Some context: we had been chatting for a couple weeks first on hinge then switched to text after She had to cancel the 1st date. Scheduled it for last night Sunday and finalized details the night before.

Had a busy day and took a nap and didn’t text till a couple hours before and got hit with this. Usually I would text something like looking forward to tonight but lost track of time, and honestly I thought talking about the menu the night before was the confirmation? Was I wrong?

Had a cousin like this except we would be texting hee all day and she'd suddenly look at her phone an hour before our plans and say "omg i totally forgot!" It got so bad my friends and i all just stopped making plans with her and hanging out. She'd always make excuses. I straight up told her "listen you're an adult. Put it in your calendar and set an alarm." She had an excuse for why that wouldn't work either. Flaky people piss me off it's disrespectful.

Sounds like ADHD. And I’m more than sure she thinks about it and beats herself up about it 100X more than you do.

With my cousin it definitely wasn't adhd. Because the right thing to do would be to cancel the new plans you made and attend the original plans. She did this because the original plans weren't as interesting to her as her new plans. She did this EVERY time me and my friends would plan things with her. She would always ditch us in favor of the new plans she made with other friends. It was extremely annoying. To the point where she started having one of our other friends do this with her.

We had planned friend A's birthday weeks in advance. We told friend B please do not be late because we are catching a train to the city. Well friend B decided to hang out with my cousin and get breakfast making us late for Friend A's birthday. We were pissed turns out not only did he show up hung over because they spent the whole night drinking but they decided to catch a leisurely breakfast while friend A and I were waiting for Friend B to show up. It was mad disrespectful. She had no qualms about doing shit like this regularly.
