In this case tho since Raindropvampire says it's a pattern of behavior then I'd look at it a bit differently.
Arguing whether it is a lie seems useless because at that point you know not to take it seriously. I'm not sure I can see any benefit in calling them lies unless you're keeping score.

See this all comes down to the promise itself and the intentions. If it is a pattern of behavior the person themselves probably are making promises they dont' plan to keep or don't really take them seriously. I think it's really dependent on that. Case by case basis. Can't really say yes, they broke it... they lied. Gotta ask why it was broken and whether they tried to keep that promise or even intended to.
