It's just not men. My in-laws were late all the time. I would have a birthday party for my son when he was little, invite my side and his. Mine were always there on time or a little early and his side could be over an hour late. After a couple years of this...yeah...patient as he** wasn't I?...lol I decided if they were not there at the scheduled time...then I would start without them. It didn't help, but I was no longer frustrated and upset about it. They came when they came. I didn't hold meals or anything after that.

We also tried telling them an earlier time..didn't seem to help much. Angie, just go on without him if you can. Sure does save the frustration. It's just not that important to some people..., but I'm like you...I am always on time or a few minutes early and if the guys aren't ready...they get left behind.
