If I rememered what feelings were, mine might be hurt.*

Y'all remember my bumping into a friend at Einstein's last week, who suddenly remembered I existed and said, at the door as I was leaving and she arriving, that she needed to talk to me. At my "Should I be worried?" (as in, "What the fuck are you on about?") she didn't care to elaborate. After promising to call, text or facebook (or suggesting I do it), she finally contacts me a week later.

So her first email says:

As I mentioned at Einstein, I really need to talk to you about something, and I was hoping I can see you this Thursday. It's something that's been bothering me for a few weeks now, and it's made me both sad and angry so I kind of want to do it as soon as possible.
Hope to see you on Thursday.

Which, again, dude, one week later? You "really need to talk to me" and it takes you one accidental bumping-into and a whole week to get on it? Uncool. This all flies in the face of the "as soon as possible" sentiment, whacking it with some Irony and Contradiction billboards.

Also, thanks very much for asking if Thursday was okay for me. (Hint: it isn't.) That was a bit demanding and, again, uncool in ways language fails me (hence the use of "uncool".)

So I propose Friday (not that it's great for me, but damn if I'm doing this on the weekend.)

Sure, Friday is fine. Can we meet around 5:30 ~6? Let's meet at Olivier.

I say alright. Next day - today - this is what I get:

Sorry I asked you to meet me as soon as possible, but something important came up, and I can't make it this Friday. Can we meet next week?

Gods only know what that "something important" could be on a Friday evening, but whatever. I emailed her a "Sure" so dry and surly I'm sure it must've curdled the internet on its way to her inbox. Mom thinks I shouldn't even have responded. We both agree, however, that this is no way to behave and a kthnxbai is in order, especially considering previous behaviour. I'm not upset: I'm peeved as all hell.

*Giant HUG* Oh hon, a friend who does something like that is no friend at all =( Any friend who treats you in uncool ways needs a kthnxbai (preferably sooner rather than later), so I agree with your mom on that.
