Nigga looka like scarce <| sep |> This is my rule with BFs , SOs and friends if you can ' t commit to something as simple as being on time OR calling ahead to say you ' re late within a reasonable time frame , then you either 1 don ' t care or 2 have had a late breaking emergency , something which occurs very rarely and which you will later provide an explanation and apology for . When it comes to friends who regularly do this , I ignore and just don ' t rely on those friends to be on timedo what they said they ' d do . When it comes to SOs , BFs and similar who do this , if it ' s a pattern of behaviour , I break up with them . Why ? Because if what we ' re doing together is regularly not important enough for you to turn up on time or at least give a proper reason for not turning up , then the entire relationship is a waste of time . OP , does your BF do things like this often ?
