Do you always keep your word?

Question

When you say that you'll do something, do you always follow through?

I've seen an example here where only a third did.

Answer 1

Once I make a decision to do something, I never go back on it. (unless circumstances beyond my control prevent me from doing it - Eg - being hit by a bus - but even then, I'd still try to keep my promise)

Answer 2

I have a rule (especially where my Step-son is concerned : If I might not be able to do something, I say "maybe" you / we can. If I have said "Yes" to something already, barring death or disablement, I keep my word. Your word is all you have! My family and friends all know by now that if I say "maybe" I will REALLY try, but if I say "I WILL", I DO! I have NEVER let my son or family down yet! (Promise)

Answer 3

Yes

Answer 4

Good Question! I only keep my word, to ones that I value, themselves. I'm guilty of not standing up? But it's also a signal that I ain't wantin' them around my Life, at all. it may be wrong. But it chases the "Leaches' away.

Answer 5

I always do unless something major happens. Especially when it comes to my kids!

Answer 6

I do, but then again I do far too much for people, I do not know when to say NO.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Answer 10
