I was going to meet a friend in town for lunch on Monday. He cancelled because he had a tradie coming to do some work and had to get his car serviced. Fine. Rearranged for today, but today he has an upset stomach.
I know full well what this is about. He has had a better offer of some sort. I suspect sex is involved.
As I am feeling a little hurt and mighty annoyed, and I have known him for about ten years, I think the loss is more his than mine because I am terribly busy in the near future. Can I afford to play a hard to get type and petulant at my age? You betcha.
Good for you, stick to your guns. Why people do this I don't know, I just think it is arrogance really.
ReplyDeleteI'm the opposite, Andrew. I cancelled on a friend last night. Perhaps not a 'better offer' but absolutely run to the ground with study.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's genuine.
Cazzie and Rosanna, he does have history of this, so I am annoyed that he has done it again.
ReplyDeleteWell call me petulant but how many times have you refused me?
ReplyDeleteAnother opportunity coming up, I'll email.
If I say I will come, I will come.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a very much practised saying.
ReplyDeleteIs that a dubble entre Jahteh. Honestly, such matters depend on my shift work, R (we rarely do anything separatedly socially) and if there is anything else is on.
