I have a friend who used to do this, I was left sitting in a restaurant for about 40 mins waiting, this was before mobiles. I rang her at home and she said that she was not good at getting organised in the morning. I stopped making arrangements.
Later she invited me to her house to celebrate her birthday and explained that she had depression. I found out that her condition made her want to do things but could not carry them out. At last minute she would just feel stressed and either not turn up or cancel at last minute.
Ironically she moved 300 miles away and when I was going through chemo, she rang every night for about 4 months, she now rings about 3 times a week she is kind and supportive. Im glad I didn't drop the friendship.
