Context: I was supposed to meet a good friend for dinner at a local pub recently. I waited 2 hours and then called him. He said he couldn't be bothered going out and had forgotten to call me. I am not too happy with him right now.
Speaker 1: I waited for a good friend of mine at a local pub recently - 2 hours I waited. Eventually I got hold of him and he said he couldn't be bothered going out and had forgotten to call. Not too impressed, frankly.
Speaker 2: What did you do after waiting for 2 hours?
Speaker 1: I bought a pint of beer and a curry and joined another single woman at a table. We had a fine time, but I sure am wondering about my friendship!
Speaker 2: Silver linings do happen, maybe is was a good thing your friend forgot about you.
Speaker 1: Could be. I just feel he was being rather inconsiderate, which is not something I'd expect of him.
Speaker 2: Maybe not a true friend after all.
Speaker 1: Kind of what I was thinking. I won't be arranging to meet him again for a while, that's for sure!
