Any man that cancels a date with me will pay me $100 for wasting my time
Maddy Carty, a model, has sparked conversation by suggesting that men should pay a deposit for a first date to ensure they take it seriously and to avoid last-minute cancellations.
She believes there should be a cancellation fee if someone backs out of a date within 24 hours. “If someone cancels a date within 24 hours, you should be able to charge a cancellation fee,” she explained.
Maddy previously went viral on social media—and faced backlash—for revealing that she charges men $100 upfront for promised dates.
In an interview with Daily Mail Australia, she stood by her stance, recalling an incident where she had been chatting with a man on a dating app for weeks, only for him to cancel on her less than 30 minutes before their Friday night plans.
she said: “We’d locked in a time and place for Friday night.”
“I tanned the night before. I went into work that day when I could have worked from home. I did my make up. I styled my hair. I dressed up. I had a pre-drink with my workmates at the bar… and then got a text half an hour before we were meant to meet up.
“It said: “Oh sorry, I’ve got to work late, I can’t make it anymore”.
“It probably happens one out of two times. So many times.
“Aussie men have this thing where they love to talk the talk, but they won’t walk the walk.
Maddy Carty explained that she considers $100 a fair amount for men to compensate her for wasting her time if they cancel a date.
“You can’t get back the time you invest in getting ready, getting excited.
“I also then couldn’t do anything else on that day. Friday night is prime real estate of the week. By 6pm, it’s too late to organize another date, or for me to make other plans with friends.
“I had to go home, get un-ready and sit on my couch watching Netflix. It’s a huge waste of time and effort.
“It’s not the same as being stood up because they’re still communicating, but working late on Friday night? That’s not an excuse.
“I’m someone who sticks to plans once I make them, out of respect for the other person. If you wouldn’t cancel on your friend last minute, then what makes you think cancelling on someone you’ve been talking to online is okay?
“When I said it costs girls “hundreds of dollars” to get ready, I’m accounting for my make up and beauty products – they’re expensive! – but for my time more than anything else.
“That’s my hourly work rate, $200/hour, plus the cost of the Mac or Mecca products, how much it costs to maintain my hair, my tan, to fill my car with petrol to drive to the city, and make a trip to the office. It all adds up.’

His death really shook me .i couldn’t think straight . Some people said be thankful you didn’t end up as a young widow , excuse you !! That was someone’s son. I stayed away from relationships for a while”
