But I don't need his permission or his blessing to stop being friends with him. When he wrote that it was up to me, it came across self-righteous of him, as though he had to get the last word in. There was no contrition, no apology, no guilt for not showing up and not communicating to me ahead of time. He couldn't have cared less, obviously, that he no-showed on me.
I was not talking about this particular guy, he was rude to you for not showing up or appologizing. I was just saying that when someone gives you the choice to unfriend them etc., it's not the same as this guy who is a jerk.

When reading all these articles about naricissists and toxic people etc., it can be easy to start thinking that anyone who says certain things or acts similar to what is described is automatically a bad person. There is really no such thing as a perfect person and people can have some behaviors that are not all that desireable or are imperfect, yet that doesn't always mean they are a totally bad person.
Thanks for this!
