What Kean did was mild compared to what happened to me a few months ago.
I met an Army Ranger on Christmas Day 2010 while I was drinking at a local bar. My parents and I were not getting along at the time because I was dancing, and they didn't approve of my occupation so I spent my holidays downtown.
George and I only spoke to each other briefly, but we exchange numbers.
After that, I stayed contact with him through Facebook as he headed to Afghanistan, and served his country there.
When he finally finished his deployment, and commented that he was headed to my area again, I left a comment on Facebook for him to let me know when he was in town.
He kept calling me at three am.
His TXT-messages were just as rude.
"What R U doing?" He asks.
"Laying in bed. You?"
"Same!!! U should join me....Ok???"
I never responded to that.

Stood Up
I got stood up.
His name is Kean (names changed). He is in the class before mine, linear analysis. So, every day of the week, we pass by each other. I use his desk. We started out making polite conversation, and then one day, out of spunk, I asked him if he wanted to have a beer with me after I finished my midterm.
He said yes.
He's plain looking with no hair on his head except some facial, and he's not my type (no one is really my type anymore).
After several failed attempts, we never got together, some of which were my fault. I've been sick with the flu.
Finally, on Monday, I asked him if we could see each other on Tuesday. He said, "Yes!"
On Tuesday, I sent him a message saying that we needed to get together early (I preferred five o' clock), as I had to get up early in the morning. I never heard anything back until almost six o' clock. By that point, I had almost finished my beer at the bar.
His response was, "Dangit. My message didn't send." He claims that he tried contacting me earlier. He couldn't leave to meet up with me because he was in study group, and "it doesn't look like we are close to finishing."
He also explained that "when [it] comes down to it, [school] is my number one priority..."
He asked if he could make it up to me by taking me out to dinner on Friday (today), but I refused.
I also called him a liar, saying, "Just don't lie and say your message didn't go through...."
Besides that, he knew about the study group on Monday, and could have planned accordingly.
