To feel sad when a friend cancels plans by just ignoring you?

Was looking forward to meeting with a friend last night, with exact plans tbc. However all day, messages left on ‘read’ and not responded to. Admittedly she was at work and stressed due to current work events, but to ignore my (sporadic) messages for 8+ hours and to still have not replied now is a little bit… cold? I don’t know. Is it too much to send a little “crap day, don’t fancy it now, see you soon” message?

Unreasonable to be upset. Be angry instead. It’s incredibly rude. A person who is flaky with plans and with responding to messages just wouldn’t be compatible with me in terms of friendship because it drives me up the wall.

She could be dead in a ditch.
OP needs to check she’s OK, before judging her.

Sure, dead people read messages.
