§ A date cancelled on you the last minute or, they just cannot be in a relationship right now because they are not ready, or, they couldn't respond to your text for several days because something happened … sound familiar?
§ How do you know if their excuse is legitimate or just an excuse? It is all in the intention.
§ Some common excuses can be:
- work / life is really busy: no one is THAT busy, people make time / room for things that are important to them and that’s not you at this time
- family / friend / work emergency: usually just an excuse, these events are quite rare, the fact that it happened when they had plans with you is either just bad luck or a big fat lie
- sudden illness: while it could be true it’s probably an excuse, something more interesting came up maybe, you should be able to hear it in their voice
- car broke down: uh huh, tell them to send you a picture
- not looking for anything serious right now: everyone will commit to someone they want to commit to, they’re confirming that they aren’t interested in a relationship with YOU but might commit to someone who does rock their world (sorry!)
§ How do you really know? Well, some excuses are legitimate and if they make new plans with you immediately and DON’T cancel them then it’s a good sign, if they give you the runaround then “liar liar pants on fire”
§ Remember, actions, not words mean everything
§ POST IT NOTE / MANTRA: I will not believe everything I hear, even if I really want to
