Wednesday evening i was sitting and i was doing my project(which i have a deadline for it),the weather was hot that day and fan system of the whole building was down and off.
I really needed to take a shower cause to relieve,but i prefered to sit and do my computer project(Cause on its previous day,was not able to do it).
I was busy with my project,that suddenly i heared the ring of the phone,it was our close neighbour friend in the apartment,which is somehow mine and my mother's friend.
She has recently bought a computer for her only nice little daughter,she asked me on phone,that her daughter doesn't like to learn working with internet from her brother,and prefers to learn that from me,(she and her little daughter are like aunt and cousin for me,as they are our close friends in this apartment).
she said it wont take more than half an hour,and she also mentioned that on thurseday,her doughter is out,that meant she was asking from me to come over and teach her on that present day(wednesday).
I knew that it would be much more than half an hour for me,cause i needed to at least take a shower and stop doing my project.
so i told her that "sorry,but now i cant cause right now i'm busy with project,and as its moving on,so i cant stop,so if couldnt come today,then i will come on friday(as mentioned about about her daughter is not home on its day after(i.e:thurseday)."
OK ,she said thanks and i thought that,when she has told that she doesnt like to learn it from his brother and wants to learn from me,she can wait until the friday in this case.
Well last night(thursday),when my mom returned from the daily walk with this close neighbour mom,she told me that "She said,her daughter learnt it from his brother.
I was just wondering that when somebody ask someone do they really expect to have a ready quick service?
What would you tell them if you see them after this story?(cause we meet eachother almost everyday)..
If you were me what would you do in this case?

If compelled to make any kind of response at all when you meet again, I would make it brief....and without 'over explaining' or adding more to the story and reasoning that is necessary. Everythng you add is one more thing the othe person will find to pick about further.
You were busy with a project that has a due date on it and that responsibility by it's very nature had to take priority. That's it. Don't allow yourself to go much beyond just keeping it simple. If they question it again, repeat the above with may a slight change of wording, but just as brief. Don't keep adding and over explaining.

Sorry sweetie i know that this is going to sound really harsh but if i were you i would focus more of my time learning how to spell and write sentences that actually make sense rather than trying to teach someone else something... If you cant write a basic sentence how can you teach someone else anything useful? Since young people started using computers, mobile phones and other types of lazy devices they haven't focused on proper English and grammar, even with spell check they still can not spell correctly... No offense but it has made young people dumb...

You don't have to explain and neither do you have to worry too much over this incident. Reason: You have told them the truth and you know yourself that you were sincere.
As good neighbours, you do not let one incident affect your relationships.
You seem to be very concerned about your friends' opinion of you and your behaviour towards them. As long as you are sincere to them, you don't have to lose sleep over your actions.
Once you stop worrying, your life will be happier and healthier.

Your call/handle tag could be adequate to nicely known it. Stick a coloured dot on it. I promise you, you`ll comprehend it. i think of the bigger hardship may be, what to do while the airline looses your luggage. they have specific concepts to persist with in the previous they could locate it. I`ve had my luggage dropped at my inn some hours after arrival. appears like my luggage have been taken for an prolonged experience than me.
