I've been stood up? Yes... 😆 | Weekend-Engagement WEEK 160

Hi guys, I hope you are doing great today!

I stopped by @galenkp community and I thought it was interesting to talk about this because almost no one confesses or tells when you get stood up, "it's like this", pride always wins us and it shouldn't be something we should be ashamed of, indeed we are not a golden coin to be liked by everyone haha.

So I answer the following:
Have you ever been stood up on a date? Yes!!!

About 6 years ago when I lived in Viña del Mar, I was just arriving to the city and I didn't know anyone, so a friend recommended me a dating app and although I was really a little scared, since I was alone against the world... well I dared and opened it, I started talking to someone and we agreed to meet at a specific point in front of the sea where they usually sit on the sand several groups or couples and drink a beer with adrenaline because it is not allowed to drink on the beach but well, they still do it hehe. As I didn't know much about it, I decided to take my camera with me to take some good pictures while I was in a new place.

We arranged to meet at 4:30 PM, but I have a defect that I admit: I'm unpunctual :D. I get distracted a lot and when I come to see I always miss the time, so much so that when I have a flight, I prefer to leave almost the next day (sorry, the day before😂). So that day when I arrived it was already 4:50 PM and well, there was no one there, I called and I didn't get it, in short: they stood me up! Or maybe it was my fault for being unpunctual. The message I got a while later was: I arrived at about 4:00 but I had a work emergency and I had to leave, so I couldn't wait for you to arrive because I had low battery and I had to get to the office. And I was like: ok? anything else to add? haha.

But nevertheless I was not going to miss that day, which really was one of the most beautiful I could shoot with my camera and to give a little irony or black humor to the day, there was even a couple in love at the edge of the beach, with the spectacular sunset and giving love haha, which is the photo you see on the cover (in case you thought it was me, no no no no no).

As you can see, the sunset was perfect and I got a final photo that was undoubtedly my favorite and as I always try to turn unpleasant situations around, I said to myself: These photos would not have been possible if plan A had worked, so everything happens for a reason and I am thankful for that, because my stood up, became the best date someone can have with someone and that someone at that moment was "Life and its sunsets". 😌
