How Irritated are You Allowed to Get at Friends?

I have this best friend. Love her to death, been through thick and thin in college and if I was a man I would have married her, but I digress. Inevitably, she makes promises to visit and then goes completely A-wall until the period of time said visit was suppossed to occur, has passed. I'm trying to think how many times this has occurred....thrice?

I do not buy the 'busy' excuse. She does not HAVE kids. She is a teacher, and last I checked, the damn schools are all CLOSED. I understand we live states away, but if that is the case, just say it. Too far, so sorry. Don't make me feel like an ASS for making three unreturned phone calls and at least 2 emails on the subject. Do not make me feel like some girl stalking some boy she just made out with and is never hearing from again.

I would like to think I'm not a huge societal reject that my own supposed 'best friend' is more than a little blowing me off. And save me the calling me AFTER New Years and telling me how sorry you are that you couldn't take 5 minutes to return a phone call. YOU DO THIS ALL THE TIME IN CASE YOU HADN'T NOTICED.

Really.

Yes, really.

And every time you do, I just feel like a complete reject, like the girl not getting called for a prom date, like I even need any blows to the self esteem from the people that are suppossed to be there to prevent attacks on it. Please realize you do this and make an effort not to anymore, it's all I ask.
