Some of my mates and their lack of commitment to anything. At footy training at the start of the week and mid-week we tend to discuss what we'll do on the weekend. Literally every week one of my good mates will say "maybe", "I might come but I won't go anywhere afterwards" or some other garbage response. Now he's a good bloke and ripper fun when he comes anywhere with us, but for some reason he just seems to be so carefree about whether or not he does anything each weekend. I have no issues with someone wanting to stay home every once in a while, or for a couple of weeks if they're down on cash, feeling a bit down or whatever, but this has been going on since we finished school. He didn't rock up to his life long friends 18th celebrations because "he was busy studying uni preferences" which was a pathetic excuse seeing as he still had ages to worry about them. His parents are known to be real strict and won't let him go overseas till he's 21 (that's when his sister was allowed) so maybe that's a factor, but gee it's hard to put up with this crap weekly.
I'm already imagining how distant he'll be once he finds a girlfriend.
Adding to that, another mate (the mate who got dogged on his 18th above) has recently gotten full-time work Monday through Friday and has completely disappeared on weekends. His girlfriend got a part-time job a while back and would always send messages to her mates saying she was too tired from work (4 hour shifts, maybe three times a week at max) or wouldn't respond at all, and would give similar reasons to her boyfriend if he was coming out with us. Now he seems to be doing the same thing. In the times I was working 5 days a week full-time I found getting out of the house, or doing something with my friends on the weekend great fun and a great way to blow off steam from the working week.
Might sound like I'm being whiny or whatever, but it gets pretty infuriating, especially when I don't see one of them at all (as he lives in the city now meaning he's at least a 25 minute drive away) The majority of my mates are baffled at their behaviour as am I. Are we being unreasonable or are our mates just being a bunch of selfish campaigners at the moment too lazy to catch up with people?
I have the view that you're only going to be a uni student/part-time worker for a short period of life and it's best to make the most of the free time.
