what would you do to non committing friends?

Your friend whom you've known for 3 months is persistent to meet. he is straight forward nice person. helped you move into another apartment. he calls you and you call him on an ocassional basis does not anymore. When you tell him to keep in touch like, in a friendly way so he knows fair is fair. he doesn't make the effort anymore even when for him helping you move and give him a gift he doesn't meet up. he says he will meet up if you come to his area and we both make a date for it. but it never happenes ( he said something that offended me) . what would you do?

Friend # 2. You have been friends for months online, there is a connection but he has raging horomones.although your personalities are similar, you'd like to keep him as a friend. he ws going to school at the time you got to know eachother, but now he has graduated and not working. You found something you both have in common, (working out) but with a few attempts saying we would meet up, he doesn't call to say he is not meeting me. later on making excuses. what would you do?

thanks in advance

    Friends, can be so nice to have and the source of so much pain! I always tell my kids there are two kinds of friends. (I relate it to types of flowers.) The first is an annual. This type of flower is good for a season. At the time it provides beauty and joy. But in the end it was for a short season, nothing will return. And then there are perennials. These type of flowers come back every time. They are always there and dependable. You have to give to them, but they always have something to give back. It sounds like friend 1 & 2 were annuals. Nice for a season, but time to move on. Keep looking for your perennial, they are far and few in between, but well worth the wait!
