Is that too aggressive? I'm terrified of conflict, and I'm afraid that telling her that will end our friendship. But at the same time, I'm really mad. And I can't continue to let people walk all over me. I've done enough of that.
I'm going to admit at the outset I'm an old fart. I would be highly upset if someone sent me a TEXT cancelling our plans. At least have courtesy to call and tell me personally. Stand me up because "something better" came along? I'd be rip snorting PO'd!

As for you reply to her, how about "No, we are not cool. I deserve better than that. You need to make me more of a priority. Call me so we can find a day and time that works for both of us."

I don't believe you are being too aggressive. You sound assertive. I understand not wanting to lose your friendship with her, but do you really want to continue in any relationship where the person disrespects you this way?
Thanks for this!
