When someone agrees to post you messages or emails on a certain time or day using a computer or digital device with internet connection however they don't post the messages after making such plans.

Person A: He told me that he'll email me tonight, however I was waiting for his email and messages on facebook but it never showed up. I saw him the next day, only for him to tell me, that he forgot to send the important email. He cyber-stood me up. Didn't he cyber-stood me up?

Stood up - what does it mean?

When delays on public transport in London cause you to be late for work.

Boris Johnson is the Mayor of London and responsible for public transport in the city, so when there are delays, it's obviously his fault!

Andy: "It's 9:40! You were supposed to be here at 9:00"
Dan: "I made it to the tube station on time, but I got stood up by Boris!"

Stood up

As in "To get stood up" or "To be stood up"
To have gone on a date, except to find that you've been left by yourself because your date never showed up.

1. I had a date with a really hot girl last week, but she stood me up after realizing she was way too good for me.

2. My sister got stood up by a jerk last night after going to the restaurant and she had to eat dinner all by herself. She's never going to see that jerk again!

3. I was really looking forward to my date last night with Jenn. I even made the effort to cook a four-course dinner and light candles in the dining room. But sadly, I got stood up and all my effort was in vain.

4. If you're stood up by a woman, that might be a sign that she just isn't interested in you.
