2. Being Unreliable
If people can’t depend on you to follow through with commitments, show up on time, or keep your word, their respect for you will quickly diminish. Reliability is one of the most valued qualities in any relationship. Being known as someone who is dependable and trustworthy builds a solid foundation of respect. If you struggle with reliability, consider improving your time management skills and learning to say no when you can’t realistically commit. A person who follows through on their promises is far more respected than one who constantly overcommits and underdelivers.
