The Flakey Friend


You've got the entire weekend planned! The school dance will kick it off, and then you're going to chill together you 'till you can't keep your eyes open any longer! Sounds like an awesome time, huh!? Well, your awesome time comes to a screeching hult when you find out one of your BFF flakes out on you. Then suddenly, your weekend plans are nonexistent.

My best friend Jenny, always, and I mean always, changes the plans on my friends and I at the last minute. Sarah, Jenny, and I always sit at the same lunch table everyday and we've been planning on going to the dance together for weeks. Jenny said her mom could drive us there and we had everything perfect. We were even going to have a sleepover at her house that night. The dance is finally coming up this weekend, and we were all so excited. 

So then yesterday at lunch, Jenny drops a bomb on us, and says she doesn't want to go to the dance anymore, Sarah's and my jaw dropped. Jenny said "What?" I just don't feel like going anymore." Sarah and I got really upset and were explaining to her that she always does this at the last sec. 

Then, the next day, Jenny asked my other good friend Taylor if she could sit at her table because she said Sarah and I were being big jerks! Like, what!? She canceled the plans and now we have no ride to the dance!

BFF Fix-It: Since she's well known for flaking on you, you might want to start making plans without her, but still include her. It totally sucks that she ruined the plans, but if its something that happens every time, just make sure you don't let her be a part of the major plan making, this way if she flakes, your whole plan isn't ruined. You could also try talking it out or writing her a nice li'l letter that explains you include her 'cause you WANNA hang out with her....so you hate it when she ditches last min.
