I have a friend that always cancels

Today I had a lunch date set with one of my oldest friends. She is a Mombie and always makes some excuse up to cancel. I know some of you deal with this  as well and I have read very good advice you guys give eachother. I tried to take this into consideration before I text her. Today was kind of the last straw. She is about to have her second kid and I now can see we have nothing in common and probably won't for several years to come.

I basically called her out on always canceling and told her I ususlly make a back up plan because I know what will happen. I decided today to delete her number and hope one day she will come around. I should have been done with her when her then three year old kicked me out of her house, because she didn't want me there. She does whatever her daughter wants no discipline. I can only assume she will raise her son to do the same.

  • I'm sorry you're dealing with this. All I can say is that I've been there...too many times.

    same here. I just had a friend back out of something this weekend. And I have a friend who says we are best friends but is never around, never comes to see me, etc and I seem to be only a convenience to her when she needs me.

  • This must be hard, cutting a friend out of your life is never easy and I'm so sorry :(
  • I can't believe she let her child kick you out of her house!

    I'm sorry to hear that things have turned out this way.

  • Sorry to hear that, but it sounds like you did what you had to do. 

    You deserve friends that appreciate you and treat you well.

  • I think you were correct in doing what you did. I can't believe she let her daughter kick you out of the house.

  • I'm sorry, that is so hard to do! It seems to be for the best, though.

    Ugh, it seems she's raising a little aszhole...I can't believe her daughter kicked you out!

  • I can't believe she let her daughter kick you out of her house!  That's so rude, and I can only imagine the issues they're going to have later on down the road when the little girl continues to think she runs the household and never gets disciplined for anything. 

    I'm sorry your friend is being inconsiderate and a mombie.  It sucks losing a friend, but I think you're doing the right thing if she's not putting forth the effort on her end.  *hug*

  • How do you let a toddler dictate your life and make demands of other adults?! Blech, sounds like the worst type of parent/kid to be around.  I get that people have stuff come up once in a while, but I really hate people who are frequently wishy washy about keeping plans.  It's basically like saying they have no respect for your time.  I tend to eventually stop asking those people to make plans.
