Friendship or Promise

which do u think is more imporant friendship or promise?
i made a promise to a friend that i would work on new years but then my friends want me to hang out we got into a fight and now i dont know what to do??

 

it's a pretty hard decision. i guess i would say promise. if they are good friends, they should understand.
sorry if i offended you!

 

^ agreed with they were real friends they would think it is good that you can keep a promise

 

Promise is more important because it reflects on your sense of duty and responsibility.

 

haha...u made a promise to a FRIEND and ur other friends dont like it cu they wanna hang with u

either way ur gonna be in a fight...if u keep ur promise ur other friends will be pissed....
if u hang out the friends u were supposed to work for is gonna be pissed

i say...keep ur promise...

 

^^Keep the promise cause you'll never know when you'll need a favor yourself.-^_^

 

You made a promise to your friend that you will work on new years, but you didn't promise the B-friend to hang out.

So since you first made a promise to A-friend, I guess that you'll have to stick on your word. -cool2

And, I dunno but what is more important, to hang out or work....
You can always hang out, I dont think that's a big problem.
To actually have a fight over it, I think that your friends aren't mature enough.<_<

 

why would you break a promise just for hanging out?
i mean, i guess hanging out with your friends is important, but it's not like if you don't hang out with them, then something horrible will happen
you can hang out anytime .. i'm sure they wouldn't want you to break a promise to hang out with them to go work ...
and if this breaks your "friendship" then it wasn't really a good friendship now, huh?
sorry if that was too harsh .. i've been having trouble with lots of drama lately ...but it is really what i think

 

should compromise things
work AND hang out after work or something =)

 

New Year??? This is thread is considered spam until proven innocent. -noclue

I guess I'll answer the OP anyways... *sighs*

The question itself is easy to answer. You're asking if friendship or promises are are more important. Well you made a PROMISE to someone you have a FRIENDSHIP with.... :\

 

i was thinking the same thing...but then i was like...hmmm maybe he talkin bout chin new year?

 

I thought about that. It's on Feb. 7. So I kinda doubt he/she would become "overbooked" this early.

 

Promises are meant to be kept. If the friends are understandable, then the fight is not necessary. Don't ppl live with this philosophy of life? Keep to your words/promises.

 

lol does everyone think that if someone breaks a promise that that persons bad and will go to hell....

personally it depends which is more important to you. Logically thinking; does breaking a promises consequences outweigh that of breaking a friendship? Does breaking that promise compromise another friendship and which one is worth more to you, etc? Thats up to you to decide

isnt there a way to work round both situations without anything being broken

 

follow through on the promise. then in future be very careful when you make promises.

 

I say promise. Got to follow through with what you started off. Well thats what i would do if I was in your shoes. I am sure in due time your friends will come to an understanding and you will be able to get balance between your friends and the promise.
