I'm getting tired of people in my life saying they will do something, then they will cancel plans last minute or not call me back until the end of the day. I really do try to give people the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes they do have valid excuses, but since I always try to put time aside for them and rarely ever cancel, it gets frustrating. They always apologize and explain, but I feel horrible and disappointed. Plus, it breaks my trust, because when I can't reach them, I wonder: are they not going to get back to me until 10:00 at night, or will I hear from them in an hour or so? When they do get back to me, I act nice about it and accept their apology. I have a hard time with confrontation and would like to know how to approach them without being pushy or driving them away.

Can anyone relate? It makes me feel unworthy when this happens, or at the very least confused and left hanging.
