Have you ever waited for someone and they never showed?

yes this happen to me too. i have waited my girl and she did not show up. i felt like i want to get mad at her. i so hard when you go to your meeting place but she will not show up. specially when you want to see her or you missed her so much.

I havent had this for a long time. I think one time they said they come back after dinner but they didn't. I wonder why they didnt have the chance :(

This happened to me once when I was in college. I was supposed to meet with one of my classmates to work together on a collaborative project, and she never showed. Later I called her, and she claimed to have been there, exactly when I was there. She said she didn't see my. It mystifies me to this day.

Yup, I have had this happen to me. One time this guy invited me to a semi-formal event. It took some persuasion for him to get me to accept, because I was not entirely sure that I would be comfortable there. He convinced me that it would be fun (or at least the food and drinks would be good), so I agreed. The day before the event, we even discussed what I would be wearing, since I wanted to make sure that I was dressed appropriately for such an event. We agreed to meet at a local bar/restaurant, and then we would go to the event in his car, since I lived in the opposite direction of where we were going and did not want to make him drive so far out of his way. He was not there when I got to the agreed meeting place, so I sat down at the bar to wait. I was getting a little nervous about us being late, since I really did not want to draw any unwanted attention by arriving late to the function not to mention that I was worried that we would not find a seat together at one of the tables and I definitely did not want to sit alone. I was also feeling a little awkward about sitting at a bar and not ordering anything, but I didn't want to order something and have him show up right afterward, either. I tried calling him, but the call just went to voice-mail. I left a message letting him know that I was waiting at "so-and-so" place and said that I wanted to verify that I was at the right place just in case I had misunderstood where we were supposed to meet (even though we had just talked about it the day before and I was sure that I was at the right place). There was no response to my call, and he never showed. The next time I saw him, he pretended that he had totally forgotten about our plans and had never received my message. I knew that was a lie, since he had to buy tickets to the event not to mention the fact that we had discussed going to it the day before to verify everything. Needless to say, I did not waste any more time on that loser.

Yes I once agreed to meet a friend somewhere but they never turned up or gave a reason why they didn't.

I too hate when that happens, but that's a part of life. Sometimes things come up and people should have the decency to call or something. I know I get anxious when too much time has passed and my partner, George, is late in coming home. But it doesn't stem much more then that so I can't complain too much.

Hi tuckersheri... Yes it is indeed a terrible feeling- the feeling of being ditched... It has happened to me too. It was a friend of mine. We had planned to meet for dinner one evening. We agreed upon the place to meet and I was there on time. Half an hour gone, am still waiting... I thought, 'girls take a little more time to get ready, so I should wait for a little longer...' One hour gone, and am still waiting... I felt humiliated... Next day she called up and said sorry. It was useless though, I wonder, why didn't she call me that evening only. It would have been simple to call and tell me that she couldn't come... That's it! I don't know what kind of fun it is for some people to make others wait for them and ditch them... Perhaps, they have got such a treatment in the past from someone and they feel as if they pay back, by making us wait... But hello, It was not I to make you wait.. It was someone else. Why should I suffer?

What I would like to say is I waited for someone once, they never showed. I stood there like a dork. But I have waited for the love of my life, and he sure did show up. I have also waited all my life for someone, but he never came either. He's still there but not here. :(

I was a few times in that situation in the past, but were small fry, so I went slightly over it, just another day I have never trusted them. But I know someone who has waited for someone else four years, and apparently she did not forgive him, even time pass. Is a hard situation.

i had this feelings before with my ex when he promised to come and see me so he can accompany me for my monthly prenatal check up. since he will come to my house, do all the cleaning, cook for his favorite for our lunch and all then all of a sudden he didnt come and it happens not just one but 3 times. and so the next itme he will say i will come i didnt bother to prepare at all til he just gone. it really hurts really as i was waiting then i started to hate him if i look for him its not for me but for the baby but i guess he even doesnt care about the baby.

Yes. I have experienced it and me being a punctual to the dot kind of a person this type of treatment is unbearable specially when there is not even an apology. I consider waiting beyond the given time as a disease and when a person does not turn up it is 'terminal illness'

Erf, no, i have never had this situation yet, i think that if it's the first time, i could excuse him but if it happens too often, i will do the same thing for this person! Or just stop talking to them.

yes, i experienced it before. i was really, really mad!

I have never faced a situation like this. But coming to the present situation and feeling it, it is very very embarrassing if some one who promised to come haven't make up, leaving us back looking and waiting for them. Waiting for the upsetting people is the worst thing that I think!

I can only recall one time and fortunately I didn't get too upset because it turned out they had been in a car accident and had to go to the hospital. They were not badly injured and got out right away but I felt bad over what little feelings of blame I had had toward them for not showing up.

I have had this happen to me in the past and the person that i was meeting did not ring to let me know that they were not coming and the reason for this is because they said they had forgotten that we were supposed to go out.I think that these types of people are very rude and i have now not bothered about meeting up aswell as making arrangements with this person.

I remember a supposed friend doing this to me when I was younger. It made me feel like an idiot. At the time I took it as an insult and a way of humiliating me, which made me VERY mad
