So to get fucked over based on a rarely asked thing, that's never anything major, you gotta start questioning the worthiness of your friend. Fuck 'em.<BR/><BR/>@MizJJ<BR/>My little notes to myself are getting longer and longer. <BR/><BR/>@Slish<BR/>You actually make a valid point. The scope of the favor and moreso, what performing the favor symbolizes is not always apparent to the person who is being asked to perform it.<BR/><BR/>I've just come to the tipping point from my perspective. I remember when I was the only cat with a car with a lot of my friends. I remember being asked to use my car, my apartment, asked to lend money, and I was always there. I feel like a damn fool to not be able to ask these cats for anything and be able to count on them.Knockout Zedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16269881581495882209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15047111.post-1162236244122740572006-10-30T14:24:00.000-05:002006-10-30T14:24:00.000-05:00I think I'm gonna go hiiide somewhere..Not Gonna L...I think I'm gonna go hiiide somewhere..Not Gonna LIE not Gonna LIE..I do that shit constantly...Say I'm going to do something then hope the invidual forgets about or finds someone else..<BR/><BR/>Flakes like me are just eager to please the masses..We don't mean to be flaky..Just that we say yes so much and have to follow through on so much other shit that someone might get the short end of the stick...<BR/><BR/>NOW!! I know what you're going to say "Then why say yes" Well maybe at the time we said yes the task at hand was probably doable then you remember you promised to do a favor for someone else that asked first. What do you do? You don't want to flake out on that person since you did the same thing to them that you're about to do to the person who asked for the favor in the first place. <BR/><BR/>Zed all i'm saying is Flakes are misunderstood and need direction. If you explain to us what you need us to do is extremely important and I mean you have to stress IT!!! Like call every other day just to make sure ..lol More than likely the task will be carried out. <BR/><BR/>Its sad. I know.
