Excuse me while I rant

If you say that you want to hang out, and I call you on the pre-arranged day, leave you a voice message, and later call you again, there's a certain next step that you must take. RETURN THE PHONE CALL! Get it? Follow-through with our plans; don't fall off the face of the Earth.

If you claim that I am one of the most important people in your life, yet you haven't responded to a voice mail or a text message in five months because your ''life is too busy'', I've gotta believe that you just don't care enough. If you can't take 10 minuets out of your oh-so-busy life of working at a freakin' Verizon store, why the hell do I still try to maintain our friendship?


People, I thought there was an unwritten rulebook of phone etiquette, but apparently not. However, what is apparent is that I am the only one left with manners in this world.

Maybe I should stop. Maybe I should no longer be the person who tries to get in contact--and stay in contact--with people when they're not pulling their own weight. Maybe, if they don't have time for me, then I won't have time for them. Maybe I should just cut them out of my life and be done with it.

But why must it come to that? All that I'm asking for is reciprocation; reciprocation of a freaking phone call!

RECIPROCATION! Is that too much to ask?


Maybe I'm just too good for this world...
