I'm trying to do better at times when I tell someone "we should hang out sometime" or "We need to catch up sometime, I'll call you!" but never do.
I hate that a lot of us say that but never follow up. So whenever I'm the one making the statement, I make sure to follow through.
Recently, received a text from an old friend and told him I'd call him. Even with the best intentions, I didn't call until 3 weeks later.
Another friend and I talked about having lunch and it took a month for me to finally get around to asking him. I felt bad about it.
Now once I send an invite and he declines, I'm off the hook as far as I'm concerned. But if they follow up, I'll surely reschedule. Same with phone calls.
It's just something I'm trying to change in my life to make me a better person and not someone who says he'll do something and doesn't.
