I hate it when friends flake out on you all the time. Every now and then isn't a big deal, things happen, I get it, but I feel frustrated when I'm in a situation like that and trying to be really flexible with times and things just keep popping up.
It is a bit funny that your friend made plans with you, including a special trip home, knowing that it was out of your way, and canceled. But I guess it can happen like that when you throw in family, i.e. spending time with her dad at the movie. I think it depends on the person to really know if that "means" anything.
"How do women think" haha, I often wonder how men think. Recently I've tried to remind myself not to let it bother me if friends act that way (canceling/being flighty) because I can just always make plans with someone else. I think this time of year, with the holidays approaching and things like that, makes it harder in those situations. I say "holidays" because we've got Thanksgiving in the middle of Nov. in a couple of weeks, but I suppose you don't have to worry about that in the UK.
