[quote=Anonymous]There doesn't seem to be a 'Friends' forum so I'm posting here.

I texted a friend 9 days ago and I asked if she would like to meet up for coffee with me sometime, and to let me know when she is available in the next couple weeks. No reply. I texted her again on Sunday. Still no reply. I've known this person for more than 15 years, she lives 10 minutes away, but we're not super close.

I also texted another friend recently and I invited her to meet up for coffee sometime. I saw her in the street a couple days later. She said that she had read my text and she suggested we all meet up together for dinner in town (the friend, her partner, me and DH). 
No date was set. 
I texted her last Friday and I asked if they're this free this coming weekend or the next.
No reply so far.

DH and I are early 50s and early 60s. Friends are late 50s, early 60s, so childcare is not an obstacle.
I get it if they're busy or if their weekends are full, but I'd prefer them to tell us so that we can make alternative plans.[/quote]
