My oldest friend has always been extremely eccentric, but lately it's become abundantly clear that he doesn't give a flying [intercourse] about anyone outside his circle of friends, family, and people he can relate to.
I mean, very few people do, but he doesn't even bother to hide it

Hopefully we still have lunch this week, yes?
Maybe next week?
Alternatively you can come to the Greens drinks night Friday? (I think non-members are welcome? It's at a pub)

You lied to me. 
You lied to me.
I'm inviting you to drinks on Friday. And we can get dinner beforehoof if you really want that.
I actually cancelled a bunch of plans with people this week because I have neither the energy nor funds to attend them.
Also it's been almost 40C today and it's still over 30C and I have a headache and can't sleep and I'm super cranky.

I know, I can't sleep either, or you think I'm awake because #YOLO? 
Where would the drinks be? How much would it be?

Rave and rant; I done worked myself into a pickle.
Rave: Hit it off in a conversation with a woman and have a date tomorrow night! She seems great!
Rant: Hit it off in another conversation with another woman. She's also great, and clearly interested, but I was messaging two at once, figuring that one or both would suddenly stop responding mid-conversation without any explanation. After all, every last woman I was having conversations with before, about ten or so, did that to me, so I figured it was a safe assumption to make. Well, #2 stopped messaging for a few days, so I figured that happened again and set up a date with #1. Now #2 just got back to me and is still clearly interested. Unless my date falls through, I'm probably going to have to explain why I can't date her right now, making me look like a jerk. Maybe I am.
Like a dog chasing a car, I never expected to actually catch them, and had no plan if I did. It would be hilarious if it happened to someone else, and even now, I can't help but chuckle about what I've gotten myself into...

Nah, definitely not a jerk, I had a friend go through the same scenario. You don't know you're committed until you're actually committed and the vast majority of stuff flames out.
Also congrats!

That's reserved for my own sitcom, Life of Yavor, and it's been running for 17 years.

It's a first date dude, don't put the cart ahead of the horse. Unless the dates are at the exact. same. time. and you're forced into some RomCom scenario where you running back and forth trying to juggle two dates that are across the street from each other or something, you have nothing to worry about. Go on your dates. Nobody's expecting you to be exclusive until you have "the talk" with one (or god-forbid both 
) of them about exclusivity. It's a first date, for all you know one or both of them could be ghosting you by next week. If you're a month in and STILL juggling them, we may have a problem, but for now relax and enjoy the attention. Kudos!

A month? Try six. Or... never. If you have two girls who want your attention why hoard it arbitrarily for one of them? That'd be mean.

If one or both of them ask for exclusivity and you promise it to them.

I can't even. Just... why would you even.
