The world is a busy place these days. You can't go a few feet down the street without seeing someone multitasking: texting and eating a sandwich while driving into a telephone pole. However, it seems that most people aren't set up for this kind of craziness. Invariably, the more you do, the more things fall through the cracks. "To err is human," and all that, but whatever happened to taking personal responsibility for these mistakes?
If you're going to be late (or have to cancel), call. If you can't attend the wedding/party/event, send in your RSVP with regrets. If you have any inkling ahead of time that your schedule has a conflict, please inform the parties expecting you ahead of time. Don't just sit around thinking it'll be easier to just let it go. TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS, OKAY?!?
In short, don't make promises or commitments you have no intention, desire, or even motivation to keep. Be SINCERE.
Also, if you're already a responsible person, try your hardest not to count on anyone else. It's obvious that he can't handle the responsibility.
