This is mostly regarding 1x1 requests. 

Lately I've been noticing a pattern that is rather annoying. I see a request for a 1x1, send a PM to discuss the plot and work out all the details, everything is working out well, and then it comes time for the first post. Normally, if I came up with most of the ideas for the plot I will offer to do the first post. That gets finished, and I wait. And wait. And wait some more. Meanwhile days have passed with my post sitting untouched and filling up space in my inbox, and my supposed partner never to be seen from again. It's to the point now that I don't even want to put any effort into posting because I feel like it's a complete waste of time! It's rather depressing, especially when I'm responding to someone else's request. 

Am I the only one that's been dealing with this?
