John: I'm in your area tonight, get ready and we'll chill

me: bet, you live pretty close, be ready in 15

50-90 mins later

John: leaving now

It's the John syndrome in my circle.

      I’m the John. I do have adhd but if I’m being analytical it’s: I’m really excited to hang out, I really want to hang, and Inwant to reserve your time, but life keeps getting in the way such as… not having car available or me giving the most optimistic time it would take to take bus/finish work/etc.

      It’s not nice, but it doesn’t come from a place of malice or lack of respect. I would only do this with close friends

      Forever-late people will catch on to that game and pretty soon you'll be telling them to meet at 4am for brunch
