The statement includes a description of the other person's behavior (not informing the speaker about not coming), the consequences of this behavior (the speaker had to go ahead without them), and the speaker's interpretation of the behavior (feeling that the other person wasn't interested in providing input). However, it lacks a direct description of the speaker's feelings, such as feeling disappointed, frustrated, or upset.
