Control, in one word.

We are in our 50's. We have a couple that have bailed on us at the last minute twice. They say they'll repay us for the tickets and that will make things "alright", in their little minds. Bull, not with me. Never again. Rude and self centered.

He is the kind that replies to a message anytime he wants. Days or weeks later. That is simply control.

Nobody needs "friends" like this.
