If someone was chatting to you on here for a few months and you arranged a meet and they cancelled with an half baked excuse few hours before would you give them a second chance ?

Depends on if you liked them beforehand, and if you think they’re players or time wasters?

I used to as I feel that in general people deserve a second chance. And accidents/ flat tyres/ babysitters not turning up... this does happen. It is possible.

If the excuse sounds half baked - that is a different story and no, I would not. It would result in a block.

I used to but now its kind of a red flag, if they are flaky at the beginning they probably will be throughout

I'd just go with my gut - do I think they're at it and how much do I care? I'm the world's worst for having to cancel so I can't really judge anyone!

At least they let you know, that in my books is worth a second chance as shit happens. Though, I would be wary the next time.

If it's just a no show though, then no second chances.

Although, saying that if I actually had a few people interested in me, those would probably take priority.

I wouldn't have been chatting for a few months. I meet within 2 weeks of the first message or not at all.

I've had an outlandish excuse for someone cancelling a meet before. I met him later and his reason was actually true. Weird... but true.

I am very forgiving

Depends how you get on with them and if you think they’re genuine. We all have lives to lead so if it sounds like a genuine reason then yes I would.

This is our take. Anyone who didn’t show without letting us know never gets a second chance.

Depends if it’s a first meet then no never

If we had meet before then yes as I can understand things in real life crop up

But if they make a habit off it would have to tell them it’s been fun but sorry pulled out off meets to meny times x

"If someone was chatting to you on here for a few months and you arranged a meet and they cancelled with an half baked excuse few hours before would you give them a second chance ?"

The crux of the matter here id suggest is the " half baked"

By that I assume its in line with "can't come now the cat looks poorly" and not "ive just found out I'm sars 2 positive"

This must have happened quite a while back are you still chatting what did you decide

Sorry if I've wrongly assumed this is a personal experience op and not just a conversation piece

If you have previously blocked him then trust yourself, keep him blocked.

We all know genuine reasoning for cancelling happen, but if it is a half baked excuse and you don’t believe it then it is a cue for you to move on.

We don't meet anyone we haven't chatted to for a good while first. If the chat doesn't flow or the contact fizzles out we view it as the best possible indication that we're not suited. We also only meet socially the first time and find that puts off anyone who's here for loads of one-offs with no intention of anything regular. Yes, we've had to cancel at late notice a couple of times over the years but because we'd got to know those guys quite well by that time, they believed us and went on to become regular partners. We'd tend to give the benefit of the doubt once but twice in a row and that would be that.

I met a couple here not long after I joined. Actually, they were my first meet from fab. They were 50 miles away, but I was happy to travel. Had two meets, and arranged a third. A few days before the third meet, I message to apologise, as I'd be unable to make the date.

They were totally understanding... and blocked me.

Nope - don’t lie to me about stupid shit init. Be an adult & upfront with me and I’ll accept it. But try bull me, nope.

Unless there’s a valid excuse - then id just wish them well and probably not talk to them again

Hmmm.... It depends. I’m guessing if you’d been chatting to him for a while then there was something you liked and a connection had been established.

I’d be tempted to give him another chance on the understanding that if it happens again he’s history.

I always arrange a meet to coincide with something else ( shopping etc) so I have a back up plan, so far to date I've not needed it but there is always the first time

Yes I would give a second chance as I know how quickly plans can change with work, kids, life etc.

If I found out he had cancelled me for another meet then

No. I'm not a fan of second chances altogether. I don't believe people change. They just get more clever pretending they have good intentions. Must come with experience over the years.

You can normally tell if it's genuine but at the very most I gave 2 chances after that you go on the block pile

Yes. If they told me as soon as they could.

They'd have to re arrange though .....

One chance if they seem genuine.

There are no second chances.
