UPDATE: Ok, tell me what you all think of this.

We drive 1 3/4 hours to meet at a hotel lounge at 9:00 pm. Everyone seemed to be on schedule. He calls the cell phone to let us know he would be about 1/2 hour late ("9:30 at the absolute latest"). We said fine, that gives us a little extra time to get checked in and settled. So at 9:15 we go to the lounge to wait. 9:40 we get another call saying he's in Scarborough in traffic (approximately 10-20 minutes away). Hmm. Well, ok, that's fine. 10:40 pm, we've asked for our bill and head back up to our room as the lounge closes at 11:00. I said to Mr., what do you suppose the odds are he'll show up at 5 minutes to 11:00?! Lo and behold, 10 minutes to 11:00 pm, another call saying he's 2 minutes away. Mr. informed him that we've turned in for the night and sorry but it's just not going to work out. The guy didn't start with an apology or anything, just informed us that he was nearly there and I guess expected us to be waiting outside the closed lounge (that we were all supposed to meet at nearly 2 hours ago) to immediately invite him up to our room. So we never did actually meet face to face. Apparently he was upset that he drove the 1 hour to get to our meeting place with nothing to show for it. Mr. said, yeah we were sorry that we all had to travel so far for absolutely nothing. We didn't mention that it cost us nearly $200 to boot.

But seeing as how it's our anniversary today (11 years! Yay!), we didn't let it spoil a good night at a hotel, eating take-out and having lots of good hot raunchy sex...even if we didn't have a third. We just wanted to see whether everyone thought that was unreasonable of us to send the guy packing?

Thanks for all the feedback!
