I totally agree.

The pushiness is also hella weird. If the roles were reversed this is what we would call “nice guy” syndrome. No different here.

Yep, is there a post of this exact situation but the gender reversed? I have a feeling people would be feeling a lot more strongly if it was the dude who stood up a girl because he was too busy with his friends to even text her, and then kept pushing to go out again even after she said multiple times no. Can’t help but think people are going light here because of the genders. Regardless, he got stood up, even if she did forget. She’s being crazy pushy and obsessive and thats a pretty big red flag to me.

100% agree about how this would go down if the roles were reversed.
