So last night went on a second date with a guy, we had already had one date a few weeks ago which went really well. He lives in a different town to me about an hour away so I booked a hotel as for me was too soon to stay at his. So we went for food and and drinks and were having a good night but as the night went on it was clear that he was more drunk than me. He said he had had 2 beers with a friend before meeting me. So towards the end of the night he went outside for a smoke and we had agreed we were going to leave after that. I was finishing my drink inside and realised he had been out a while so I went outside to look for him and he had gone. I rang him and he said he thought I had gone back to my hotel (well no because he would have seen me walk outside past him to do that
) and said he was on his way to a friends and asked me if I wanted to meet him there to carry on drinking. Erm no thanks I’ll go back to my hotel. Luckily taxi rank was right outside. I was not happy and I texted him that. I then woke up to loads of apology messages from him, asking for another chance etc and he tried ringing me etc. I told my friend and she was livid that he had left me on my own in a strange town. So to give another chance or red flag for future behaviour? It’s a shame because first date was really good and been enjoying getting to know him. At the point where he was really drunk he did also keep asking to come back to my hotel but I kept putting the boundary in place.
