Forget them
Report them
Block them and move on.
As a couple it’s a lot easier as we can arrange a plan B and as such are never twiddling our thumps.
For example we have 4/5 days in Worthing coming up and any socials will be arranged at a restaurant or somewhere we would go anyway so if they don’t turn up it’s no loss.
Chin up op and best of luck.

I've said it before on another thread, but some people have no manners at all. If you can't make a meet , contact the other party - end of. There is no reason for not contacting.
Personally I'd like to name and shame folks like that LOL
Agree with others : report, block as and move on - it's all you can do

Sorry to hear. It doesn't get better even after you've met them sometimes. I'm supposed to have a meet tonight but the guy is ghosting me. We've met a few times though. Go figure! |

I 'd say if somebody is disrespectful enough to stand you up, you had a lucky escape perhaps. It kind of means they lied to you by agreeing to meet and not turning up.
Block and move on. |

That is horrible, too. I would not give a second chance there. Sorry to hear that. |

Name & shame? So it doesn’t happen to others?
Just remind yourself that fab is just fun and that you can keep smiling and move in to the next meet. Annoying yes but you will find someone who won’t mess you about … PMA |

Name and shame won't be allowed. As it's open to abuse
Too easy for me to say "MrAverage failed to meet me for a pint. Time waster"
But would love for there to be a way of doing it. Like a button on fab that says "am meeting" and if both click, then you know it's legit feedback. |

I've had that so I assumed he'd lost interest and ignored him as well but then 6mths later he popped up again asking for a meet! |

Some don’t get back at all….I don’t understand why people do that. Is it not just easier saying what you have in your head and just moving on. Annoys the fuck out of me |

The cheek of them to come back after acting like that. |

Yeah the abuse thing is hard to overcome. Block and move on is all we got for now |

Had it happen so many times that I rarely get ready until the absolute last minute now. Unfortunately nothing you can do but block and move on and not let it put you off, there are some genuine people put there x |

Id always make date/meet one low key to avoid spending too much time getting ready. But as a guy getting ready really means putting shoes on.

It's disgusting OP. I hope you've kept your spirits up, you deserve better.
Get a confirmation chat plan in future, so that if they don't message, you get a heads up, if you've not already done something similar. |

It really annoys me too as it shows so little respect. Whatever the reason is, just own it! |

These things happen. But I think it's wrong to 'report them' as such. |

Thanks for the replies, disheartening, tough enough for single guys on here already without timewasters but not going to give up. Took the opportunity to have a look round the area while i was there so made the best of it. Wonder if they were there and just watching and laughing at me while i caught up on my emails and drinking my coffee. If they were they need to get a life |

There could be a number of reasons for this. Medical emergency? Freak yachting accident? Dog ate their homework! Or of course, they could be just one of those time waster people. If there was a genuine reason, maybe they will message you later with a grovelling apology/excuse. If not, chin up and carry on. It’s obviously not you, it’s them.
One of the advantages of only meeting groups of course is that if one or two guys evaporate, our time and effort does not get wasted. They usually message a few months later to be reminded of their no show and then blocked. |
