So here's a story that happened to me recently:
I matched with this girl on Hinge that was quite cute, and seemed to be responsive and high interest. Given the recent drop in OLD quality (as I saw some of you were discussing in another thread), I got excited and proposed a date for the coming Saturday, to which she agreed. Saturday afternoon arrives and she messages me saying she needs to reschedule, because she had a health thing with her dad. The weather was bad that day which made suspicious it might have been an excuse, but since she was apologetic and offered to reschedule, I did not get bitter about it. I told her it was cool, (even though she canceled just an hour before the date), and we rescheduled for the next day, Sunday.
Sunday arrives and we are all set for the date, we even confirmed it before I took the bus to get to the date location, a bar downtown. She was gonna drive from the suburbs. To get downtown I needed to change buses. I got on the second bus stop on time and was waiting for the bus to arrive. Some stupid delay happened and, even though the bus was expected to arrive in 2 min at the stop, that route suddenly 'disappeared' and then I had to wait another 25 min for it to actually arrive. (yay US transit system...!) It was ****ed up but the best I could do at that moment was arrive 15 min late for the date. I messaged her apologizing and telling her I would arrive with this delay.
As I was about to finally arrive to the bar (with this 15 min delay), I messaged her again to ask if she had arrived, only to find out she had blocked me in all platforms...! OK, I get it, arriving late for a date is not cool at all, I have actually never done this before. But given that I had a valid excuse and, more importantly, that she canceled on me last minute the day before, I expected some more understanding on her part. Instead she just blocked me and fu*ked off.
Whatever, I was honestly not too bitter about it. Just a bit disappointed because I have never been late for a date in my life, and sh1t happened with the cutest chick I matched on Hinge this year. Also a bit annoyed because I prioritized her over another girl I met in real life the same period, that has kinda gotten cold now.
Anyway, lesson learned..Weird experience overall for sure.
