I know a couple of women who are always going on about how busy they are and are always too 'busy' to meet up with others often, and as a result they are super popular and given a hero's welcome when they do actually turn up to things.
I regularly meet up with a group of friends. One friend always says how busy she is, and often cancels at the last minute or can't come as she is seeing other friends/having her nails done/fancies staying home and catching up on the soaps. Everyone is always saying bless her, she's so busy, and they practically wet themselves with excitement when she does turn up.
The other woman that I know just flits around from friend to friend, disappears off the radar for weeks on end, whilst saying how busy she is, and everyone is clamouring to see her/speak to her.
On occasions when I've been a bit busy or felt a bit down and not contacted anyone for a while I've just literally been left. If I don't contact anyone then they don't contact me. I'd have no friends or no social life if I didn't make the effort.
I think I need to be more 'busy'

AIBU?
To think that people who always claim to be busy and spread themselves thinly are the most popular?
