Broken plans

[jenholifield]

My really good friend from back home makes me wonder how good of a friend she really is. A few weeks ago I check to see if there was a home game on my birthday and I found out there was and I called my friend and she said sure that sounds like fun. She said to tell her how much the tickets were and we would go. Maybe get a few other girls

im sorry to hear that. i can understand that its her boyfriend, but she made plans with you first. maybe it would have been different if she called you up and said hey heres the situation. that fact that she didnt bugs me. i hope you have a great brithday anyways! *hugs*

Thanks,

This boyfriend seems really good for her, she is a single mom and he loves both her and her son. But anytime she has a boyfriend she blows off her friends and we have been friends for a long time and I don't want to just stop being friends with her. She was my maid of honor and without knowing her I wouldn't have met Stephan.

your welcome.

im glad she's found someone that's soo good for her. i wonder if she realizes that she tends to blow her friends off when she has a boyfriend? you could always talk to her. you know the your a wonderful person and i hope you have a good time blah blah that kind of hurt though. i dont know her so i dont really know how that would work.

I don't think she does, she has always been flighty. So I don't know if she plays it up and uses that to get away with things. Or if she really has no clue that she is doing it. I always try to look at the good side, so I hope it's the second of the two.

Anytime I have said something to her she is like "Oh I feel so bad I'm the worst best friend ever" and all I really want to say is "Yes you are" but I don't and tell her it's ok. Hoping that it won't happen again. That maybe she really did learn a lesson.

What made me the most upset was the oh you can tag along option. Who the hell wants to be a third wheel.

I'm sorry Jennie! That's one of those times when you know people just don't understand!

I hate it when friendships evolve to that point.

For a long time we were in two different places, I was a newlywed and she was looking for a boyfriend. So our priorties were way different. Then I was having Caileigh and she was breaking up with her finace'. Now we are almost in the same place. She is more than likely going to marry this guy and she has a 2 year old(from a horriable relationship). Maybe I should just keep things on the back burner until she either understands or gets to the same point as I do. Because at one point she was the absolute best friend I had and I don't want to feel like I'm giving up.

aw, i'm sorry! that sucks! :( i remember what it's like to easily get sucked into putting a boyfriend before friends and i have regretted it! hopefully, she'll regret it eventually too. i hope you get to go though! that sounds like a fun thing to do for your birthday! :)

I just want her to realize it on her own. I don't want to be the bad guy and make her mad by telling her what she has been doing. If she isn't ready to hear it then someone is going to be on the bad side of the conversation. Seems like that would be me. Is it wrong of me to not want to be the one to tell her, even though I know it needs to be done.
