids, ignoring is for men
friendandadvisor 5y ago
It's easy to say "I'm going to ignore the slut" but, IRL, it isn't always easy. Sure, sure, for the great Alphas, we can all just breeze through a dozen calls from Ivanka, or Kate Upton, but, it's like alcohol for others...always lurking...
Musicgoon 5y ago
I don't think you fucked up bro. She sounds flaky and shitty. She's a hot mess and can't manage her time. And when things go to shit she bails like a coward.
I would say that saying, "No worries", is doing her a disservice. If some chick disrespects you like this again. Let her know you don't tolerate that lack of respect after the second time. First could be a one off shit happens...
Third time ghost block and next. No explanations. You're better than to tolerate this behavior.
HurricaneHugues 5y ago
You wasted way too much time. A week is the most you should give a tinder girl that u haven't fucked yet. After that its all a waste of time. And in being really really generous with the week here, 4-5 days shoukd be enough time to smash. If it doesnt happen, delete texts and number, and unmatch.
MattyAnon Admin 5y ago
You're right to present a carefree attitude, but wrong to add "maybe some other time". This cements you as the hopeful chaser and her as the prize. Just say "no problem" or "no worries" and leave it at that. Leave it for her to worry if you want to see her or not.
Ten or twenty little frame breaks like this throughout your texting with her is enough to kill attraction.
Be more difficult about meeting up with flakey people. You gotta bounce it right back. She says she's going to be late you take it a step further: you don't reply. She cancels a date you take it a step further: no reply, invite her out next time, then YOU cancel. You can even set up a date that you know you can't make, just so you can cancel it later.
Don't be too accommodating to her, it just reeks of low value. Have more of a "take it or leave it" attitude.
I think she was completely playing you here.... trying to get a ride home. Probably sent the same text to ten guys, went with the first to show up.
No, your problem is that you underreacted throughout. You've been TOO NICE from the start, and it turned her off.
On the other hand, she sounds like a fucking pain, you're better off rid.
In future: two strikes max.
onpuzzle 5y ago
No
beginner_ 5y ago
Overreacted or not doesn't matter. Just learn from this. Strike 2 is when you should have ghosted. I mean even the excuse with traffic was lame but possible. The real killer is offering no alternative. A girl with even just mild interest will do so. If she doesn't, ghost. 0 interest.
Strike 3: Complete lack of abundance entering her frame. Wouldn't even surprise me if this was a joke with her friends "let's see if I can lure him to some random place". You were on your way home. That is were you wanted to go. So either say you are done for the night or tell her to come over to your place. But don't enter her frame. you just experienced how that will end up. You wasting money (and time) on uber and looking like a fool.
BusterVadge 5y ago
Usually I give a woman a second chance. Things can and will pop up but 2 times and they're not attracted or there is so much drama in her life that plating her isn't worth it. But 3 hours late on strike 1? Fuck that. Tells me she's at the very best a poor planner.
ChadFromColumbus 5y ago
Three strikes is more than enough. I still would have told her “come over and make it up to me” but nothing wrong with what you did.
_Neon_Shadow_ 5y ago
Good job.
Charlie_007 5y ago
You made yourself seem a little desperate on strike three, ubering out to her And then wandering around trying to find her. Next time make her come to you, especially if she pulled all that other shit before
Blazer2100 5y ago
The first strike wasn’t even a strike. You made other plans. Like some others said, you probably aren’t the first option. Best to take this experience and apply it to another prospective plate.
ChadTheWaiter100 5y ago
Hell naw bro you killed it. Impeccable frame with the “no worries” comment. I lol’d. excellent job.
eddielovett 5y ago
Telling her no worries and then blocking is childish, should’ve just ghosted her.
Backthatpassup451 5y ago
How is it childish when she pulled the same thing 3 times in a row? I lost the attraction and felt like it just wasn’t worth it.
eddielovett 5y ago
So because she’s also childish it somehow means you’re not...
You can ghost her without being passive aggressive about it. In the end this is nitpicking it’s not a huge deal of difference just making a minor critique.
MajIssuesCaptObvious 5y ago
It's a little passive aggressive. No big deal in the grand scheme of things, but next time a woman acts like that just say ok and ghost her.
