Heck yes, she had a right to be furious. I'd be furious and it has nothing to do with being "an attractive women" (don't get me started on how horribly sexist this comment is). You wasted half her day without letting her know what was going on. Cable companies (that are notorious for bad customer service) give a better window of service and keep in better touch with their clients than that. This has nothing to do with her attractiveness, mental illness, or her supposed interpretation that you were hitting on her. YOU screwed up. You were inconsiderate and rude when you did not keep her informed about your lateness. Own it and stop trying to justify it some other way.

I did apologize like crazy but lets also not forget, I am a painter, not a door knob repairman and I took the entire day to get together all the parts, tools, and I had to pick the brain of many associates at hardware stores to be sure the job would be done right. I even had to borrow a huge drill so while yes I was late, she lost the perspective that I was going beyond the call of duty to help and save her money. She again is a housewife that does not work or go anywhere. When I showed up to paint her house. I was ontime, did a fantastic job, etc..
