Has anyone here ever been dating someone who's flaky? Cancelling on the day or even last minute?


I don't feel like continue dating someone's flaky .. would it be so wrong?

Heck no! Why would you want to date someone who had a habit of cancelling, especially at the last minute. It would make me very suspicious, unless there was a very good reason, like fire or bleeding all over everything.

If you don't want to continue dating someone there isn't a wrong reason. They are flaky, they're a Republican, they talk funny, their hair is weird, they are all valid reasons, if something bothers you about someone, there is no reason you should "have" to keep dating them. For me flakiness isn't that big a deal.

It does happen every once in awhile where things come up, but if it's constant, I'd stop dating the person. Going on a date takes preparation and scheduling time and it shows an appreciation for being asked out by getting ready and making that time . . . someone calls and cancels the same day or 5 minutes before then it's an insult and it's rude. So no, I don't think it's wrong.

There is a button at the bottom of your page that allows you to edit mistake even after a post is submitted...


As has been written above, you can stop seeing someone for any reason, any time. It is somewhat rude to cancel the day of the date without good reason...


Flaky is as flaky does... (or thinks.)

i have a few guy friends that have the habit of cancelling at the the last minute and not telling anyone, keeping the rest of us waiting. then they are surprised and wonder why i never call them again to ask if they want to go out and do something.

Security is an issue. I give up any information that will put a matches mind at ease that I'm not an axe murderer... The internet will inform them that I prefer death by feathers...

OK LSS, googling your match is a complete different story than being flaky? Or is it not? :P
