BBC英语口语:被放鸽子

VICKI:Picture this:You're standing in the rain waiting for your date.

MATT:You've been waiting for a long time.

VICKI:Where are they?

VICKI:It looks like they've stood you up!

MATT:Yup. They've arranged a date, but they're not coming - they've stood you up.

VICKI:It's horrible being stood up.

MATT:You feel that they've let you down!

VICKI:They've not done what they said they'd do.
