[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is a total blow off, right?

Friends are trying to get together and one friend basically said she is never available. Can’t offer one date for the rest of 2025. She has 3 kids as do I. We all have 2-3 kids.[/quote]

One, there are not that many weeks left in 2025. Two, you are cornering her. [/quote]
Oh come on, this woman is being “cornered” because someone asked her availability in a group chat to get together before the end of the year?

OP just get together without her then. She can initiate something, or chime in next round, in 2026. Not a big deal.[/quote]

Yes, when you demand someone offer a date, that is cornering them. [/quote]

DP, but: no it is not. It's an attempt to be inclusive. If others keep offering dates and she keeps saying she can't make it, then it makes sense to figure out what she CAN make and plan around that. If she doesn't want that, she can just say "please don't plan around us, if we can't make it because of our packed schedule, so be it."[/quote]
