Last Sunday I'd made a plan for this chick to come over to my place. She said she had to go and see a friend's band play, but would be done by 6 and would text me when she was free. At 7 I hadn't heard from. This is our text thread.
S: If you can't make it let me know so I can make other plans.
HB: I'm stuck for another hour I think. I still want to come hang out, but I understand if yo have something else you'd rather do.
S: I'll give you another hour. But if you can't make it let me know. Don 't be rude.
HB: Not trying to be rude. Just got tied up.
S: I understand. I just want you to let me know if you can't make it. It's all good. Cool?
HB: OK.
45 mins later.
HB: Looks like I'm not going to be able to break away for a while. Can we rain check for tomorrow? So so sorry.
S: I work all night Mon, Tue and until midnight Wed. But, I'll give you a chance to make it up to me.
HB: Thanks.
I had a feeling this chick was going to flake, so I had another option planed. I wanted to let her know that I don't appreciate her flaking without seeming needy about it. Do you guys think I handled this well?
