I don't have friends because i value punctuality.

All of my past friends have been habitually late. Pretty much everyone I know is like this and it causes me a lot of stress because I hate waiting in public somewhere for 15-30 minutes. It's disrespectful and we end up with bad seats or whatever. Even 5 minutes is too late because I always get somewhere a little early or exactly on time. No one understands why I get so angry. IIN?

    This drives me crazy as well, so I really hear you.

    Two of my friends in particular come to mind. Every time we meet, they are more or less half an hour late.

    I've started giving some people a false time now, so like if I want to meet at 3, I'll tell them we're meeting at 2:30 so they can be "late" just as I'm arriving. Works every time.

    According to my Dad, people were always on time back before mobile/cell phones. You told someone what time you were meeting and you just met. I think now we have mobile phones we can just text to say if we're late, so the pressure to be punctual isn't what it used to be.

    Same, you'll have to move to Japan or Germany or these places where people are freaking on time.

    It's part of the "new way" and I love the extra info "bad seats or whatever" that's kinda sexy because I sense you're a bit mad about the movie theaters or something, my last flick was independents day III what movie did you see sweetheart?

        Now that I think about it you seem to be right. The first one was in 1996 if I remember correctly anyways the movie sucked, don't watch it. Blows ass.

            Immature, filthy, arrogant idiots is the best summary I can give you.

    I would imagine there are other issues With your friends, if minor, that add up to make you feel that way. Seems a little overkill to hold someone to only that standard. Being partiers or addicts or inconsiderate is one thing, but would you simply give up a great friend for being late? Myself, for instance, I get anxious sometimes and think a lot which causes me to be late. I don't do it on purpose, but am more mindful of it if it seems like it's becoming a habit. With that said, I had a friend who was a gym bro who was always late, but it was always because of his girlfriend or something really selfish...so I could see where you're coming from with a person like that. Could always get a table before your friend arrives...but I agree mostly. People should be more thoughtful.

    Fact 711: Mice can be taught to tap dance given enough cocaine and patience. But as yet, nobody has made a quality and commercially viable mouse tap shoe.

    You have to pick your priorities.

    Alternately, arrange to meet your friends 15 minutes earlier - and be 15 minutes late yourself. Then you will both be "on time".
