The Breakdown
Mostly A’s: Death Before Flaking
You are as dependable as FedEx and won’t miss a drinks date-even if it’s inside an active volcano.
But before you sh*itlist a friend for flaking, remember: it’s okay for you to say no sometimes too. Respectfully canceling plans, in advance, won’t send you to hell on a spaceship.
Mostly B’s: The Neurotic Semi-Flake
You’re hyper-aware of people’s feelings. Sometimes, you’ll flake because of so-called ‘hints’ that the other person doesn’t feel like meeting up.
Don’t overthink it. Just because she says she’s tired doesn’t mean she’s trying to weasel out of your wine date.
Mostly C’s: Flakier than Puff Pastry
Weddings? Funerals? If you don’t feel like it, you won’t go. Props for taking time for you, but you don’t want to be the ‘Girl Who Cried Emergency’.
Maybe you flake a lot because you say yes to too many things. The fix: don’t overbook and you won’t over bail.
