It is really hard to find people who do what they say they are going to do. I hate to give up on people but how many times should a person bail on you and you be OK with it? My new attitude toward this is going to be " call me when you are ready to wear your integrity panties". I am not going to waste my time relying on people who repeatedly let me down.
I understand when it has a valid reason. Like " I can't go to the gym, my baby has big red spots all over him". Absolutely, be with your baby. I would think you were horrible if you didn't!! haha But it is when you say " let's go for a run this day" and you get a yeah sure!! then you get a " I will have to see" and then you get an excuse that they could totally work around. I don't care if you want to sit on your ass and find an excuse for doing anything in life. It isn't my life you are ruining. But don't waste my time by making false promises.
I find these people are hard to find. I'm running out of friends. Am I an asshole??

I could not agree more. Same for Shannon. We don't so much get the gradual backing out, and sometimes they don't back out. Instead, they're very late and never call or text or e-mail letting us know they're running late. This is very frustrating, because we could do something constructive with that time. I know there comes an age when upbringing can't be blamed completely, but I think it's obvious whose parents did and didn't bring them up right. Those who came to be considerate on their own? Even more the better.
