[quote=Anonymous]How on earth are people using social anxiety as an excuse? I have pretty severe social anxiety. Flaking at the last minute is much worse for my social anxiety than going. If I were to flake, I'd assume that the host is upset with me and might not ever again want to invite me to anything. I'd also be beating myself up for being a jerk and costing sometime money or ruining their evening. Actually attending an event that I've RSVP-ed to is the thing that will chew on my mindspace the least. Likewise, if I'm hosting and a lot of people flake last minute for lame reasons, I'll likely go into a social anxiety tailspin and spend the next few days examining the friendship and wondering whether you even like me as a person. I would guess that a lot of the people using social anxiety as a reason to be flaky don't even have it. They're just self absorbed. [/quote]
