A group of mums have arranged a meeting up this afternoon. I'm not part of the group but I know everyone in it. It's a bit cliquey. We were all together at a school event where they were arranging today, it had been planned in advance and they were firming up plans in front of me but not including me. I was the only mum not invited. I just sat there looking serene while they planned x, y and z feeling a bit left out. I've always been on the periphery of this group.
Anyway the school event was ending and as one of the group members was leaving she invited me to today's do, the other group members weren't around when she did this.
I agreed to go but now I'm feeling weird about it.
I have been to many events where this group are and they kind of say 'hi' then close ranks again[[.
Since moving to the area I had hoped that they would be my friends but it hasn't happened.
Today could have been my 'way in' but I don't want to turn up and them 'close ranks' as usual.
I know that this is petty but I also have anxiety and can't bear to be left feeling awkward on the edge of the group.
