Did you ever miss a date with your girlfriend or boyfriend unintentionally?

Yes, everybody makes mistakes, but your significant other SHOULD have been ticked. I am sorry, but I would be personally insulted at you myself. My wife would say something on the order of, "If it was important enough to you--if I were important enough to you--you would have remembered." That would have been our last date, needless to say. I believe she is a person who values herself enough as an individual. As a parent of a daughter--if I get one--I plan to teach her--"Look for a man who values you as much as I do. Don't settle." A man who really values a woman will value the time he spends with her enough that he will not forget a date, an anniversary, or anything else. I am glad your lady is as forgiving as she is. Things like dates don't slip your mind if they are important to you. There is no excuse. Next time, if she's important enough to you, write it down. Put it on a calendar, that's what I do. Don't learn the hard way. And there is a danger of being so "busy" that you forget the important things--like relationships.

Amen angusthethird! Hahaha. It could be that I only agree with this sentiment because I am a woman, but if my boyfriend forgot to pick me up when we had made plans I would have been angry too. I would feel that I play second fiddle to everything else in his life, which I am not okay with. Chances are, she got all dolled up to go on that date with you, and then ended up spending the night in. We all make mistakes, and I'm glad she was able to forgive you, but I hope you don't do that to her all the time. :D Cheers!
