Just a note, I had a lot of background information which I felt was necessary but got cut out of the limit, so I put it in a comment - but please I'd appreciate if you read it before making the judgement or asking INFO. The bottom line is that I have a particular bar I like to go to and feel particularly comfortable in for stuff like this, as well as other certain peeves which I'll cover there. Nothing high maintenance though (at least I don't think so). 

So, had a date, who had me pick the place. Agreed to meet at my usual spot outside and then get a drink. I never like to make them wait so I'm always making sure to be in communication.

So, as I was getting out of the shower, I get a text from her, saying she was actually ahead of schedule and ended up leaving early. So I shrug it off an give her a heads up, but then as I'm getting dressed she says "hope you don't mind, but I stopped by [other bar] for a drink". Well, it wasn't where I planned to go and I wasn't too keen on meeting there since it has a tendency to get crowded and not an ideal date place, but I play it cool and say "okay that's cool, well I actually had somewhere else in mind but I'll let you know when I'm ready", and she seems okay with this.

Five minutes later I'm ready, I ask her if she can meet me at where we originally planned, and she then insists I go in there and find her. Then I get a little annoyed because I really don't wanna have to explain it to her and she literally said "I hope you don't mind". Of course I don't say that to her, I continue to play it cool, start walking towards the area and call her - and sure enough it sounds super loud in there, and before she answers she sounded like she was already preoccupied (exactly what I strive to avoid) and once again she text me insisting I meet her where she is. As I get closer, I say where I am and ask if she can come meet me, and even mention the other bar (and it's literally right outside, at the end of the block, not out of the way at all in a very public area, not shady in the slightest).

No answer. I try calling her phone several times, nothing. At this point I'm quite annoyed, but I figure it's not the end of the world so I'll just go meet her in that bar since she's doing terrible with communication and can't follow simple instructions and it probably won't work anyway. Just as I'm about to get there I get a text saying "I have to be honest, trying to meet up tonight has been pretty sketchy, sorry it didn't work out", so apparently she came all the way out here and then cancelled/left over that.

Couldn't believe it, I can understand the particularness arousing curiosity but come on! It was a public place so I can't see why she would think her safety was in jeopardy. But what do you say? AITA?
