Sommehow reminds me of this story:

“A senior monk and a junior monk were traveling together. At one point, they came to a river with a strong current. As the monks were preparing to cross the river, they saw a very young and beautiful woman also attempting to cross. The young woman asked if they could help her cross to the other side. The two monks glanced at one another because they had taken vows not to touch a woman. Then, without a word, the older monk picked up the woman, carried her across the river, placed her gently on the other side, and carried on his journey. The younger monk couldn’t believe what had just happened. After rejoining his companion, he was speechless, and an hour passed without a word between them. Two more hours passed, then three, finally the younger monk could contain himself any longer, and blurted out “As monks, we are not permitted a woman, how could you then carry that woman on your shoulders?” The older monk looked at him and replied, “Brother, I set her down on the other side of the river, why are you still carrying her?”

teal really proved living well is the best revenge.

Tell me you got banned from reddit and miss it dearly without telling me

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.

Mmm the ragebait tastes so good though I feel righteous and angered

Although rude, I appreciate when people tell me outright I'm not a priority for them. So I can adjust my own.

stop posting ragebait this isnt reddit

Gray does not understand the relief of cancelled plans.

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.

Grey is definitely in the wrong, that's exactly when you should have used a white lie but they were being a huge dick.

OP, for the drama bait. Woof.

The one who flaked, and then said that there were better options. I’d respond just like the one who luckily got away.

“Hey, I’m so sorry to do this, but, something came up”.

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.

Grey didn't value Green's time, even stated someone better came along. Green responded with shade in response for this lack of respect, Grey had a crash out because her lesser choice had teeth.

I am for having read this. Doubly for commenting,

See this is the variety of shitpost where it’s just a shit post.

You deserve this

Damn right they deserve to be free from that kind of personality

Most likely, statistically, they're both shitty people.

Assuming this is not made up obviously grey is in the wrong

That's the best answer he gave. Based on the limited, implication based knowledge we have of this conversation we don't even know is real or staged.

Also green could have meant "thank god you found someone good luck"

Grey is faking outrage to get out of the situation

Both half wrong imo. I'm relatively new to the whole dating and multi dating thing but what I've come up with is:

Never ghost if you've made plans or texted a lot off app (so points to other person for actually cancelling)

Don't rub it in people's face that you're seeing other people but be honest if asked (negative points to other person)

Accept rejection gracefully with no hard feelings. I got ghosted recently and struggled with this one but stayed strong.

Any tips appreciated though because it can be tough out there.

Lmao, the other person for sure. There's no reason to lose your shit like that

Could've been, "Thank God, you found a promising opportunity. Hope it goes well".
