Love: Let's do this again!

Let's do this again!

Today, for the first time in months, my best friend agreed to hang out with me. After waiting, three hours for him to show up, I called to see what was taking him so long. He told me he couldn't come because he needed to get a haircut. FML

Today, my best friend and I were supposed to meet up at an outdoor beer garden. We’ve both had a hard time with quarantine, so it was a great escape. Instead, she kept me waiting for nearly two hours before I finally left. Her excuse? Her boyfriend, who she sees every day, really wanted to have sex. FML

Today, I made plans with an old friend that I haven't seen in years. We agreed to meet at a diner and I told him I'd be standing outside. I watched him pull up, look right at me, then do something with his phone. Seconds later, I got a text saying, "Sorry, but I'm busy today and can't make it." FML

Today, I let a friend cut my hair. I soon went from having a 'fro to looking like I lost a fight with a lawn mower. FML

Today, after months of her begging me, I let my girlfriend cut my hair for the first time. It turned out so badly that we are now "taking a break until it looks normal again." FML

Today, a colleague texted me to say that I needed a haircut. Today was also the first day I attempted to ‘do’ my hair in about 5 years. Clearly, I shouldn’t have bothered. FML

Today, I let my friend cut my hair and after a few minutes, she looked at what she had done and then she ran out of the room, laughing. FML

He works hard for the money

Today, my friend canceled plans the day before the event, after planning to go together for over a month. He said he needed to work, which would be understandable, if his only job wasn’t for Uber where he literally sets his own hours. It’s too late to find another friend to go with. FML

Today, I prepared for my first date in two years. I shaved my legs, did my hair and nails, painted my face, found the perfect outfit, then waited for hours for a man who never came. FML

Today, I got the haircut I've been wanting for ages. I then called my girlfriend of two years and asked what she would do if I got a haircut. She told me she would dump me and then invited me to her house for dinner. I'm scared to go. FML

Better off

Today, I decided that since my best friend of 25 years always finds a reason not to come when I invited her to see the house I bought 6 months ago, I would stop asking, and wait for her to make the first move. Did I say today? I meant 14 months ago. I'm still waiting. I guess we're not friends anymore. FML

I think that is the evidence he is no longer your best friend. He has moved on as tends to happen in life, so it may be best if you do to.

Who wants to hang out with their best friend when they have bad hair?

I'd say that is the evolution of the "I have to wash my hair" excuse. Move on!

We haven’t seen your friend so maybe he did need a haircut. If he’s a guy that should only take like 30min. If your friend is a women then it could take longer depending on what she’s getting done. Either way your friend should have called/texted and said he/she is running late or not able to come at all.

Why would you wait 3 hours before texting him?? You need to value your own time more

Read "How to make friends and influence people" by Dale Carnegie. That will give you the people skills to make new, real friends. Also join a new activity like larping or dancing or volunteering for conservation or something. This will help you meet new people. And dump your friend.

You live in Portland. What kind of friends were you expecting?

Sounds like maybe he isn't your best friend anymore. When my former BFF began ditching me for a bad crowd or made up stupid excuses, that was a sign for me to move on with my life. Perhaps it's time for you to do the same.
