Uncertainty is a bitch

Label me as being importune, but I am so sick of trying to get through to you people, confirming if you're coming tomorrow. Seriously, I am. I don't understand how you cannot give me a straight answer. Yes, I'm coming. Or no, I'm afraid I won't be able to join. I'm not forcing you to make it. I just need assurance. Yes or no. That's all I need to hear. Walk a mile in my shoes and imagine being the middleman or the one who is responsible for passing on the message to the rest of the people about a meetup.

P.S. The meetup is with an ex-lecturer and is concerning studies, so yup, it's important considering Finals is 23 days away.

You tell me you have plans tomorrow morning and might not be able to come for the meetup in the afternoon. Plans with your friends. Well, why can't you can get off early and tell them you have something important in the afternoon, so you can give me a definite yes? Or decide to spend the entire day with your friends, so you can give me a solid no? Why give me all this iffy shit?

You say you'll come tomorrow if you are free during that time. Excuse me? How can you not know if you're gonna be free tomorrow during the decided time? You're a spontaneous* person and you're gonna bail if something comes up tomorrow that inopportunely coincides with this meetup? Very well then. Please help me to understand why in the first place, you claimed to be interested in everything that is going to be settled in the meetup.

What is so tremendously difficult and supposedly painful about deciding whether this meetup is worth your time, and telling me straight up whether or not you will be coming?

Perhaps I shouldn't care so much. You're reluctant to come? Fine. Don't feed me your excuses as though I'm begging you to come. Cos frankly, I can't hear you over all the fucks I don't give.

*I have nothing against spontaneity. In fact, I love it. You know, never making plans, just going with what the weather and mood permits. But please, sometimes you gotta know when to get a grip and make a decision.
