18/F I had a friend agree to come to my house and give me a voice lesson. I offered to pay her and she said she'd be over. She didn't show up on time nor did she call me back after I left her a message. I'll admit, she's not a very reliable person, but how do I let her know I'm not okay with this. Usually when a friend backs out of plans with me, I'll say : "it's okay, no worries..." because it truthfully doesn't bother me that much, but it doesn't mean I want people to treat me like this. So basically, how should I respond when someone doesn't make me a priority? (link)

I have the same problem all the time. I think the phrase "no worries" comes out of my mouth more than anything else. Confrontation is always wicked awkward for me so I tend to phrase it in a way that doesn't sound like I'm blaming the other person. You could say something like "I noticed you were late and didn't return my phone call, so if you're too busy to give me lessons don't worry about it. I completely understand." On the other hand, if you don't feel awkward letting her know that you're not happy with her(which is probably best)then I guess my answer won't really be much help.
