I am so jumping hissed off!! I've just had a text from my mate who's blown me off a-fucking-gain for the THIRD basket TIME.

Normally I wouldn't be bothered but it was my birthday yesterday and I set aside today (my one and only day off ) so I could spend some time with him, I even took into account that even though I wanted to watch a film he's skint so I said "ok then if you're feeling skint we'll just take a drive somewhere and talk like we used to", to which he agreed. All's well yes?
Now bearing in mind that we arranged this a week in advance. So I gets a call yesterday saying that he's got to work but seeing as he's working the night shift, he should be free for the afternoon. But AGAIN he brings the subject of being skint so I again said don't worry then we'll just go for a drive like I said. So he said ok I'll text you when I finish. I sent him a text to remind him to text me and went to bed.
I've just got a text from the jumping custard that for the third time say's he's skint and suddenly out of nowhere he's mysteriously got to go and pick a TV up from his Girlfriends Aunties. LIKE WHAT THE chuck I MAKE PLANS WITH YOU WELL IN ADVANCE AND SUDDENLY YOU GO AND CANCEL BECAUSE YOUR BIRD WANTS TO USE YOU AS A jumping MULE? I've lost count of the number of times I've cancelled plans WITH FAMILY and gone to do stuff with you, you can't just turn round to your bird ONE jumping TIME to come for a drive just for half an hour just THIRTY basket MINUTES, I MEAN IS THAT JUST TOO MUCH TO jumping ASK?
Now that I think about it family and friends are always telling me to just kick him to the kerb and just move on, he obviously isn't interested in the friendship anymore, and it's just me making all the basket effort, but we have been mates for 10+ years and it just seems a waste and plus it just doesn't seem like me to just blow someone off like that. Round where I live I'm almost famous for my patience. I'm just getting sick and tired of being thrown to the side and only getting picked up and dusted off when people need me for favours, lifts or money. I know I need to toughen up but again that isn't in my public character, in private I'm a seething mess, but in public I'm all smiles.
Ok now I'm asking for advice, should I tell my "mate" where to shove it? Like everyone says I should? Or should i listen to my heart and just keep getting pushed to the side again and again?
Edited by Snail: the swear filter caught most of that, Seiya, and I got the rest. No swearing on here, please
