Is it just me or has some ppl misunderstod a promis?

For me its not a promis when someone asks me to call her an i say sure i will but i dont for some reason.. ?

For me a promis is only if i say the magic words like: I promis i will call you later!!

am i wrong here?

if you've said that you would call her, then you've made a promise indirectly (sp?).

well if u say u will do something u take it to mean it will be done. perhaps u should phrase it sure, if i remember/get time. or will try an do summit instead of will do.or yeah i might give ya a bell sometime.
or

in this instance it woulda been appropriate (from the birds perspective) to have sent a text message to that effect. eg just say 'thinkin of u, didnt call tho as its late n didnt wanna wake u.'
this way she cant bitch cos a)u come across cute cos u cared bout not wakin her
b) if she was awake an got the message that night she couolda called u
c) u did make some effort in makin 'contact' an gave a reason for not calling thus she cant go paranoid an think u didnt call on purpose for some dark reason:D

If you need to see the difference, or there lack of, in a direct promise and an indirect promise...think of this guys...

"I love giving head!"

You get her back to your flat and you "get it on"...then...no head...

See?

Thats my understanding. If you fail to keep a promise with a woman, expect the fabric of the space-time continuum to be shreaded by hordes of daemonic hybrid human-dragon monsters who will plague your nightmares with visions of hideous obscenity and brutality for all eternity.

If you say you'll call without *promising* then its a non-contractual personal indication of future activity.

Well basicly still...you f*cked up. Time to make right. Or just explain the situation like you explained here.

But not weeks and weeks after!

Jesus christ the overhyped one...if i say "Sure i'll come to the party", it means...I'll go to the f'ing party. And that's even if i don't like the people. Common sense kid. Use it.

yeah the seal is right

Even if you dont say promise you still agreed to do it, in my opinion if i say i am going to do something or be somewhere then i am regardless of what words used

cant argue with someone who walks away when arguing when they know they are wrong but they say its cause they are more mature than you to argue
