Are men giving up too easily?

A friend of mine had a date with a girl, she was 30min late. He didn’t complain. The next day he texted her, she replied 4hrs later with an apology. My friend never contacted her again.
Was he right to give up that soon?

I think people give up too easily over all. However, maybe there was something else he didn't like about her.

@perceptivei That’s probably it.

She didn’t seem very interested, he’s not wasting his time.

Depends - what exactly was written in the apology ? What words were used ?
What was the tone ??

A lot depends on how well you communicate or not communicate too.
I think maybe a 3rd chance was required to be certain to give up

@Caleidoscope It looks like the world is changing. Days where a guy would court a woman for days/months are over.
@Caleidoscope literally 4 billion women on this planet, no reason he should have to tolerate this

You can’t force chemistry
yes he is right to give up that soon

30 minutes late for someone and then ghost someone for a day afterwards even after you texted them? wtf

clearly she wasnt that interested

I wouldnt even tolerate this behavior from a family member

this is not just give up, it is also block
@eMortal its part of their nature and part of our culture

def when I was younger I knew what it was like to be charmed and captivated by a woman

but anyways wise men know its a passing feeling and not something to get too involved with
@eMortal you ever have a friend you knew who was just on and on about his girl all the time and thought how weird that was? know what it was like when it happened to you as well? you never see wise people behaving that way

but when you are under that spell you will work very hard even maybe die in some cases for that woman

anyways foolish things you do when love hits you for the first time

@unsociableAnthony ah! You’re onto something! It could be the craving of being desired by a man to the point where he’ll do anything for you.
But society has change though, the romantic era of relationships is over. Things are more transactional now.
With social media and porn gen z doesn’t feel pressured to be in a physical relationship. Without that urge they can hold back and think whether it’s worth or not.

I don't see it as "giving up". Obviously she was not particularly interested and he read her well. Right move, don't see why wasting time with someone who is not interested...

Maybe she was overly busy when he texted and she replied when things calmed down.

Maybe he wasn't interested.
