Seriously, as one who is slightly plump , I can honestly say that I doubt it's your weight that's an issue here.
The problem is that a lot of folk like the idea of a meet much much more than the actual going through with it and they bottle it. Simple as.
My first meet arranged on SH I got stood up. Subsequently I've had other folk let me down even when they knew I was in a hotel I'd booked for us. Grrrr!
I've learned over time to set up a series of personal 'hoops' a potential meet has to jump through before I will agree to a meet and I've pretty much eliminated the no-shows. You have to get very good at trusting - but more importantly *testing* - your gut instinct.
:rose: Persevere though; some great folk on this site!

You to Nola Well they did at least send a last second text message
Yeh you have to find what works for you. Our philosophy now is expect nothing and have a back up option. That way you dont spend all week getting ready for something then have nothing to do :( On the night we were stood up with Hotel room booked we went to a club and ended up playing elsewhere

But its not just men
We have been stood up by couples on a few occasions for outdoor fun even after umpteen emails and a few social meets throw in :doh:

Quote by Waterpistol
I had a situation several years back when I was invited round to someone's house and made my way over without giving it second thoughts (They were only 5 minutes from me)
When I arrived they were both there and the poor (and drunk) girlfriend wasn't even aware I'd been invited ... I think he'd mentioned the idea of swinging as a passing fantasy and was hoping to change her mind once I was there and she was drunk enough. :shock:
