    Neither one is someone I want to talk to but grey really should’ve just put the phone down and focused on that promising opportunity

      I don’t think grey actually has another “opportunity”. This feels like a negging tactic to me.

    Everyone in this thread who is too stupid to realize this is fake rage bait.

    I hate people now. Nobody wants to keep their commitments. You can invite people to an event and they will all say yes, until a more enticing thing comes along and the flake on you last minute. If you say yes, be there, tell the other person “sorry I already made plans that day” like an adult

    Greens response could’ve meant (s)he had a busy day at work and was glad to put their feet up. The bluntness met have been unintended.

    Grey then exploded and made it a problem, showing that green actually dodged a bullet.

    I don’t get why people are confused about this.

    Grey was horrible human being first. Green’s reply was a response that horribleness. It’s not like green was genuinely waiting to spring that.

    …probably.

    I must be weird, or maybe it’s because I used to date someone like Grey, but the impression I got about green is not that they said that because they didn’t want to go out anyway, it was that they were glad grey revealed themselves to be uninterested in them even if it was kind of in a sleazeball way, acting like it was just fine to cancel last minute to go be with someone else.

    More like green was happy grey pretty much just sent up a red flag and confirmed that they dodged a bullet.

      Love your chicken, by the way.

    I mean its 95% fake but it doesnt really make a difference for discussing it as if it was real.

    I think it deoends on the relationship between the two and the kind of meeting they had planned. If its a date and grey bailed for an other date, thats really shitty. If it was a casual meetup between friends and grey bailed for a dating opportunity, its not that shitty and green was a bit rude with the follow-up, but again depends on their relationship and how they usually communicate. In any case, the last few messages are completrly overboard.

      Maybe they were pals and Green was saying “thank God” in a good-natured “yay, you finally got a date, happy for you bruh” manner but the response went right over Grey’s head and led Grey to make a total ass of themself.
