I was supposed to meet an old friend from college ..?

We havent seen or heard from each other in about 15 years... we found each other on Facebook.





We arranged to meet at a cafe in a department store.. I volunteered my mobile number in case anything went wrong, she offer hers in return, i had to ask for it. The number she gave me had one digit too many.





ANyway, on the day i was running late (i had 2 babies with me). I couldnt call her because she gave me a duff number. In any case it turned out there were about 3 cafes in this dept store, so we neither of us knew which cafe the other was in. Long story cut short ..We missed each other.





Now, how could this situation have been avoided??





(PS i know what I would have done if i had been her, but just wonder why she didnt do it.)

hmm she should have called,I am not sure why she didn't in the situation-because it seems that if she went as far as to want to meet you again she would have wanted everything to move smoothly-you should let her know in an email she gave you too many digits and just plain ask her why she didn't call when she didn't see you///but be nice about it.:}
Reply:Obviously to specify where in the department store the cafe is, which one, make sure the number is correct that she was giving you, and give each other a rough idea as to what you'll be wearing that day to help spot the other.
Reply:She cld have called youu and shld have must have meant for it not to happen
Reply:Maybe she wasn't ready to meet you again, after so many years and she didn't know how to say so. Or maybe she did want to meet you but she gave you the wrong number by accident. Whatever her reason is, I wouldn't pressure her. I would e-mail her and say something like how you missed her the other day and how silly that neither one of you realized there was more than one cafe in the department store. Let her know that if she wanted to try this again that you'll be up for it. And leave the details in her court. If she wants to see you, she'll make sure that it happens. If not, remain friends online and don't pressure her.
