too harsh?

I bet you might be wondering 'What ever happened to parachute man?'. Last you heard, we had a very succesful date and I was looking forward to seeing him again. We went on our first date 8/09 - almsot three weeks ago. He expressed interest in seeing me again soon and has been in touch but his communcitions have been far and few between. I've been patient.

FINALLY, we agreed to meet up this past Wednesday. He canceled on me the last minute because his sister was in town and it was their b-day (collective - born on same day 2 years apart). No problem - everyone deserves a cancellation and I thought it was sweet that he was going to be with his sister. He apologizes and asks me out for Saturday. Yesterday, around 2 pm I get a message from him asking me if I can make dinner Friday night (even though we had made plans for Sat night). Confused, I write back telling him that I thought out plans were for Saturday and that I had already made plans for Fri night (that night, mind you). A few hours later, I get this message:

"last minute, i agreed to go upstate with my friend. we're leaving late tonight.
i have been super stressed as of late and really need the get away.

do or die, next week?

-daniel"

*Another* last minute cancellation????


To which I reply:

"that is a funny way to put it. I think it might already be dead."


TOO HARSH???
