Having to cancel

We recently cancelled a last minute meet and I feel just awful about it. There was a room booked, but on our way to it, the phone calls and texts made it obvious there had been quite a few drinks taken. We don't meet people who have had too many. It just gets too messy and not in the good, fun way. I just feel awful about it.

Don't feel bad, you can cancel for whatever reason you want. If it feels wrong, you shouldn't go through with anything out of guilt

Don't feel awful about keeping yourself safe. I wouldn't meet anyone d*unk either.

Also d*unk people can't consent to sex so that's a good enough reason on it's own not to meet them for sex.

Thanks. I know we did the right thing, it just wasn't a nice situation.

don't feel bad. It's supposed to be fun had by all involved. Being dr'unk before anything has started is not a good look!

It’s your safety at the end of the day, at no point are you or should feel obliged to have sex etc.

We’d understand at any point if someone decided we weren’t for them.

I think you cancelled for the right reasons as consent could well have been an issue if they were d*unk. I would have done the same thing.

As a single guy I'd 100% walk away from anyone who had been drinking or taken drugs. No telling what might happen and potentially what you could get accused of,so don't blame you one bit. All that being a given its getting to be the norm. having people cancel or ghost at the last minute once arrangements have been made. Does tend to feel like it's seen as acceptable for couples and single females to drop a guy with little or no warning. It's happening so frequently lately that it's become very disillusioning. You shouldn't feel remotely bad about what you did OP.

Thanks everyone. I was pretty sure it was the right thing to do, but just needed some reassurance.

We don’t like meeting d*unk people either. The odd time we have (too late before we’ve realised) it hasn’t gone well. You did the right thing and you shouldn’t feel awful.

You did the right thing.

Consent aside how they focus and perform in the moment with you.

Would be no great memory afterwards.

I avoid the pill takers, drinkers etc

Before a meeting and a New Years eve party I heard a friend had been dia6 with level two skin cancer. She had already had both thyroid's removed due to that. I felt I had to spend time with her so cancelled a.meeting and a NYE swingers party. I felt the same as you did but in the end you have to do what is best for you.

You had the courtesy to let them know. Some people just don’t do even that.

You do not need to feel bad. We would have done the same and not met someone who had drank too much.

I cancelled a meet once, after I arrived at the couple’s house, and the (very sexy) wife was so d*unk she could barely keep her eyes open. Not my scene, thanks for your time

No need to feel bad, the reason for cancelling was entirely self inflicted (on their part), if anything they should have felt bad after hearing your reasons for cancelling!

I think u did the right thing. Like everyone else has said yr safety comes first and yr gut feeling was telling u something.

I also think u were right to do it by txt and not face to face. When people are d*unk and u don't know them u also don't know how they are gonna react. I had someone show up that was drink and they got rather pissed off when I told them it wasn't gonna work. U really don't know how someone reacts to alcohol, some people can just turn in a sec, they could get get abusive and at worst violent....u just don't know.

Good call and be proud of yrself not guilty, it wasn't right for u. Yr decision and judgement call to make, it's simple as that.

It's not your fault, anyone would have done the same.

Don't blame you and don't feel bad about it, it didn't feel right and you had to make a judgement call, we've done it.

Infact we have had to cancel a few times in the past, mostly though family issues, it's life and unfortunately things happen.

Thanks. We were concerned about how he would react face to face.
