Had an issue yesterday

To preface this, I've always been a short notice kind of guy. However, when I set an appointment and say I am on my way, I have made it to that appointment. That is, until yesterday.

I was talking with a girl here and trying to figure out where she was in relation to where I was. I wasn't using a hobby phone, I was PM'ing here. Not the safest thing in the world. Anyway, I was in a motor vehicle collision. Rest easy, this old boy isn't hurt. The other driver was intoxicated. Interestingly, I had a bottle with me and had planned to imbibe during our date but never made it to the appointment.

To the young lady, I am very sorry. I would not have felt comfortable pm'ing you here in the back of an ambulance or at the hospital while my mom was looking over my shoulder. I hope you'll understand.

At least your ok.

...is reschedule with her, and tip her nicely for the inconvenience in missing your appointment.

Glad you're safe and kind enough to offer an apology. But I'd make sure to reach out to her personally in case she doesn't follow the forums.

first an foremost - glad you are ok - i hope the other driver is too.

but - if you can post here you can PM her too - please reach out to her and reschedule and thank her for understanding - given the circumstances i'm sure she'll understand - but she will really appreciate you getting back on her dance card and making this date happen - especially with the holidays on top of us...pun intended...

I had communicated with her well before making the post. I just felt a public apology might be necessary as well.

Life happens man. You really shouldn't need to do anything more than a quick apology and an explanation that you were hit by a car. Definitely reward girls who show understanding and appreciation though.

Glad your ok and I don't need to repeat what you've done & /or been suggested already😀

Like everyone said glad you are OK. The main thing is that you already told her situation and apologized to her. Really no need for a public apology.

or at the hospital while my mom was looking over my shoulder. I hope you'll understand. Originally Posted by seekinggradeAbj

Okay...I can't help but ask...why was she there but more importantly you couldn't find a quiet moment in the restroom...in the hall..etc...?

She was looking over your shoulder the entire time you were there...seriously...?

MW, I considered just ignoring you, and that probably would have been best.

I didn't play the exact word game, for brevity's sake. I suppose I should have said something to the effect of:

"Being at the hospital, with my mom there to make sure I was okay (sorry your mom won't do that for you, MW) and had a ride home, as well as the in and out of nurses and whatnot, logging in to let the lady know what happened took a fairly low priority due to the ongoing situation and complications of trying to make contact. If I had been texting with the lady, it would have been far easier."

Does that best address your inquiry?

If it doesn't, I am not terribly sorry. I don't owe you an explanation. The lady and I have worked it out, so this should be of little concern for you unless you're out here running ladies' business for them, and I don't think you have the capacity to do so.

Have a great day!

There has been a question and a response, so MW and SGABJ, let's move on. Perhaps this thread has run its course.

Oh and speaking of assuming...my mother cannot come see me at the hospital...she passed away a year ago last month..

Y'all have a nice day..

Uh oh...his wand is coming out MW...dont push it!! Just go back to yer seat!

Cheers to you!
Glad you are ok!
