People say that distance makes the heart grow fonder, but what do they say about flying across the country for a date and then getting ditched?
When Samantha, who goes by @sdenoyer on TikTok, said she had booked a cross-country flight to go on a date with a mutual friend she had only met on FaceTime, people gave their thoughts on the situation.
The first night they met, they stayed at his childhood home. The next day, they went to a hotel and had brunch.
In the now-viral TikTok viewed 1.8 million times, Samantha wrote: “I flew across the country to meet a date – when I woke up from a nap he was gone along with all of his stuff,” and panned over to the empty side of the bed.
She also shared the string of text messages she “blew up his phone” with to no reply.
“This is so f—ked up,” she wrote.
“You could’ve done this earlier so I coulda changed my flight wtffff.”
“Also you took my vodka???” she asked, explaining in a follow-up video that the two drank and played board games before he dashed.
Samantha said she called him many times, but he never answered. A friend of both of them called her date, and when he picked up, loud music blasted through the phone.
He responded way later and said he had a “family emergency.”
Other TikTok users had plenty of questions and comments on the wild situation.
“WHYYY do men do this someone explain,” one asked.

“First off. Why would EVERRRR buy a flight to see a guy, babes STAND UPPPP lol,” another quipped.
“Damn you are hella desperate,” another jugged.
“I cannot wait until you reach the point where you take one no response as your closure.”
Others suggested that she’d hear back from the guy in the next few months.
“3 months later ‘heeey stranger,'” another joked.
One user even offered a helping hand.
“Are u safe do u need help or money or a friend wherever you are!?!!!!”
Samantha agreed with many of the comments, saying the whole experience was a “huge lesson learned.”
