Yeah. I recently got this in reverse from Azazel. Was all ready to set up a pact, confirmed the week before, and on the day, nope. I was quite put out; I hate nasty surprises. I did ask him why and he said there was another I would be better working with who wanted to pact with me first, and I asked who and he said Lucifige Rofocale. Now, I really hate having my decisions taken from me, so I must admit I cold shouldered him for a week, amid impulses that I was ‘being childish’. Yeah, diminish my feelings, why don’t you, that’ll get you sooo much farther, pfft. Try “sorry I should have asked”, asshole. (Yes I called Azazel an asshole, he knows he is, but so am I, you wanna play that game, watch me walking away.) Anyway, I’m actually working with Leviathan now and he/it’s awesome, we see eye to eye all the way. It’s not like I trust Azazel’s ref for Lucifige after what heppened, so, yeahbutno.
Point is, people come into your life for a reason or a season, they don’t stick around forever, so don’t sweat it, pick up the mess they made, time to work with someone else, and stop relying on someone who’s flaking on you. Stop relying on others period. Ask for help, sure, but have a plan B if they flake.
I get the whole “you could do this for yoursefl” thing, ok, that annoys me too, I get it all the time at work, but, he could have SAID something. He could have told you - “no, you’ve got this, do a working like this”. Like Azazel could have said something to me at any time. They didn’t care. So it’s time to move on.
