How could you really do that to any individual... | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/5/2009 10:10:41 PM | I am guessing you had finished dinner? Just being nosy. I have read it on these threads before, but it never ceases to amaze me that that can happen. The last similar story was a guy that's date went to the rest room and tm'd him that she wasn't coming back. I thought he may have been too forward, just trying to figure out what could have happened. That probably offended the guy with that suggestion. In trying to figure out what happened with you, what other details are there. Do you have recent pictures, who chose the place, could he have gotten an emergency call, was he able to talk to you I.E. was he really insecure? If you don't answer my million questions, that is kewl, I really am just wondering how or why that keeps happening.
I am happy for you, you found out right away he was jerk. Hopefully this means your next date will really rock! | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/5/2009 10:18:11 PM | Wow, that sucks! At least he didn't leave you with the check.
Maybe you were gone too long and he was afraid you'd buzzed out the back window of the ladies' room? I've heard of that happening, too.
Edit: Just read what eschec mat posted before me. I've heard lots of those tales, too! Looks like women *might* even be a little more to blame for this kind of thing than men...dare I say it?

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/5/2009 10:21:14 PM | Wow! Another woman recently started a thread about the very same subject. This happened to her also. She didn't have a way home though, and had to call someone to come and pick her up. I cannot believe a grown man would treat a woman so badly. How difficult is it to say that you just don't think you are a match?
Was this the first time you met each other or had you met before? Next time, be sure you just meet for a brief period to see if both of you want to go on a real date.
Fortunately, the majority of men would never consider behaving in such a manner. | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/6/2009 12:24:15 AM | I'm not as nice as zoieflame was, His screen name would have been posted as a warning for other ladies. I would post only facts. (SO N SO) LEFT WHILE I WAS IN THE RESTROOM. And then i would tell him where he can find the post at to post his side of the events. Your right, nothing he could say would excuse his rudeness.
 As for you edencapwell, Your post was not needed, nor asked for. In fact it was just as rude to zoieflame as this man was to her. If you cant be nice, don't post. Find something elso to read. And next time you feel like being rude, take your PMS'g single butt to the bar so the next lady you mouth off to can kick it. Come back here and post the event so we can laugh and say "hasn't this been discussed to death already?? i think i see the same post every week. "  | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/6/2009 12:32:01 AM | | A former work buddy of mine did that 1ce. He only dated this women cuz he was hoping to "get-laid" after but during the meal, he started to feel bad about it so he just bailed instead. Odd thing is I think he started having feelings for her & I think he wanted something more but the jerk didn't realize it all till it was to late to fix his screw-up. | |

Sounds like he was a little coward. I'd say more than a little. And also quite immature for his age too. Nobody deserves to be treated that way, no matter how they've behaved (not saying OP did anything wrong). Just that whatever he was thinking or feeling, he could have at least said thank you for taking the time to meet but I'll respectfully continue my search.
OP, I'm so sorry you met a bad apple, but at least you can be glad his character shone brightly from the start. | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/6/2009 2:38:39 AM | | Maybe you don't look like your picture, so he decided to get you back, or maybe he's just a jerk. We weren't there and have no idea what went on between the two of you. Sometimes the only way to deal with the uncivil is to leave, do you think that in any way you may have been so rude that he wanted to give some back to you? I know that there are almost always two sides to every story, I wonder what his is. | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/6/2009 3:20:40 AM | I have never ditched a boring date in such a rude way. I did ditch a home dinner date when I found on the sink in the restroom of the guy anti-infectives (antibiotics) for gonorrhea (guess he forgot to mention that to me, and so glad I wait to have sex). I carefully walked out the front door while he was in the kitchen, and ran!  | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/6/2009 3:30:41 AM | Unfortunately, this is all too common -- from both genders. I've heard of people sneaking out of bathroom windows, walking away when the other person left the room, bolting at first sight ...
I guess it's just easier for some folks to be completely rude and inconsiderate than to politely say "Sorry, but this isn't going to work for me."
Sorry for your experience. | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/6/2009 4:43:17 AM | Wow, I just can't imagine doing that to someone. I'm sorry that happened to you OP. It seems to me, if you guys had made it through dinner together, sticking around for the few minutes it took for the two of you to leave together to forever go your seperate ways, wouldn't have been so bad or taken much longer. When you say you were at the point in your date where you were feeling pretty good, does that mean you might have been a bit intoxicated? Not accusing, just asking. If so, maybe that's why he left so abruptly? I dunno.
For the poster objecting to this thread because it seems redundant. The OP is just writing about her dating experience, on the Dating Experiences board, she's not asking for any advice or giving any advice, just puttin' it out there. Seems reasonable to me. | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/6/2009 5:12:19 AM | | I try to find the good in everyone, I truly do, but that? Yeah he did pay the check, but what did you order? Not the point I know!!! Sorry..That is a low dirty shame, Did he leave his Testies as a tip? Sounds like they have been removed to me..Anyone else agree? Now that guys name needs to be up in big shining lights for all to see..Maybe he will grow a pair..Sorry Mamn, I really am, trust me all guys arent like that | |

| left Posted: 7/6/2009 6:18:28 AM | Well. You were already dressed up to the nines, on the town, after dinner... and somewhat upset .. I hope you took his profile picture to the nearest sports bar, posted it over darts board and had some fun with it..

How embarrassing for you - I would've felt like crawling under the table.
Thanks for sharing your story, though - that's even better than this one guy I met that looked just like Gollum from Lord of the Rings.  | |

| Left me sitting at the table, until the waitress said, he left.. Posted: 7/6/2009 7:46:31 AM | I always just thought it was a joke that someone would run out on a person during a "date" - the stories of someone kicking out a bathroom window and running were just a joke from a sitcom or a movie . I didn't think it really happened.
Sorry that it happened to you, but atleast you know now how he feels and thank god he paid. That's the least he should have done for his crappy behavior. | |
