I probably should have re-rescheduled instead of canceling but I was lost in a strange area and frustrated.We're still texting but he hasn't asked me out again and I don't want to seem too keen by asking him. Did I miss my chance? Does it mean he's still interested in me since he still texts me?

I personally wouldn't ask a girl out again after she cancelled the first time without a damn good reason.

A girl should never pursue a guy. He'll get one sniff of female desperation and know he can have whatever he wants. If you want security and commitment, don't give up your leverage. Plus, if a guy won't ask you out, he probably lacks confidence. If you make yourself available, you won't build his confidence. Pursuing and winning a mate is part of the male right of passage into adulthood. A girl who wants to be happy should seek guys in their late twenties to late thirties. Those guys are serious about marriage and commitment. I don't wat my life on promises when I could have a diam0nd, a house, children and ultimate fulfillment as a woman.

 Hi
Put it this way he is STILL texting you so he hasn't lost interest. Why don't you bring it up,like when's my 2nd chance type of thing?
Meet him someplace you do know instead of an area you don't.
You could have just explained you were lost and running late last time instead of a no show,so it does sound like a weak excuse.
He needs to know your genuine

i dont think canceling means you missed your chance. If he is still talking to you then dont worry about it! if he isn't asking you again, maybe you should just ask yourself. Bring it up casually, without sounding too jumpy, and that will show him that you didn't purposely flake out on him.

 i'm sure you didn't miss your chance. he's probably just insecure to ask you again. it's possible he got the impression you weren't interested since you cancelled and just doesn't want to come across as needy. why don't you mention it to him? why does he have to approach you first? what could it hurt? i don't see him saying no, since he's still talking to you.
