When fashionably late becomes just rude!

January 18 2011

Hi from the (not so) Sunshine Coast, I'd love to hear how people feel about meeting a new couple/woman/guy for the first time and they are late. How late is fashionably late and how long is just plain rude? Perhaps its our upbringing but we feel it cant hurt to txt and let us know you'll be later than expected. We don't mind waiting if we know how long we are going to wait for. Thanks in advance, Funfx2 xxx

Well.. I can understand people being late in Brisbane and surrounds! And this texting phenomenon.... you shouldn't text while driving! Besides.. .how many times have you forgotten to take that mobile number you wrote down on the splodgy bit of cum stained paper stuck to your desk to the left of the right of the monitor after a hot cam session with a new couple? Really... a little tolerance is all I ever ask for! I hope they made sensational excuses and you had a wonderful time regardless of their tardiness.Too late is when you've forgotten about them and shagged youselves silly in the interim. You may be the impatient type... and that's ok too. Fair cop for running late!HugsStalky

Hi stalky. It was on the Sunshine Coast (no flooding) and they were catching a cab, they did have our number saved to mobile and no apologies or late notes from parents!! We are very forgiving folks and if they did have a reasonable excuse, all would have forgiven, kissed and made up (and made out)!! But I must add stalky, we did head home (alone) and had endless hours of good, hard and hot sex!! xxx

We think over 10 minutes late is rude and there is no excuse. You will have each others mobile, we will just ring them after 10 minutes, they allways offer an excuse like sorry be there in 5-10 minutes and thats cool. Also if we are running late, say traveling from to coast to nrth Brissy, we all have sat nav in our car it has an arrival time add 5-10 mins and text them half an hour before," Sorry we have left will be 20 mins late" Dates to meet other swingers its not fashionable to be late at all.

Quoting 'BadRomancefor4' We think over 10 minutes late is rude and there is no excuse.

Should be no more than 10 mins without an explaination as to why they were late that doesn't involve something to the effect of " i was half way down the street and realized i left a play/sex toy or something at the house".....That was obviously going to be a part of the evenings festivities..... Otherwise it's just plain fucking rude, i mean what did they need to do, fucking grocery shopping or something, i mean really come on..... PLAYFULGUY.....

Couldn't agree with you more, what makes it worse Playful, is that he/she/they had obviously had a few pre meet drinks before they came. Why not sit with us and drink rather than sit at home alone then meet us late and half cut!! Fun xxx

We dont think the explanation matters as long as everyone is polite and communicates , we have been guilty having a playnight set up in a Redcliffee apartment, we travel about 90 minutes to get there, so we combined that with picking up a computer desk we won on ebay in Brisbane and was 20 minutes late getting to the apartment. Playtime was 7pm to 1am dont think 20 minutes made that much difference. Suppose they could have smacked our bums!

I'm ALWAYS late. for EVERYTHING. People who get all nuts about punctuality and how rude it is to be late are totally right, i know it's terrible and i always feel bad about it and apologise profusely but i'm still always late. . If i set up a meeting with you, never be early!

Hi curiousnewgirl78, i appreciate your honesty and at least you know your a late person. My sisters ex was like that (he's a Dr so that explains a lot!!), so whenever she/us wanted to meet him somewhere at a certain time we always told him 30-45 minutes earlier than the desired time. This normally worked until he found out and was REALLY pissed off that we did this!! So, note to self, if we meet with curiousnewgirl78 tell her 45 min earlier than actual meet time!! Love your work curious! Fun xxxxxx

...well this day n age, technology, etc ..etc .. i guess there should be no excuse , but things do happen and you like to give the benifit of the doubt i guess if they show up and are very sorry for their tardiness ..... we do try to let people know if we are running late , and hope that we can make it up to them.. :) ... what really pisses us off is the people who make arrangements with you assure you everything still cool to meet up.. , then just dont show. Nothing . No sorry a day , or even the morning of , just nothing. No response ... i guess also in this day and age , some people have just forgotten basic manners . thank goodness it is a very , very small minority. thankyou all so much for taking the time out of your busy day to read my post . all the best for a delightful evening . mrs c x x

Time is not fashionable, it's a constant (to the observer). Being late shows a lack of respect. If unavoidably late, advising people is the right thing to do. Everybody knows it. You can only ask others to be of their word. Whether they are or not is another thing, but you can ask anyway.

Brides should be a little late for their wedding. Definitely be on time when meeting other couples. Going to a huge party with many people attending is ok to be late. Small parties are not ok. For couples meeting couples, 10 mins is tolerable. Even if you are going to be 10 mins late, you should at least message the other couple to say sorry, and to give them the heads up. Not showing up at all the the utmost rudest thing ever!!!
