Do you ever get disappointed when someone tells you they are coming over and then never shows up? Tonight a friend of mine who has moved to another state is back in my state. She said she was coming to my house tonight. I have yet to see her. My husband and I rushed home and straightened up our house. We keep watching for her but so far she hasn't showed up. I am getting really disappointed. Do you feel this way when someone tells you they are coming over and then don't? Or when someone tells you they are going to do something and then doesn't? My dad when I was little used to promise me things and never follow through. To this day, I do not do this. I tell a person I will try or I might, I don't promise for sure unless I can. If I promise I would not back out unless it was out of my control. Like my car broke down or death in the family or something.

ummm... yeah that would tick me off. why don't you tell your friend that she should get some manners? maybe you shouldn't consider her a friend if she blows you off like that.

Well I will if she doesn't show up. But you see she doesn't drive and she has to depend on her husband and he is a real butt hole at times. So alot of times it is his fault. But I am still hoping she will show up. I wish she would have at least called me to tell me either way.

I know what you mean. I live with my husband but he is gone alot. I really look forward to company at times. My mother lives alone and I know she loves it when I come visit her. Thanks for your comments. Have a Good Evening!

definitely. it's not just when someone says they're coming over but they don't, it's also when someone says that they're taking you out but cancel in the very last minute and things like that. i really hate it when that happens. i don't make plans with people and cancel them, unless unavoidable things happen, like those that you mentioned. even if i'm tired or if i suddenly have a massive headache, i'll go ahead with my plans.

I hear ya. My sis is in town for 3 weeks. The whole ride here she tells me she is coming to my house to stay, has she stayed at my house yet, heck no. She has been here since Saturday night. She went to my brothers instead. She has kids with him so she went there so the kids could see dad when they got up. The kids are all teenagers, they don't care if they see him or not. She lied and I let her know it. She still has only been over here 1 time since she got here. When I do see her I am going to give her a piece of my mind. We are going out this weekend, so we will be able to catch up.
