Bandera de Venezuela
Bandera de Colombia

/plan-CHAR/

To be stood up — left waiting for someone who never shows without any warning. In Venezuela, being 'planchado' is one of the worst experiences: you're there, waiting, and the other person just never appears.

Example

"She left me waiting for two hours at the café."

"You got stood up again? Stop inviting her."
