When someone says they are going to do something and they don’t, does it reflect their lack of integrity or are they simply lacking in common courtesy?

Or maybe it’s something else?

*shrugs*

I have always felt it important to treat others as I would want to be treated. If I tell someone I’m going to do something, I do it. If a complication occurs or for some other unforeseen reason I am unable to do what I said, I always let them know as soon as possible what happened – and preface it with a heartfelt apology.

It’s probably why I can count my true friends on one hand. I simply have no interest in people who can’t seem to understand the importance of walking their talk.

And I especially have no interest in those who talk a good line and never follow through.
