Posted: 3/10/2006 9:52:10 AM | What I find disturbing is that ppl have no qualms whatsoever about casting judgement upon this woman based on the version of one man without even having to hear her side at all. Thank God that our laws don't work like this.
Did you miss the stated facts, familyman?
1) She was chatting with him right up until the last minute before he left to go and meet her - if she wasn't planning on following through, she could have just told him - so that he didn't waste his time, nerve and gas. There's no excuse for leading a guy (or person) on like this. She had up until the last minute to come clean and tell him she wouldn't be meeting him - with a whole list of possible reasons (she was too nervous, she met someone else, she was terribly constipated, she couldn't afford gas money, she was offended or concerned by something he'd said (typed) to her and changed her mind about meeting, etc etc etc).
2) She didn't even have the common courtesy to apologize. How much effort or decency or courage does it take to type a quick apology? No, instead she just blocked him - without any explanation of any kind - not even affording him the opportunity to ask why she stood him up.
It's based on these facts alone that she's being judged.
Can you provide good solid reasons why she may have been justified to lead him on until the very last minute, stand him up and then block him? I'll be looking forward to your response. | |

Posted: 3/10/2006 10:03:08 AM | | How can I provide the reasons if I wasn't there. My point was that it is improper to rush to judgement until you have both sides of the coin. My advice to him was to move on. As for the rest, I reserve my opinion. If you don't agree that is your prerogative. | |

Posted: 3/10/2006 10:25:23 AM | Well, it's certainly true that there's a lesson to be learned for this man.
And I definately agree that Revenge or retribution is a bad idea.
As for this poor, defenseless, unrepresented woman....
She blocked the guy, and offered no apology...therefore the court finds for the Plaintiff by default.

Rudeness is not illegal,

I change my mind about meeting you,you wanna sue me?!?

Posted: 3/10/2006 10:36:12 AM | | Uh gee, Sasquatch - did I ever state it was against the law to be rude or stand someone up? No, I did not. A person has the right to change their mind about meeting someone, for sure, but at least have some freaking class and human decency and let the person know in advance, so that they don't waste their time going to meet when you have no intention of being there. Frig, how hard is that to understand? How much effort does it take to write the person prior to meeting to say something simple like "sorry, I changed my mind, I do not wish to meet you"? - if you don't want to share your reasons, that's your choice but don't be a nasty b*tch and lead the guy on and leave him sitting there like a dork waiting for you. God there's some clueless women in this world - of course I'm sure they'd be the first to have hissy fits if this was done to them - and then they'd be next in line to start a male-bashing thread. *rolls eyes* | |

Posted: 3/10/2006 10:40:48 AM | Sienna, I think this is just the way the world is going!
More and more people are just celebrating evil and nastiness and if someone is victimized, they are obviously weak and survival of the fittest.
The more we become this as a society, the more we don't deserve the comforts of a civilized world.
People at large are just animals, behaving like animals...sooner or later we will all be living like animals once again.
You nailed it about Sasquatch there, it is inevitable that the same scenario will happen to him as you say, he will be outraged and wonder if there's any justice in this world.

Posted: 3/10/2006 11:37:08 AM | hey Sunfish..."She got kicks out of fooling me, and then she blocked me after the gig was up. It was intentional!!!!!"
So..now that you know what kind of person she is, what do you really care? I mean, was she that special that you now want to exact revenge on her by posting her name on the forums? Who cares... She'll get hers one day...remember, "what goes around, comes around"!
She isn't worth the time it took u to post this forum my friend! | |

Posted: 3/10/2006 12:00:57 PM | | Sasquatch - maybe your skin is thicker than some here? I'm not even sure you're qualified to really comment - considering you're reportedly in a serious relationship with someone you met here (who's also a regular here). ?? | |

Posted: 3/10/2006 12:56:27 PM | | sienna Since when does someone being involved make them unqualified to comment on a thread? He IS in a serious relationship with me. And? There are several regular posters who are involved, some married. If you choose to not read our posts because you consider we're unqualified, fine. | |

Posted: 3/10/2006 1:32:38 PM | | bucsgirl - what I was alluding to was something along the lines of this -- it's like a single person who's frustrated with meeting/dating deadbeats expressing their sheer frustration to a married friend and that married friend responding with something trite like "there there now, being single can't be all that bad!" or "come on now, there's got to be TONS of great single guys (or gals) out there!" It's hard to appreciate the frustration that singles face when you're happily involved with someone, that's all I was saying. | |

Posted: 3/10/2006 1:38:24 PM | | sienna I still have single friends that come to me for advice that are frustrated. I wouldn't dream of giving advice like that anyway. I spent many years single before Sas and I got together. I remember it all too well, just because i don't have to go through it doesn't mean I can't relate. If it's something i can't relate to I don't post. | |

Posted: 3/10/2006 1:42:57 PM | | So bucsgirl, an interesting question for you, then. Do you feel it's right for a male or female to go to the trouble of leading someone on, right up until the very last minute, that you'll be meeting them - and then not showing up, no explanation ,no apology, just blocking them. Yes yes, I know, sh*t happens and you've gotta move past it - that's a given - but aside from that, had someone done this to you when you were single, would you have felt it was that guy's prerogative to do such a thing? | |

Posted: 3/10/2006 4:12:42 PM | Is that right...HECK NO! Has it been done to me? Well not that exactly, I have had people who I was corresponding with just disappear. Many times over. I had one guy who "persued" me for 3 years with no meeting! Yes, I was on and off of a certain site. Put up a profile, got bored, whatever, took it off. I'm a direct, get down to it, meet or forget it. He had my email and phone no. But as soon as I'd put up a profile, bam, he'd be all excited, good to see you again, what's going on...blah blah gag...as soon as I'd try to pin him down to meet. POOF! Repeat cycle. I don't even want to begin to waste the time to think why. Doesn't matter, I commented to him the last time he did another "recontact" (which I did a thread about here). It's been 3 years, apparently not enough interest to meet, so.......see ya! Not mad not angry not bitter, but not going to waste my time either. I have first date horror stories that would make you roll on the ground laughing, not funny at the time, but laughed later.
It's noone's perogative to treat someone badly, but it happens. Sooner or later, internet or face to face. I've had phone messages unreturned emails unread. I just shrug it off. And most importantly, I didn't settle. I met Sas when I wasn't looking, really just not even interested in meeting or going out, I was into the forums and enjoying many wonderful people I'd met there. We just kind of bumped into each other.
Noone should tolerate behavior that isn't acceptable. Stuff does happen and at certain times with 4 kids at home, working and going to school fulltime I never stood anyone up. Ever. If I had to cancel because something happened, there was either an email or phone call or both. I would never subject anyone to sitting somewhere waiting for me. That's never happened. I have to live with myself so I treat everyone as best as I can with respect. I don't toy with people or their emotions and feelings for my amusement. I have better things to do. If I feel someone's toying with me, well hello I know where the block delete functions are and have no qualms using them.
Did that answer your question?
edit: Lazyboy...wasn't overlooking your question. Hmm...look at his profile and mine. Don't have to read the whole thing, he's better at doing the pic thing than I am. | |

Posted: 10/18/2009 7:38:56 PM | | I sent a person a letter that I pre wrote, now grant it I should have read all of her profile. She has a hole page of things mostly showing off her intelligence witch I believe to be something she has prewritten. She complained that my letter was a classic example of, a copy and paste , and that I should read profiles first, and that I should'nt talk about myself, She blocked me after the insulting letter. I just want to say that anyone who insults you then blocks you is a coward. And if you think you are to good for average people then you shouldn be aloud to be on this sight. This is just my opinion thats all and thats supposed to be OK on here. this is what forums are all about, voicing your opinion. Thank you | |
