She doesn't think about us.

Do you know, she sounds like my friends Mum (I am not kidding) who I am pretty sure has mental health problems that have remained undiagnosed all her life. The not mentioning an ill son ever again is just bizarre isn't it?

Whoaaa, it would rattle my cage too. Being late often can't be helped as situation arise but to offer no apology or freely explain the reason for being late is just plain rude.

As for meeting up with you AFTER being in the company of someone with Covid, well, that to me is beyond comprehension!

You're right when you say * she has no consideration*, you can't change the way someone behaves but you can change the way you handle it.

If someone phoned as I was leaving the house I would either ignore it or tell the caller I could talk later.
She often uses this excuse and is never on time. Another time her shoes broke and she popped home to change but it took her about 20 minutes to do that!

Do you need this person when you have others who know the meaning of the word respect?

If you've known her for 50 years, had you warned your other friend she's always late? How long has she known her?

My late best friend was always late, in the end we always went later than the meeting time. My late husband didn't tolerate it and on several occasions, even going half an hour later, she still didn't arrive and we left. She died aged 52 and I regret not waiting now, she just didn't have any sort of consciousness about time.

All I can say is dump her !!

Disorganised /user/loser. Yet one of those who manages to get others running around for her-not my type at all. Your other pal had right idea!

She shouldn't have turned up at all - after being with someone who has covid.
Obviously she should have let you know that - beforehand, not once she was in your company.
Did you stay with her? I wouldn't.

Again, why is she your friend?

What are her redeeming qualities that make up for the bad ones?

The ball is in your court - fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, same on me
