Always late by an hour or more
Is this just an excuse to be a bad friend?
Never text first to hang out or to see how you’re doing

That's not a friend at all. I had to walk away from a guy claiming to be a friend who was always flaking. I told myself "that's just how he is," but then I saw him turn up for someone else without any problems or qualms whatsoever. THAT is a friend.
