"Would you give someone a 3rd chance if you’ve planned to meet with them twice previously and they cancelled last minute on both occasions?"
Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me springs to mind here. |

Nope they wouldn’t even get a second chance
I one give one Chance or in less they a regular
I understand things can crop up so if I have meet them before I will let them off with a warring and tell them not to make a habit off it
But other then that nope first meet one chance |

It would depend on how well I know them and if they have ongoing issues in their life.
If it was a random, then no. Saying that, I once fell for it 13 times with someone not from here  |

Maybe, some people are genuinely scatty and disorganised but still worth it. Just be realistic, they are likely to change. First impressions count for a reason. |

When it's happened to me it's been an absolute no. Not shaving my fanny THREE times for nothing!
It depends on what the reasons are and how well you know each other, whether you've previously met etc. though. |

A lot would depend on the circumstances, if life got in the way, and I had got a message to say such, I could accept that, if they just didn't show up, which I seem to be getting a lot of at the moment, then no second chance, let alone a third |

"Once I could forgive but not twice.
What was the reason for the second cancellation?"
First time was baby sitter had to go to hospital with asthma attack. Second was no contact from said lady until 6pm and apparently she had been try all day and couldn’t get ahold of the babysitter until then at which time they said they’re not going to do it. (Babysitter is sister) |

Do you have 100% proof telephone call or ideally a video call to know your actually engaging with a woman?

Probably not to be fair, once you can understand but twice is definitely taking the piss |

Of course not.
That's not giving them a chance. It's being a mug. |

Luckily for us a lovely man who we had to let down a couple of times before (due to family commitments) , has persevered and I (Mrs) finally managed to meet him for a coffee. A meet has now been arranged for later in the week.  |

I had a meet that had to be postponed twice. One by me, once by them. Third time, we meet and they were worth waiting for. |

At the end of the day , you have more knowledge of her than us and have to decide what YOU want to do going forward what others say or believe is really irrelevant |

Has she offered to help with those wasted costs? (due to her last minute cancellations)

Nope, even if she got cold feet before hand and just was honest at least I could’ve tried cancelling or at least using it myself |

I doubt it very much. I think the second time is the time when peoples confidence needs to be built up again, imagine taking the piss out of someone, twice? I wouldn’t do it, so I don’t want it done to me. |
