I'm sorry I said these were 'crappy' people and was judgmental (as Bill pointed out). People who don't show up because of anxiety are not crappy people, I didn't mean you guys. It's my friend who I know does it to pull some sort of self-driven power play and it really irks me.

I know. I knew for sure we had plans. Even asked a couple times before the planned date to meet to see if we were still meeting. She responded with yes definitely. She has done this so many other times. It is most likely how it is with your friend. She is probably doing it to get some sort of power trip. Those with anxiety is different. It is one thing to have anxiety, but another to do it to manipulate.
And what is even worse is that later in the same day, I will see her posting photos of herself with other people on the day we planned on meeting. So most likely I am like a back up option to her. She may even say she is too busy on a certain day and just can't hang out and then post pictures of herself hanging out. So it is definitely a power trip. I'm sorry you have to deal with that.
