(((Jammer))) Sometimes, when I'm charitable, I think that friends who don't follow through on commitments think that it's no big deal, and that we, as friends, will understand.
When I'm feeling LESS than charitable, which is a frequent state of mind, I think that it's all about me and that I'm not important enough to others to rate an on-time appearance, or whatever my expectations were.When you next speak, if you have the nerve (I'm sure I have some handy, I know I left it lying around somewhere, if'n you want to borrow it), tell her that being left in the lurch makes you feel pretty angry. Maybe that's all she needs to hear.
I hope the suckiness factor diminishes quickly for you!!
