A friend of mine used to cancel appointments a lot. A common friend of ours got really pissed about having their appointments canceled repetedly, often very late or last minute. Their friendship broke over it, tough it was only the last staw.

Appointments i had with my friend got canceled too a lot. I spoke about it with her and it turned out that she was having mental health issues and just didn't find the curage to be open about it. So we talked it over and now the agreement is that i always treat plans we make as optional. A cancelation is expected and never a big deal, i'll always have a backup plan ready.

I guess what i'm saying is, don't think it nececarily has to be about a person not wanting to meet with you, sometimes they just can't. And that is fine.

Communication? In my friendship? It's less likely than you think!

[-] laranis@lemmy.zip 8 points 5 days ago

You're a good friend and compassionate human being. Honestly, more energy than I would probably have invested but I respect the hell out of you for it.

I realized my husband and I had truly become southern Californian when we considered canceling plans over “rain” (0.1” over the day).

My new home is in the Nordics, and first snow barely impacts traffic. Trains and buses are on time. It always makes me chuckle with schadenfreude because my old home was and still is the opposite: snow = chaos. Accidents, ridiculous delays, traffic jams...

Canceling "because it snowed" would not be a good excuse here. Unless you're a plow operator.

On the flipside, the moment the temperature climbs over 30°C, we're all melting!

Sincerely, Dane barely keeping it together in 24° 😁

Dude, it's 27° here in New England and I'm dying. I feel ya. I was born for the cold.

It's now climbed to 29 here and I'm sweat fountain whenever I leave the area of my floor fan for more than a minute 🥵😄

I too am built for the cold, quite literally!

I'm trying hard to bike away most of the seal blubber, though 😁

I asked Mr. Bunnys to bring my water bottle upstairs and he said no, he had more important things to do.

Usually he isn’t so curt so I knew something was up and “angrily” demanded he show what was more important…

Anyways. He was right.

As a road cyclist, that makes complete sense.
