Invoking the 3-week Rule
From I guy I've been trying to meet up for drinks with since November:
Hey Anjelika
Couple of things, first my big pitch meeting is tomorrow so will have to cancel tonight - very sorry for late notice and I will make it up to you with wine a plenty :-)
Secondly, do you get to vote in these election things that are happening in the states?
Speak soon

My cool-as-a-cucumber reply:
Hey don't worry about it. Let's put it off indefinitely. I have a 3-week rule when it comes to making plans. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but it shouldn't really take that long to meet up.
I haven't applied for an absentee ballot. Maybe I will for the presidential election, but either candidate is fine with me.
-Anjelika
Funnily enough, I never heard back from him. In a way it's a shame, because I did want to have drinks for him, but if it were at all a priority for him, he would have made it happen. I'm not gonna cry over split milk. I'm just gonna move on.
I like having minimum standards. I like, even better, that I can stick with them.

Hahahhaha! That was so awesome... although I don't think you needed the "Sorry if that sounded harsh..." line. The first line was gold enough!
I think he was the guy!
You'd think if he made the effort to make contact and all that, he'd at least want to meet you.
Mind you, by the sounds of it, his loss!
mowhahahaa! Wish I had read this earlier! Or hang on, might be that I just came in under this 3 week rule? Met a guy, in the middle of some mid work examns, but said lets meet up once done, so was flexible but flexibility vanished and so did he.
Funny, I like the 3 week rule. If you want to meet someone you make time. It's that simple.

Kit, you hit the nail on the head when you said, "If you want to meet someone you make time. It's that simple. "
It IS that simple
I'd like to thank everyone for responding. Looks like I hit upon an issue that has touched upon so many single women.
Usually, I would feel somewhat bitter about something like this, but now that I have the 3-week rule I feel strangely empowered!
I like your style - girl power and all that
finish the story you were writing before, about the anal strap on
