Dating someone - how would you deal with this situation?

OP's previous first post on the other thread - posted 17/12/2013:Hi guys,
I have been seeing this girl for a few weeks, we have made out and thought we liked each other because we text each other quite a lot. We travel a lot in our careers so don't always get to meet regularly which I understand. But lately I am not so sure about her and here's a recent situation:
If you are seeing this girl, and propose to make some plans let's say to see them on the weekend.
You discuss via text about meeting each other on Saturday morning and she replies and says she's available Sunday eve. You reply back saying Sunday eve is good but she doesn't text back to confirm the whole of Saturday, and the whole of Sunday, and only messages you on Monday to say she had 'flu'.
What would you do?
Considering two weeks before she also said she had 'flu', and overslept for another meet before (we both went out the night before, I was able to wake up). I gave her the benefit of doubt these two times because naturally sometimes these things happen but I am interested in hearing what you would do about the above.
I thought a normal person would have at least texted to say they are ill and can't make it even if they had flu. It's not like its a debilitating virus, people seem to be addicted to their phone these days so I doubt anyone can go a day without seeing their phone.
It seemed a little rude to me and I felt like it disrespected my time. I like her but it also makes me not want to see her anymore.
Almost word-for-word.
OP - you had 3 pages of advice on that thread.
What is the point of posting the same thing again?
Posted on the OP's previous thread on 18/12/2013:Thank you for all your responses guys. The advice of moving on is what I am doing.
It's been 5 weeks or so and we've not contacted each other.
Is this the same girl?
Didn't you move on?
Did she do it again?
Or is it a different girl?
Why are you wasting people's time asking the same thing as you asked 2 months ago?0 -

Well, hes been seeing this girl for a month so it seems like its a different girl.
Amazing though that they act and react in exactly the same way and they both seem to cancel dates when they have "flu"
I suppose the moral of the story is check your old threads before you start an almost identical one.0 -

Sounds like Groundhog Day to me. :rotfl:
At least his previous girlfriend didn't check Facebook even though she'd got the 'flu'. :rotfl:
But they both seem to have the same habit of over-sleeping after a night out. :rotfl:0 -
OP, I think you need to go and see your GP.
It seems that you have some sort of contageous disease such that whenever you kiss a girl she becomes prone to bouts of flu.
Until it's sorted I suggest you stop kissing people.0 -
He could take his next date for a romantic trip to the flu jab clinic.
Perhaps they do season tickets? Now that's MSE! :money:Public appearances now involve clothing. Sorry, it's part of my bail conditions.0 -

Ha. It could start a new trend. If she doesnt like needles theres always night nurse.
I know someone who when she was dating someone she really wasnt that into, she always said she had flu.
Tbh, its overused anyway, loads of people say they have flu when they have nothing more than a snotty common cold.0 -

I thought I was going mad! Could've sworn this was an old thread, but then saw that it was posted today. Glad others pointed out that it's the same as a previous thread.

I've got a case of de-ja-vu now! It's like it's been copied and pasted.0
