Recently I decided to get back into the dating game. My friends tease me about how picky I am with the guys I'll date. They say have too high of demands, which makes me feel bad. So, I decided to give a guy I met a chance. We'll call him Cheapy (You'll understand why later.)
Chance 1:
Cheapy asked me out to dinner three weeks ago, but I had plans on the night he wanted. I asked if we could switch to the next day, and he said okay.
When I asked Cheapy to set a meeting time, he kept putting me off. Then, he said he needed to check his bank account to make sure he had enough money for both of us.

I don't know about other girls, but if I get asked out on a date, I expect the guy to have already checked his bank account for the funds. I was dumbfounded and highly offended.
I waited a bit and cooled off...
Chance 2:
I suggested we could meet for coffee instead (and I had planned to buy my own cup of coffee.) Cheapy gets offended and asks why I want to change the plans because he does have enough money. He refuses to meet for coffee, and I can't fathom going out to eat because in the back of my mind, I'll be wondering if he's gonna go broke over my meal. It would take all enjoyment out of the date.
I get really ticked off at this point and tell him to just forget the whole thing. I'm over it.

A few days later, he asks for another chance. I feel bad and decide that maybe I was a bit too harsh on him. I agree to try again.
Chance 3:
Cheapy asks me out for coffee on Tuesday, but my co-worker needs me to switch shifts. I ask Cheapy if we can change it to Thursday. He agrees.
Again, I ask him to set a time for us to meet on Thursday. He says he needs to check his schedule.
By Wednesday evening, I am fed up with waiting on him. I ask him what time we're supposed to meet, and he says he needs to check and see if he has the money!
At this point, I am red hot with anger for this guy. Obviously he really doesn't want to get together. I mean three chances and all three he messes up.
Am I wrong to think this. Should I give the guy another chance or not?
