I’m almost always the wait-er, not the wait-ee, so I sympathize, but I hope you decide to give dates at least one strike before deciding to dump them due to lateness. Everyone is late occasionally. The problem is when they are late consistently. If someone shows up late and is all sorts of apologetic about it, and it’s it’s not a pattern, let it go.

But if they show up late and don’t seem to care, kick their asses to the curb, because that is a sign of rudeness that you don’t need to even begin to think about putting in the effort to reform.

It always starts out with reasonable excuses when you first start dating. You don’t want to jump down someone’s throat you don’t know that well because they had a prior commitment to follow through on, or had to do something for a friend. But then by the time you can reasonably expect to be treated with the same priority as their friends, it’s too late! It’s such a delicate thing, because even if you are rightly justified, it just doesn’t feel right to say, “No, don’t drop your friend off, make him take the bus, we’re going to miss our movie.”

I don’t know if it’s fair to say it’s just innate in men, because I know some guys who are always prompt and accountable, and I know some girls who are awful with being on time and showing up to things.
