In the last 2 weeks, I had arranged to meet with three different people.
...and all three flaked.
Two of them didn't tell me until I had already been waiting for them for 15 minutes at the meeting place and I texted them to find out where they were (while the last just canceled a few days ahead of time... still annoying, but *much* more acceptable, IMO).
A few flaky situations
1. I recently had met three people at training and we got together on a few occasions. Then a couple of times, I had invited them to a few gatherings which they said "Yes" to. Then all three of them said at the last minute that something else came up. - They did this to me twice
2.I had attempted to join a singles group at one church and I was supposed to get baptized but was required to meet with one of the leaders. Both times, she flaked on me.
a. She was supposed to email me and then meet up and the story was - It bounced back
b. The second she invited me out to dinner and when I called to confirm she blew me off , never called back and never showed up
3. A former friend of mine left for the military and agreed to write and call me while in basic combat training which she did not do. Now she is someone who would get mad at you called her out on her flakiness.
