Which promises have you broken?

Roman
I have never made any promise to anyone and fail not to fulfill the promise. I understand what it means to make promise and what it means to break a promise to someone which is the reason why before I make a promise to anyone, I must make sure it is something I will do anything humanly possible to get it done.
 
I really don't like making promises cause when I do, I always feel guilty when I have not fulfilled it or when there is a delay in fulfilling it. Though there are times I have broken certain promises.
I also don't like to do this because if I make a promise, I understand that I will do everything that depends on it to fulfill it and sometimes even put someone's interests above my own
 
I've tried my best to keep the important promises in my life, but I'm certainly not perfect. One that really weighs on me is breaking a promise to my best friend years ago. I promised to make it to their wedding no matter what, but ended up having to miss it due to a family emergency. I've also broken small promises like being late to meet someone. While unintentional, broken promises can damage trust and hurt people close to me, which I deeply regret.
 
I believe in the old fashioned concept of honor. I keep my word, don't give it easily but when I do my word is my bond. No breaking of promises here.
This is the right way to go about it, unless you are sure you would be able to keep that promise, do not make any promises. This is why I choose to not give a reply most of the times.

My word is my bond. That's why I don't like making promises. I try to make my words have value. That's why anytime I open my mouth to say or make a promise, I plan and commit myself to fulfil it.
Not saying I don't have a few failed promises. I do. But it is mostly to my nieces and nephews. I told them I would buy them a bike if they did well at school. They did well but I have not bought them the bike. But it is in my mind and I would fulfil it soon.
