    I don’t get why people are confused about this.

    Grey was horrible human being first. Green’s reply was a response that horribleness. It’s not like green was genuinely waiting to spring that.

    …probably.

    A: grey is a golddigger, green dodged a bullet

    B: grey thinks green is a lesser choice, green dodged a bullet

    And then grey feels humiliated by grey noticing this.

    I mean its 95% fake but it doesnt really make a difference for discussing it as if it was real.

    I think it deoends on the relationship between the two and the kind of meeting they had planned. If its a date and grey bailed for an other date, thats really shitty. If it was a casual meetup between friends and grey bailed for a dating opportunity, its not that shitty and green was a bit rude with the follow-up, but again depends on their relationship and how they usually communicate. In any case, the last few messages are completrly overboard.

      Grey is already out of the situation by message 3, everything after that is just lashing out due to a bruised ego.

    I hate people now. Nobody wants to keep their commitments. You can invite people to an event and they will all say yes, until a more enticing thing comes along and the flake on you last minute. If you say yes, be there, tell the other person “sorry I already made plans that day” like an adult

      For me the issue is that everyone is always busy.

      Me: hey, how about we meet next Friday

      Person1: I can only do Sunday from 17 to 19

      Person2: I can only do Saturday

      Person3: I can do Sunday but from 19 to 21

      Person4: I can only do the Friday after that

      Or even better, they take 5 days to reply and in the end say something came up.

      But once I manage to find the one date that fits most people and plan something people do show up.

          You mean doodle? It still exists but since polls are literally built into every messaging app now, its obsolete. It could be relevant if you have a one-time meeting with people who dont know each other and dont have a common messaging app.

          Don’t remember the name but I used it couple of times in corpo settings. I think it weird that we have to organize meetings with couple of friends the same way we organized team buildings. I mean, weekends are for resting. Why everyone has everything booked months in advance? I spend every weekend actively but I don’t have a lot of plans that I can’t drop to meet someone.

    We can’t know for certain based on one single conversation. We don’t know the dynamic between these two. We don’t know the intent behind the “thank god” comment. We don’t know if the response was an overreaction, something that’s been building between these two, or what.

    It wouldn’t be smart to make a judgement in this case because we lack full context.

    Greens response could’ve meant (s)he had a busy day at work and was glad to put their feet up. The bluntness met have been unintended.

    Grey then exploded and made it a problem, showing that green actually dodged a bullet.
