Don't whine and find new friends. If they can't be bothered with you then they're obviously not good friends, are they?
Tell them how you feel. If they still are indifferent/aren't bothered about socialising and being friends then just spend some of your free time understanding yourself and discovering new interests/sports/hobbies and through that you will inevitably make new friends who are hopefully more true to the meaning of a friend.
I agree. Talk to them first. Try to confront them in a 'diplomatic' way, don't accuse them directly but try to wrap it up a bit: "Hey mate, I was expecting you on monday, what happened?" Make sure he has your cellphone number or some other way to contact you. At least then he has no excuse "Guys, how about I find out a way to get to London, and you look up the times/find a place to stay/.. ?" I'm sure you will come up with something. Um sorry didn't really get that part.. could you rephrase that? If it doesn't improve.. well, maybe it is indeed time to look for other interesting people. Losing friends sucks. But so does feeling bad about 'friends' being lousy.
Maybe the reason they never take notice of you is because you don't give anyone a chance to understand when you talk... <A88>
wtf at all this advice... you cant MOAN at a friend to make him more of your friend do you know how sad that would look lol different people are different types of mates to certain people. i have mates i can rely on for anything and that i would give them anything i have. i also have mates which i see once in a while and stuff (but i still dont treat them like crap) the mate probably just doesnt know you think your 'chums' when ur not. why dont you just take ur friend relationship down a notch or if you are cool then he will shift his up one peace
I concur. I concur again. Man, it took me three times of reading your first post just to understand exactly what you were whining about.....sheesh.
Dude, Ice, use some ****ing punctuation for christ's sake. It took me 4 attempts to get to the middle of your post, then I simply gave up.
seems like their just lazy and you arent. doesnt mean they arent friends! it means there lazy! if it was a gf then it would be a differant matter, but as it is, just find some other guys to hang out with! as well as the guys you know already. I have to have sets of friends in differant areas cause me and all my friends are too lazy (in the most) to go anywhere! In notts is perfect cause everyone is just lazy enough to goto others houses for LANs edit: oh yeah, and "boo" to this kind of thread edit2: or just agree with what was said above, maybe jestingly, but still
why do you guys all strop so much? i understood his post the first time i read it. the guy is not conveying litarary art, are you all so incapable that you cant read something if its not punctuated correctly? its just a msg on a board. i dont get these people who consistantly try to "F7" everyone... btw i dont think its about being 'lazy'. im lazy as hell but im still not a nob end to my mates
The point of punctuation is to enable the meaning of the written word to be clear. If he wants people to advise him, he ought to have the courtesy (and sense) to help them by explaining what he's on about, in English. That way, he'll stand a better chance of getting the appropriate advice.
I don't agree with some of you lot appearing moaning at this guy about posting this, and why do so many of oyu need to point out the lack of grammar etc...and in my opinion it does sound like you are almost "too" nice as you seem to be the one putting in all the effort as a "mate" and not getting much back...but I wouldn't give up on them personally I'd let them know how you feel..
