Yes, I've had it happen a few times in my dating career... Jerk totally canceled the last minute or just stood me up. It hurts. Stupidly, my low self esteem had me even keep dating the guy sometimes. It didn't happen much and I did find better quality guys who didn't pull that crap and moved on.

When it's going to happen, there's a little voice in the back of your mind that knows it's going to happen. Listen to that voice and prepare yourself. So what if you put on make up and do hair. If you look nice and get stood up, go out with friends or alone or whatever.
