Meet a member online we had 3 long phone conversations, made plans for a Saturday night picked place everything but the time - we both had to work that day. He called to confirm Friday night.
Said he would call when he got off work on Saturday...no call @ 8:00 I left him a message on his home phone, wasn't rude just said it was late so I made other plans (always a plan B) he called early the next morning, explaining he got stuck at work and didn't have my number it was at home, believe that we only talked from his home number. He called from his work number the next morning. Don't want to be jerked around do I give him a 2nd chance?

Yes, I'd give him a 2nd chance.

But, I'd be suspect that the reason he didn't call was that something else came "up", meaning another girl. Someone probably called him and asked him to go do something, so he did, and he didn't have as good of a time as he thought he would, hence, he called you the next morning.

Go, but go with caution.

I've been in this situation ... had Saturday overtime available, so I took it. Expected to be there 8 hours, turned into 12 (I had her information, though, and called before leaving and we met later than planned.)

I would probably give a woman a second chance, but I would not trust her readily until she proved herself.

Good Advice Ya'll - the other thing is after he mentioned several times he would be early the next time, I asked him what made him think there would be a next time....he seemed offended that I would even consider that I had a choice? What's up with that?

The offense that he took may indicate that he truly did get stuck at work, and he's offended that you are doubting him. And that he truly did leave your number at home, and he really does look forward to seeing you. It's like you're calling him a liar, and he's confused and a bit ticked because it's not true.

He does sound a bit defensive, but I would reserve all judgment until after you've met.

Meet him, and let us know how it went!
