I get really aggravated when people put me under the pretence that they will spare time for me, and then don't.
I have this annoying tendency to drop everything and be there at a moment's notice for the little things, just because I think that whoever has asked me would appreciate me being there. Things like presents and birthdays and christmases mean absolutely nothing if you can't even make simple time for your friends.
I'm not the kind of person with the world of time on my hands. My best friend who has to make appointments with me will attest to that. I'm just the kind of person that makes time; albeit only a small portion of time for everyone. I actually feel really bad when I'm so hard up for time or energy that I have to say no. And I feel worse having to cancel - I don't do it unless that I am 100% certain it can be postponed without missing out on too much.
Why make plans or promises without having the balls to commit to them? I don't know. If you say you're going to do something, then do it. If you need something finished then get your head in gear and finish it. If uni has taught me ANYTHING, it's that floundering and uncertainty gets you nowhere. Nothing will happen on a 'maybe'. It really is that simple.
I fear that this will be another hospitable trait of mine that will soon be extinct; along with the superhuman tolerance I used to have that breathed its last late last year. (The conclusion I came to a few months after that post was that if I think someone is a wasteman to begin with, the chances are they definitely are, c.f. jjb, tb, fz, mb)
