In 2008, I became friends with another woman, and we started to meet weekly or fortnightly coffee/cake/cuppa etc. This went on for years and was I thought very positive and very reciprocal we always had good fun. Friend got pregnant with a much wanted DC2 - who went on to be very ill for the first year of their life. Regular meet ups naturally petered out but there were no hard feelings on either side. We continued to text and Facebook message etc until that too just petered out as sometimes these things do. We both have busy lives. I still very much considered her a friend. About 18 months ago I realised I hadn't seen her post in a while and thought to check in and see how she was. She had unfriended me. I was shocked and a bit hurt.
I hardly use Facebook to post but I do see unfriending as rather FINAL - I have plenty of friends on there that I haven't seen for one reason and another in a long time - it doesn't mean I'm not their friend but C'est La Vie, i thought.
Flashforward to 2 weeks ago, my phone starts going crazy at 6 AM on a Saturday morning. I got a bit panicked as my god-daughter was due to visit that day and it woke me up because i thought there was an emergency.
It was this friend. Several texts full of kisses and heart emojis telling me how much she misses me - after 4 yrs of no real contact.
Begging to come and see me - can't wait etc. So I arrange with her that she can come over tomorrow.
I don't hear from her again at all in the days that follow and had to text tonight to check she was still coming, and got a reply along the lines of : "oops lol no, i thought this was next week I'm working soz" even though the texts above clearly say 15th March.
Am I being unreasonable or is this just bizarre and bonkers?
AIBU?
To be confused by this?

Had she taken a break EBearHug deactivated and come back we would still be friends as you get all your friends and content back when you reactivate. I know this as some friends have done it, one after receiving some neg attention from winning money on a gameshow. She disappeared and then reappeared some months later without either of us having to add the other.
She has asked for next week and I have said OK 
I think DoreenLehal should have a Hall of Fame MN type place to conserve her witty reposts I am always hopeful and never disappointed when I see she has waded in
