He has a very demanding job, and I can see him usually once or twice a week. Plans are almost always tentative, because he may get called into work. 

However, it has become a serious pattern for him to either not show up, forget, or cancel on me last minute to do other things (see his friends). Each time this happens, it means I will not see him for two weeks. 

I understand that he has little free time, and I don't mind if he needs to cancel. But is asking for him to start with "I know we had plans, but..." or "I'm sorry, I have to cancel our plans because.." too much to ask? He thinks I am the one overreacting, but all I want is to feel like he remembered that we had plans.
