Hi fabbers,
So I've been on this site nearly ten years, swinging for almost twice that time and like many of you I've had some really crap excuses over that time from folks (ok mainly guys!) for not turning up despite seeming genuine. It's especially galling when you go to a lot of effort to organise a party or a meet isn't it so what is the shittest most pathetic excuse you have had for someone not turning up and in my experience this is usually just a short time before they are due?
My favourite was a guy who texted.he was outside but couldn't find the right door when his profile indicated he was on the other side of the country ... |

Ha yeah they're good too I genuinely has some guy tell me he had to take his budgie to the vets (this was at night) but could I send him pics and he'll come next time .... Yeah that went straight to block  |

"I don't get excuses, they just stand me up."
This 
I generally meet in one of the local coffee shops so when they stand me up I reach for the laptop and pretend I'm having a working lunch  |

"An excuse would be nice! Sudden deathly silence and a newly hidden profile on the day of the meet isn't the best feeling :/
L x"
Yes sadly that's the most common response if you can call it that. Closely followed by blocking you abruptly. |

Reminds me of a guy I used to work with..
He didn't come into work one day. His excuse the next day was that. He had left his Windows open that night and his house had filled with fog so couldn't see to get out of the house or find his keys.. haha |

"I did genuinely have to cancel once as I had locked myself in my house. The key broke in the lock  "
Thing is there are genuine reasons I know life gets in the way of play sometimes but I think a genuine person will explain that and most folks will give them one more chance ...

That he hadnt been able to get away from work but would be able to come that evening.
Which was all well and good but he was 4 hrs late when I got that message and he had been stupid enough to post a veri which said....what a saturday afternoon. Im still panting etc etc
He had found a better fab meet on his way to mine. |

I feel sorry for the number of Grandma's who suddenly die just before a meet. Lesson to be learned: if you have a grandma with a dodgy ticker don't post a meet. We all know the outcome! |

I got stood up by a guy and rang him from the pub we'd arranged to meet in. He was still in bed with the woman he'd met the night before. He invited me round to join in. I declined. |

Agreed, there are genuine reasons and things happen.
On the other hand some do tell way too many fibs on fabs. |

Their loss ;+)
Doesn't feel like that when I'm sat in the pub on my tod."
I know that feeling too but it really is their loss .. they've passed up the chance to get to know a sexy woman and if you click it could lead to sex magic .. yeah it really is their loss |

Very similar thing happened to me.
He fancied himself as a bit of a player. In truth, he was way out of his depth.
I didnt decline. I played along. Fed his ego
THEN went for the throat
Egotistical cunt
He even made me say the grown up words, and I'm usually such a lady |

My very first fab meet I was waiting in a pub and got a text to say he'd lost his shoe. Then ten minutes later that he'd found it but missed his train in the process.
I believed him, got a book out to entertain myself and got a couple of pints in. He arrived thirty minutes later and didn't even have to go the bar first. I think losing a shoe constitutes a lame excuse, even if it was the truth. |
