Set an appointment the night prior for 9 am the following morning. She asked me in a PM not to be early. I responded that I wouldn't think of it and gently reminded her not to be late (on our previous date I was left waiting 45 minutes outside her complex)

The next morning at about 6:30ish I asked her for a 30 minute slide based on a couple issues I was having and she was happy to adjust. After a confirmation e-mail prior to the appointment I was on my way. On the way there I get an e-mail asking if I could do 9:45. No problem, after all I had asked her for a small adjustment and I was thankful she e-mailed me as opposed to just letting me hang. I wait for 9:45 and go to her door, ring the bell...nothing. Thats when the thoughts enter your mind, did I push the button all the way in? Should I ring it again? What if she is on her way to the door now...ringing again may make me look pushy...those sort of thoughts. So, I waited a couple of minutes then rang the bell again...this time ensureing I pushed the button all the way in; again, nothing. A few minutes go by and I ring for a third time...followed by a knock. Nothing. Now I have been at the door for 9 minutes which in the big scheme of things is nothing...but nine minutes standing outside someones door, in the middle of an apartment complex for all to see, feels like an eternity. I start heading back to the car and a neighbor asks if I am looking for someone. Icing on the cake.

I get back to the car, check my e-mail and nothing. I e-mailed her that I was leaving and asked her not to bother following up with me.

She is notorious for this sort of thing and I guess I should have known better. I wouldn't see her again at this point if it was on the house.
