The article discusses an individual's experience on a dating app where punctuality is emphasized as a key value. After planning a date, the individual arrives to find their date 15 minutes late without any prior communication. This disregard for punctuality leads to a confrontation about values, resulting in the individual deciding to leave. The story highlights the importance of aligning personal values in relationships and the role of clear communication in dating.
I connected with someone on a dating app, and after a while of texting we agreed to a restaurant date as our first time meeting in real life.
Come the time and day of the date, and she isn't there. I wait and check my phone, and she hasn't texted me anything.
At that point, I excused myself, said our values don't align, and left her there.
I know my standards are harsh, but I feel like I was very open about it and gave plenty of warnings.
