freetolove Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Today, I had 2 people cancel on me. Both of them are known to be flakey. Both these people are great for cheering me up MOST of the time but I think they will be pretty USELESS during emergencies. Do you accept these people OR Cut them out of your life. I've already had talks with both of them.
c0nfused88 Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 For me it depends on why they are flakey. For example, I have one friend whom would love to make plans with me and then always had a million excuses to cancel them. She didn't have a lot of other friends-- and had done this to mutual friends. Personally, I really think she just had social anxiety problems and was a bit of a loner. She'd like plans in theory but would get nervous/anxious as they approached and would bail. I accepted this and made less and less plans with her-- we still talk from time to time but I consider her a friend. If these people are just being flakey on you and nobody else then I'd probably cut them loose-- or let them come to you with plans. If they ask you to do something next-- say specifically that if they cancel again you're not going to be available the next time.
Author freetolove Posted May 31, 2012 Author Posted May 31, 2012 both of them are flakey mainly because of the lack of organization. Well one of ht is lack of organization, I think the other one is just selfish.
