Person help: have you ever waiting on someone who promised they will meet you at a certain time, but ends up making you wait longer? - Help.com



This post left anonymously

have you ever waiting on someone who promised they will meet you at a certain time, but ends up making you wait longer?

How do you deal with that? Or tell that person that?

Like what if this person is really busy and needs to get his stuff done, but promises to meet you at a certain time, but ends up making you wait one hour or two hours longer or even longer then the proposed time? What would you do?

And if this person says you know i’m always busy and is usually tired because he has a lot of stuff to do. yet he promised to meet you at a certain time, but doesn’t because he can’t get his stuff done? What can you do if it happens more than once or twice or even more that he’s usually busy?

You have to decide whether he is worth waiting around for all the time. If you can’t put up with it, tell him to stop, and stop seeing him if he doesn’t.

stop wasting your time and find someone who can be punctual. i give everyone the benefit of the doubt once and when they continue to do the same thing over and over i am finished with them. if they are so busy they cant remember you or want to meet you then they really dont care about you.

Some people are horribly like that, it’s the opposite of being punctual.

You need to tell this person that your time is valuable too. It is a sign of respect to be on time, tell him that, and ask him if he respects you. The next time this person is more than 15 minutes late without a phone call, leave and don’t tell them, maybe he’ll get the message.
