Or Maybe it's the Tremendous Body Odor

I would estimate that at least one third of the times that we make plans to get together with friends, they end up cancelling and backing out on us. We'll arrange something, then they'll remember a previous engagement or something else will come up or whatever.

I wouldn't feel bad if it were just one set of acquaintances doing this, but it seems to be the same for anyone we hang out with.

I mean, hell, if we're that annoying just don't agree to the plans in the first place. It would save us a lot of planning and headaches. Often, it even costs us money, and that's annoying.

I can take this several ways, I guess. A.) Folks are secure enough with our friendship to feel that we won't be bothered by it. B.) We are doormats. C.) Our friends (or relatives, as the case may be) are inconsiderate jerks. D.) We are the lowest on the friendship totem pole E.) All of the above.

Well, it happened again. Bah. Hanging out at the house and watching a movie sounds like fun anyway.
