Two things are certain in this world, death and taxes. I myself do NOT "flake" or play games. I would not dwell on the fact that yes, people do flake and some actually have a legitimate reason to not show up. Shit happens. They are probably much more anxious to see you than you to see them. After all they made the choice to see YOU not vice versa. If you take anything that happens in this "hobby" personally that is when drama and mental anguish will distract and torment one.
