To think this is rude?

[MamaSaysItsAHardKnockLife]

Asked out on a date and trying to arrange when, we both have kids and it's a mission. We met on OD but are old friends from school, it's all been a bit stop-start but technically this would be our first official date. He was (I thought) genuinely interested?!

I suggested Monday just gone this weekend; he misunderstood and thought I was talking about the week ahead, which he can't do as his weekend with the dc.

No problem said I - let's do Monday as in tomorrow (this was on Sunday afternoon); I do know it's short notice though so of course no problem if not.

His reply, "Tomorrow's Monday?"

This is rude isn't it!! I have just left it. Bloody men.

I don't understand why you're asking about replying

No-one here is going to say "he's flaky, not bothered about meeting up, he pisses you off with his texting style and not reading up with messages... Hell yes you should keep texting!"

When I was OLD, my friend said "don't bother with anyone who isn't rubbing their penis against your front door". A bit crude and it wouldn't weed out the nutters if you did date someone with his nob in your letterbox but you get the point - don't bother with anyone who isn't keen.

I can't believe you have had 77 replies on a thread about trying to arrange a date with a bloke on a Monday .

Fwiw, I wouldn't bother myself.
