So I got stood up on a date yesterday

and it makes me question myself [b]a lot[/b]
am i ugly?
did i come on too strong?
was it because i wasn't his type?
i didn't really bother to ask why, because if he had a reason he would have told me by now. i waited 3 hours.
i've never really ever been rejected because i have never approached a guy like how i did with this one

i sent him a message on facebook stating exactly this; "hi i think you're cute, we should hang out sometime!" and he replies saying that he's down to hang out. we made plans and everything.
? what the heck man
i don't understand men.
he hasn't said anything to me since yesterday. i sent him a confused emoji over facebook when it started getting past 2 hours waiting for him, he read it, and didn't reply.

this is proof that i should never approach a guy ever again

Yoooo, the flood gates have been released, OP is hot.

On topic, the only person who really knows why you got stood up is the dude himself.
Either get an answer from him, or move on.
If you keep getting stuck up on finding a reason why you got stood up, you'll only end up making one up for yourself for closure (you think you're ugly, not your type, etc.)
Stop thinking too much, life has enough problems, no point in making ones for yourself.

Also why'd you wait 3 hours for him? lol

As a typical teenage girl would say, can i be you? <3

i guess i know how you feel to a certain level. Just know that there will always be that one guy (or many l0l) who will reject you and you just
need to learn to accept that. You are stunning girl. Yes [b]stunning[/b]. And if he doesn't want the b00ty then dont give it to him.
Can't believe im saying this but play hard to get it. Its not wrong throwing yourself at him but if he doesnt like take the booty foe free
then deuces. And btw just because one guy rejected you doesnt mean you need to stop approaching guys. You are truly stunning and you
will find that hot ass boy who will be blessed that you are in his arms. amen!

Dude, do you know anything?

You can't approach guys. If you approach someone, you validate him: you're telling him, "Hey, you're good enough for me and we're on the same level." Due to society's hypergamy, guys have to settle for girls a few ticks below them on the scale. But you just ruined everything by approaching him. You want to meet a guy? Get Tinder and play hard to get. Don't message guys on Facebook begging them to hang out with your thirst.

I'd do things with you.
A lot of things.

@Augustrain will probably smack me for saying this but i'm going to say it anyway. You're pretty, you're definitely above average, don't let one idiot ruin your perception of yourself. There are other boys out there, don't worry about it.

There are things like this too. Well, don't worry. He was probably looking out for you in his own way. The most exciting part of a date is before it starts. He was trying to give you three hours of excitement. It's a kind of wisdom that only comes after you turn 20.

Maybe he saw you on Basil and decided he couldn't associate with someone who visits this site.

[quote=MrSwagish]Probably [i]stunned[/i] him, which is why he didn't show up

That was a bad attempt at a pun

I'm sorry[/quote]

it's okay!
i hope that was the reason

@Irony: i am 19 years old and he's 22
@Updated: thank you for the compliment! yes this was the guy from my other thread heh. i still do think i am attractive but mostly the reason why this particular boy made me question my attractiveness is because he's much more attractive than any of the guys i've ever been with, so in my head i'm going, "was he out of my league and am i not as attractive as i think i am?"
when i approached him i totally thought he'd have some interest
however i was proven wrong!
@OnlineMusic: of course, i agree that average isn't a bad thing. i care very little about looks but i know that it does serve a purpose. i have confidence in both my personality and my looks and that's mostly what drove me to approach this guy to begin with, but because of the unfortunate event that took place yesterday evening it's put a huge dent in my self esteem o.o

You know average isnt always a bad thing. I prefer an average girl 10x more than the preppy, stereotypical, captain of the cheer-leading squad girl.
But hey thats just me. And yeah, I know, people like to say this kind of stuff all the time but it isnt until we're older when we actually understand it.

If that is you then I have to laugh at that "kill me" expression on your face lol

You're not ugly, in fact, you're quite pretty. I'm assuming this was the guy from your last thread?

If you ask him why he didn't show up and he doesn't respond, he's just a jerkface. Try someone else since he's obviously not worth it. If he does have a good reason, then of course forgive him. You should still approach guys, you should have the confidence to do so, so many guys on here have already called you pretty.

I applaud you for making the first move, you're braver than a huge percentage of guys

No, you're pretty. You can trust this compliment because i'm someone who would much rather give a hurtful truth than a comforting lie and this is coming from a guy.

[quote=MrSwagish]We can't answer that first question without a photo.

That said, [b]lol@thisguy. If they stood you up, it just means that they are an idiot. Unfortunately, they are out there, and sometimes we come into contact with them. I'm sure you're a wonderful person, and you shouldn't let jackasses get you down![/b][/quote]

Sorry to hear that, dont want to be a ***** about it but maybe he used you as an ego boost. Ive done that a few times in high school and I feel bad for doing it.
I wouldnt know how it is to be stood up but if that **** happened to me I would confront them in person and be blunt about it.
Call that coward out. >.<

sounds like an ass hat. If you don't want to go out with someone, don't agree, or at the very least, cancel last minute. Don't make someone waste their time,smh.
You deserve better, don't worry about it.

Don't overthink it. He could have many reasons such as being too shy or something.
