Ditch “friends” who don’t respond?

[Ann3216]

2 people in my life I’m thinking I let them treat me like crap. I text and they don’t respond till at least a few days or even more than a week later. I wouldn’t take it personally if I didn’t see for a fact they are super quick to respond to groups we have in common do I see the difference. Often my message will be about a meet up or time sensitive issue. I don’t take the piss. I hate the fact I ask them do you want to meet for coffee on such a such date and they don’t respond till evening before or even on the day. I hate it. I have had low standards fir myself in the past with relationships shops due to low self esteem. I’m thinking now I need higher standards and more self respect. Everyone is busy and goes t take more than 5 seconds to respond with yes or sorry I can’t.

Sorry for typos! And no my messages to them do not have typos! That’s not the reason they don’t resound

Even the busiest of people, can spare 30 seconds to respond to a message. It's a choice to ignore/delay responding.
I have a friend who does this. Now I never initiate anything. I still respond to them, but it's almost like waiting to see if they get a better offer than mine. I don't do that anymore and you shouldn't either OP.

I don't think you ditch them but maybe go for the reciprocal approach eg you don't invite them again until they have invited you. Then your friendship will either carry on, find a new 'level' of how often you see each other or fizzle.

This just stop trying and it will either work or not. It’s sounding one sided

Currently waiting for a “friend” to bother to reply to my discussion of her child’s birthday and a date to meet up. It’s always the same and I just can’t be bothered anymore.
