What Is It With My Female Friends? they are so unreliable!

So when we get together and make a plan they are all for it. Yay alright let's go! blah blah.

When the day comes they start laying out excuses/other events they have to attend. It start out as a 4-5 people thing,
becomes a 2 people outing instead.

I never had problems like this with my other (girls/guys) friends back home or where ever! When we make plans YOU SHOW UP FOR THEM. I don't know, it really urks me when people break promises especially when i move the event to another day and they are like "alright." THEN the next day they make another excuse! Geez just say no from the beginning rather than inconveniencing everybody else?

I once had a lunch meeting with my friend who I haven't seen in months. We rescheduled twice because she kept on forgetting about it then I was like "you know what? screw you I'm not that close to you anyhow =_=." I texted her and it was just like "OH we had that today huh? sorry I've already eaten, can we reschedule?"

Do you guys have friends like these? When they want to hang out it happens but when another person in the group makes plans, they never show up/make excuses. One friend seems to have ditched us for another group instead (which is an act I detest the most) when I thought she was sick. I go into myspace and it just says stuff like "yesterday was amazing" or something with her other guy friend replying to it.

This is them without boyfriends, I can only imagine it's going to get worse. Do you guys have super unreliable friends who makes excuses/ditches you for other people? I never had this happen before (since like middle school or something! Oh the drama ROFL) and it seems really immature to me.

I think I'm just going to find new friends, I really honestly don't even want to see their faces.

Sounds like club meets.
"Hey you showing up?
"ya definitely"

*After the thing*
"wth where were you?"
"I had stuff to do"

It's common.

I tend to be the one that has a sudden change. I guess I'm full of excuses but I'm not the type to make excuses during sports "I could've done better but I hurt my ankle."
If I do plan to show up I am so paranoid I will be late I will get up 6 hours in advanced and sit in the house for at least 4 hours till it's time to meet up. Taking note I leave at least half an hour to get to my location.

Sometimes I don't want to go out, sometimes there's someone I'd rather not be in the same room with or planet.

If I miss something then I miss something, that's my fault, everything comes at a cost.

i can totally relate ! LOL.
like, i have lots of friends outside of my main 'group'..
but i won't hang out with them all the time,
cuz i'm only close to a few of them in their 'groups' of friends.

so, i mainly make plans with my friends who i'm closer with, but they suck =____=;
like, at the beginning of the year they were all like "OMG! LET'S GO TO SEMI-FORMAL~~~"
and it's like.. next month? and you start buying tickets tomorrow,
and now they're all like .. "um.. idk if i'm gonna go" and it's pissing me off LOL.
like, it'd be okay if i was the one who mentioned it or something =.=;
but they're the ones who brought it up and told me to go >__>;

Haha, my group of friends is kinda similar but different too...
We all like to say "um... maybe" a lot so no one EVER has a concrete answer.
But instead of small get-together like yours, our gatherings are always like 10+ people so it's ok when ppl don't show up...
I guess it must really suck to have unreliable friends that leaves the party with just 2
Try organizing something and reminding them constantly about it ^^ like text them the day before!

Some of my friends are like that, and I'll admit, I'm like that at times too but only because I am busy or I don't really want to go anymore, there's always a reason why I can't make it, unless I notice how the only people going are people who I don't really know then I'll make an excuse to not go so I don't have to feel all left out or something.

i have a good friend who does that. eh i'm getting used to it. when he makes plans to chill with me, i always expect it not to happen. nd usually i'm rite, except for the couple of times he's pulled through.

yeah happens once to me
They don't respect you that's why.
if it happens, don't ask to reschedule.
In fact, leave them alone for 1 month not hanging out with them.

Then might try again, if they're still like that, ditch them, useless friends.

If for some reason they asked you to hang out before the 1 month, simply say no laugh.gif

It could be an informal way of them saying "I don't want to be your friend anymore"

This happens every so often but I'm ok with it tongue.gif Usually it only happens when I go out in groups.

To be honest, it annoys me more when you go out of your way to plan something and out of nowhere they bring someone along.
And usually at the last minute too =_=

Or you end up being the third wheel or something >_> lolol. There's always worse situations.

It always happens. Like a group of friends and there's always a half that's pessimistic about doing something or they don't "feel like it" so thats why they don't do it. It really annoys me a lot as well too. i feel you. and there's this one time we were planning on having a road trip to an amusement park and we ended up settling the issue for like 2 or 3 hours at like 2AM in the morning. and guess what? we all ended up leaving the house and going home to sleep. Well not similar to your situation, but I hate how if you're mad good friends with a group and they end up ditching or flaking because of something else then they're not worth it for your time. Let them make plans.

that always happens, that's why you never only invite 2-4 people, i'd invite 4+ just in case some back out, but i'm never the one organizing hang outs, however i do hate it when stuff like that happens. it just gets me pissed so i end up leaving too.
