Call it the Plans or Placeholders Rule.
People who want to see you don’t float. They anchor.
They name a day. A time. They follow through.
The ones who give you “sometime soon” aren’t planning to fit you in.

It sounds soft. It sounds hopeful. But it’s a placeholder - not a plan.

It’s not about your worth. It’s about their effort.
That’s the pattern we break inside The 90-Day Filter Playbook - 25% off (low-drama, high-clarity).
Try this instead:
Let silence follow the last “let’s hang soon”
Watch who circles back without a prompt
Stop holding space for maybe when it costs your peace
