Waiting

Hi dear its tough situation but its not worse no u know she might drop in so it wont be Surprise for u just do ur normakl work, start ur work and as soon as she comes, enjoy her company as i feel its not waiting driving u bonkers but u want to meet her on ASAP basis. i am patience tooo and if i know some one is coming, its make it relax, but i prefer to have time idea to be around so visitors dont have to wait for me bye

I hate waiting. It drives me nuts. But sometimes they say the more you wait on something or someone, the more it, he or she never comes. So I don't make my expectations too high. That way if it, he or she never comes, I won't be too disappointed or irritated.

Did your friend stop by to see you? I sure understand being anxious when it comes to this sort of waiting. I get impatient with this sort of waiting as well. What I've learned to do is give my cell phone number to the person I'm waiting for and leave the house if I feel like it. Waiting two days is a long time. I'm a patient person also but this kind of waiting around the house makes me nuts.

waiting also wears me out. even if i'm doing something while waiting, like eating in a restaurant while waiting. even if i just waited for 15 minutes! it already wears me out. and i can't do what you're doing, waiting for the day that your friend might come, i would have already forgotten about it. ^__^;; but at times like what i first mentioned, i can wait for 30 minutes, even if i'm already worn out, only if the meeting is really important.

i hate waiting but i was never the one who gets upset for long. once the person i was waiting on arrived the upsetting feeling vanishes too in that very instant. i feel very much relieved to even ask why he/she's late in an upset tone.

I normally make a specific meeting time such as come over for lunch or whatever. I did this with an old friend - and asked her over for lunch (12 for 12.30). By 1.30 I was starving and she still hadn't turned up so I ended up starting to nibble at the lunch. She never appeared and I still do not know why!

Most of the time it wears me down. i just do not want to wait for long. actually you can say I am not that much patient to wait long. may be in this situation i also have waited like you. but its actually sucks.

I hate that type of waiting. Whenever I can, I try to pinpoint when company is coming.I can wait for Friday. I can wait for Christmas/Hanukkah, but I can't wait for company.

I really don't like waiting though I am the very punctual one. I don't like it but I'm really patient. It's just that I don't like people standing me up. As long as I'm in a good condition, I'll wait for anyone anytime! But if it's in the wrong place and in the wrong time, I won't wait anyone anymore and go by myself! Oh well, I'm just wasting my time waiting for people. There are so much to do other than waiting.

Waiting for someone to show up always drives me bonkers. I find that all I have to do is make a big mess in the house then your company will show up. I had that happen today. A friend hasn't been here for a long time and he decided to "Pop In"...duh...I was cleaning out my tupperware closet and had it all over the kitchen...I was embarrased but he said it didn't bother him...that's when someone will show up.

I understand what you feel. I am sometimes like that if you wait someone and find ways to connect on that person but seems no clearance how it is. Wondering if how's going or what's up? Just like waiting for nothing....? I don't like to think negative but it can't avoid if especially that person not that often currently communicating with you as to compared before..sad

Yes it does me, I have a friend who will say that she is going to be in town and she will call, I do not see her often and so I get really excited, unfortunately 9 times out of ten she lets me down and does not turn up. I rush around getting all my jobs done and make no plans for the day and then she leaves me waiting, and waiting. She never phones me either to let me know, she always leaves it until she knows I have gotten over it! She is a pest, but she did come the other week when she said she would, I think she knew that I was getting fed up of being let down. Hope you have fun when she comes anyway.

I cannot bear this! I don't like waiting for someone, (i guess no one enjoy that) and I don't like others waiting for me either. If I plan to visit someone, then I will call him in previous,and tell him when I will be there.I don't like make people waiting or waiting for people! Its so rude to do this!

Waiting makes me tired...and frustrated especially when i wait for someone and they don't bother to show up or call. It makes me feel like they don't value my time or my friendship and some people..i've just given up on totally they say they will show up but they don't. Events...i get excited about and i'm sooo not good at waiting for them but then when they come i always wish it could be just two more days or longer to the wait to lengthen the excitement.

Hi jillhill, You have a difficult situation, I hope your friend turns up soon. Blessings.

I find that type of situation fustrating. It happened to me back in January. You really want to see this person because you haven't seen them in so long. But, their schedule changes or whatever happens. I get antsy and I also don't like to start something in case they happen to stop by. Then I get upset because I might not want to stop what I am doing. Too bad you can't get a day and at least a morning, afternoon or night time frame. Good luck! And have fun with your friend when you get to see them.

This would annoy me not even knowing whether she is gonna show or not. I would want an exact day and approximate time and if that wasn't possible to give I would give my mobile phone number and to say to text me when near as I have things I need to be getting on with and if I happen to be down town shopping they will have to text me and await my return, the only thing I can think that is worse than this is waiting for a repair man to arrive and you just get given morning, so you are up and about early and they arrive afternoon or don't arrive at all, oh poor you, can understand your excitement in wanting to see your friend but to leave you with no time frame a bit naughty. Hope whe she does arrive you have a really enjoyable time hough. Ellie :D

personally id go about my business same as always, and if she shows up.. she shows up. i find it rather inconsiderate of this friend to say i might be here today or maybe tommorow, and knowing that yer waiting on her.. doesnt call or anything to even let you know. thats something the cable company does.. sometime tween 8am and 5pm.. and if not.. maybe tommorow. it isnt very "friend" like behavior at all.

I hate that and generally dont hang around, i prefer people to give me atime they will arrive so I can fit my day to day stuff around it. Im not very patient at all with waiting and I hate lateness I think thats really rude

Well, me personally am always late. I really don't mean to be late. It seens,everytime I have an appointment, it never fail. Someone will call, or drop by, or have a problem. But I still don't like to have to wait too long.I don't think I would except my friend not giving me a time frame, or at lease a day, with some type of timeline. I don't think no one is so busy, that they can't take a little time out for a friend. Don't they know that your time is just as important as theirs. The things we do for friendship.
