I don’t make other plans when I’m dating a woman.
I only spend time with women I genuinely want to see, so if she reaches out, I’m happy to wait as long as it takes.

The Photography Club brings back memories. Has it really been 35 years already? I loved Aah!—it was hilarious.
Maybe 30 minutes without notice, and 60 minutes if they let me know. I’m not a big fan of people who are often late.
With the people I’m still seeing, they’re late maybe once a year, if that.

If I’m told, “I’ll be there in a little while,” I’ll wait for them to arrive for the time being. It means they are coming, after all.
That said, I’d ask how long it’ll take, and if it sounds like it might be a while, I’d probably grab a coffee while I wait.
I’m the same way with friends—I’ve kept my schedule open for that person, so I’m the type who can wait quite a long time. If it’s my first time in the area, even better; I’ll explore and enjoy myself while I wait.

That papa is either simply bad at his job or lacking in consideration.
Someone competent wouldn’t use an uncertain phrase like “just a little longer.” And if he cared about the person waiting, he’d give a specific estimate, like “about 10 more minutes.”
It’s also a common excuse habitual latecomers use to justify themselves. They know they’ll be 30 minutes late, but then they try to get away with it by saying, “I told you beforehand it would be just a little longer.”
How long you should wait depends on how you feel about it.
If a papa can casually keep a woman waiting for 30 minutes, I feel like the same thing will happen again—and he may disappoint you in other ways, too.
It’s me.

If they say they’re on their way, I think it’s reasonable to wait.
The issue is how long “almost there” actually means, so it’s fine to ask where they are now and how many minutes until they arrive.
Also, people generally arrive about 10 minutes after the stated time, so if you plan around that, you won’t have to sit there worrying.
If they’re always late, I recommend using “Photo Club time” when making plans.
※Photo Club time:
Treating a meetup time as including a two-hour window before or after the scheduled time.
Though these days, I imagine fewer people know the reference.

If you’re coming, I can wait for about an hour.
My monthly arrangement partners let me know in advance, so rather than being late, we can coordinate with each other.

These days, do people really set a specific meeting time and place like that—where someone could end up waiting if the other person is late?
You just let each other know when you’ve arrived and meet up, so isn’t being “late” in the sense of keeping someone waiting basically not a thing?
