Do you keep your promise?

I do. Sometimes. I made a promise to my nephew Basty to take him one day to the Toy Kingdom to buy new toys, but apparently, the deal with SSS is not yet arrived so he keeps bugging me about that. He told me I am a lier because of that promise and now he even doesn't want to talk to me. And now, I made a promise again to the boyfriend not to bother my Mother's delirious attitude. And I hope I can keep up and shut my ear about her annoying mouth. Photo grab from Google.com

If I promise something, I should do it. As much as possible, I don't need to promise.

@JustBhem i am a true friend through thick and thin but when i am hurt, your existence in my life is already up in smoke and in thin air. i can eradicate a friend out of my system. that is the Scorpio in me.

If this is a subject, my grade would have been 75 or failed. I'm trying to keep my promise that I can remember many cases that I don't keep it.

As you see in the case of your nephew, not keeping your promises can wreak a relationship. People do not like flakes. How do you feel when other do not keep their promises?

@JustBhem I suppose you meant: it was not my intention to broke my promise. Anyway, talking is the best way of dealing with such stuff. Even small children can be pretty rational sometimes. Just explain what's going on.

I dont usually make promises. There's a phrase in the Bible where Jesus told someone that we should not utter promises. We should better tell someone with a yes or no but no promises coz it's a way of Satan.

@renicemae I am just joking. I know that. But I am always true to my promises when it comes to my nephew it's just that other matter occurs during those times.

@JustBhem I didn't say that. I mean only that making promises is not good practice.

Well depends on the situation... Haha but as much as possible I don't want to make promises when in the first place I can't sometimes grant the promises I made to myself

I only did promise him because I thought I will have the money but it looks like it will take long for me.
