I have a two-hour rule that all men I date need to follow – and if they don’t, they won’t see me again
THESE days, ghosting has become a common fear many have when dating.
This woman has been ghosted so many times that she now refuses to even get ready for her dates if they haven’t texted her within the two hours of their meeting time.

“Usually, I would start getting ready or at least thinking about getting ready but one too many times, I’ve either been ghosted or canceled on at the very last minute AFTER getting ready and it’s the most annoying thing.
“So I’m trying this thing where I do not get ready until I hear from him because I feel like I should be hearing from a guy that I’m supposed to be seeing within the two hours that I’m supposed to see him.
“So, this is what I’ll be looking like while we wait.”
The self-proclaimed forever single woman then proceeded to prep her dinner at 7:15 pm and eat 15 minutes later, still not having heard from her date.
Ultimately, at 8:00 pm, she then filmed herself eating ice cream, revealing: “He canceled.”

Beatty is clearly not the only one who thinks this way as many women sounded off on the comment section, applauding her for standing up for herself.
One woman wrote: “If you don’t hear from the guy multiple times on the day of the scheduled date, don’t bother getting ready or consider going.”
A second one commented: “If he doesn’t respect your time now, he never will. He should have had a plan and time by afternoon at least.”
And a third said: “Nah, if I don’t hear from him earlier in the day, I’m making other plans. No confirmation, no date. Especially if they planned it.”
