I seem to scream, "Walk all over me!" All my friends do it, and people I'm not so close to. I'm always getting canceled on or "I'll be late" type of stuff. Its only started a few months ago, but its starting to get on my nerves. In fact, my closest friend does it the most. When I talk to her about it, she acts all bitchy and it makes me feel like I've done something wrong.
Should I say something to people? And if I should, what would I even begin to say?

People usually don't mean to let you down but many people are just slack. Be confident in yourself and depend less on others. If they change their mind or don't show up, have a back up plan and go have fun without them or with someone else. You can't control others but you can controll yourself.
Have fun in your life and spend time with quality people. Birds of a feather flock together.

It's a lack of respect you are getting. And you deserve respect and nothing less. Do not let people disrespect you. But don't be a bitch about it. Just say something the next time your best friend or someone else decides to get "bitchy" with you. You know say anything that will let them know you know that it's not cool for them to treat you like that. Something simple like "Don't get smart.", keep your tone firm to let them know you're serious. Or when they cancel on you tell them like it is, it's not cool. Voice your opinion. Always.
