hello everyone, how will you feel if someone keep you a promise but by the end of the day he forgot it and then he will say maybe next time I will keep it in mind? it happened to me I felt really dismayed to that I really don't inform him that he has a promise to me but instead I let him know it by his own but sad to say he just forgot. That is why I don't easily trust those people who keep a promise to me? I just let them show it rather than promising it and at the same time I also don't keep a promise if I cannot grant it. how about you? share it to us,,

People who cannot keep promises should not make them in the first place. That is the sad part because oftentimes the victims believe them. when the promises are broken, we lose faith in that person's sincerity. The best thing to do is not to be too expectant. If the promises hold true, good for you. If it does not, just move on. It takes all kinds of people to make the world.

hello thanks for your response, yes, I don't really trust now those people who will keep them promise I rather to let them do it first before anything because it really hurts when you get really disappointed. Thanks for your opinion yeah, they never think that all those people hold their promise will not trust them anymore. thanks

I know everybody has been into this being promised by someone and then happened not keeping that promise. When someone promises me of something yes I felt happy but doesn't expect to much. I have learned my lesson once and I don't want it to happen again. We may not avoid it to be promised but it's up to us also as to how we expect it. Sometimes expecting too much makes us disappointed. I'm not the kind of person who always give promises especially if I wasn't that assured that I can give it in time. So when I say I'll do it then I'll do it, but if ever I didn't make it then I double the worth.

hello thanks for your response, yeah, maybe you are right that I should learned my lesson now because it is really hurt when you expecting too much to others. It is better to not expect rather than expecting much. right? but still I am disappointed and I don't really now want to trust any other promise now. thanks for your opinion.

I will react basses upon the situation because of which he failed to keep the promise.If he had some important work and did it unintentionally then i would leave him.But if his action was intentional then my reaction will be very hard for him to digest

hello thanks for your response, Yes, you actually don't know what really happened. right? that is why you explain to me the right and the wrong side and by the way I don't really understand why does he keep a promise? If he is busy on that time then why did he make that kind of promise that can really break and hurt feelings of other. thanks for your opinion..

They say promises are made to be broken! Yes, it's very dismaying and frustrating on the part of those who had been promised. I always experience this with my life partner, promising me to do that and these but in the end, had forgotten it without recourse!I guess I got to blame it to ageing!

When someone promised me something and she/he forgets it, i would really remind him and see to it that he fulfills it. But if he says he will and forget again, sorry but i will not believe you anymore and i will also forget you as my friend.
