Last minute saying no

Am I wrong of cancelling last minute because I felt uncomfortable meeting with the guy ?

We are supposed to meet later today but his questions and attitude made me feel uncomfortable and I told him so

My problem is I had give him my address as he was due to arrive here around 530

But a sixth sense told me not to go through it

He’s veried a couple of times but made comments that made me feel something wasn’t right … he wasn’t rude or impolite but some strange questions he asked just didn’t sit well with me

No; if you don’t feel it’s right then call it off.

No you didn’t do anything wrong at all. No one has to do anything they don’t want to, your safety comes first

You can withdraw consent at any point.

If you felt something wasn't right then not going ahead with it was the right choice

If your spidey senses are tingling? Don't go through with it. Why put yourself in a position where you'll feel uncomfortable?

Trust your instincts.

And next time give them your street or nearby but not precise address, tell them to call you when they are on your street for precise address.

Not at all, if you communicate it to him. Not necessarily why but just so he knows

You’re perfectly fine to change your mind.

Just as a security thing……consider not being home, or having someone with you should he knock at your door.

Go with your gut feeling it's there for a reason, you're absolutely well within your rights to cancel at any time....

We always insist on a social,if it's Mrs alone then it's definitely a public place and never ever give complete strangers our address.

Trust your gut instinct, it's something I need to do more because it's never been wrong.

You were right to call it off, always follow your intuition. Re: him knowing your address - if he starts getting creepy, make out you’ve male relatives staying over and if need be, vary your routes to shake him off. (Better safe than sorry)

DO NOT MEET.. your gut feelings are usually right...

Be polite but make sure he knows another man will be there.. a relative or friend.

Never give your address out until you have met in a public place more than once and be happy but it is easy to say that now.

This site is all about you and if you don't want to meet then don't.

Such good advice! You're more than entitled to change your mind OP and hopefully he'll respect that but please keep the above in mind for future meets.

We had an mmf meet set up a few months back. Day of meet he started demanding bareback which is a deal breaker for us. Cancelled straight away to torrents of abuse here and on WhatsApp. That was clear cut but if anything even slightly off happened we would not meet

I'm glad he's taken it well ,you did right to cancel if it felt off to you.Maybe consider meeting people in a public place op,so they don't have your address straight away.

Not at all, safety is always number 1 and you should trust your gut

Here’s a tip I hope more people follow

Never give your full address, just the street, that way if they don’t show up, or you cancel, you don’t need to worry about unwanted visitors and you’ll feel more safe

You definitely did the right thing if you didn't feel comfortable.

Not sure what his questions were. Maybe they were innocent on his behalf.

I once arranged to meet one half of a couple. I innocently asked who would be in? This took her back a bit and asked me to explain. For me I just wanted to know what to expect when I got there. For her it probably rang alarm bells. Sometimes things can be misunderstood over text. It may be worth getting them to explain what they meant by the things they've said.

I would always advise meeting somewhere public first though

I 1000% agree with this!!! Never give your full address. Walking a short distance to meet someone is a small price to pay for your safety & no, even the very last second is nit too late to cancel x

It’s never wrong or too late to say no. And you have given him your reason and that should be enough.

Absolutely not wrong for cancelling. Everybody has the right to do so, especially if the reason is the person is making them feel uncomfortable. Listen to your intuition, it’s not wrong xx

Trust your gut - you aren't wrong for cancelling. He may be disappointed and that's understandable but if you aren't comfortable, you shouldn't feel coerced into something.

I'd recommend going out for the evening if you can though as he has your address. Some people do not take the clear "no thank you, I've changed my mind"'

Never feel bad about cancelling if you're concerned. I've also given my address when first joined and didn't realise how dangerous that was as was getting on well through messages and phone calls. Now just give road name and go and get them when they're there. Handy to have a full length coat if you happen to be i your underwear

If your senses or telling you that you don’t feel comfortable. Stop. Reevaluate at your own pace. You shouldn’t feel pressure into anything.

I was wondering the same. Other women have said men turn up again uninvited at any point, day or night.

If we're honest and don't mislead someone, or not inform them, when we can't or don't want to complete a meeting, then we're doing what we can.

We must look after our safety and wellbeing. If there's anything that indicates that we're not right to meet, then cancel, potentially to rearrange.
