I have been friends with a neighbour for 10 years since we both had babies at the same time. We used to go to playgroups, have coffee and spend days off in the holidays together as well as having the occasional night out and spa day. We have seen less of each other these last few years as our children aren't in the same friendship circles at school and we have both changed jobs and work a lot more hours. I still, however, see her 3 mornings as a week as I take her child to school for her. She stands on my doorstep and we chat and tell each other what is going on.
On the last day of term before the school holidays, which wasn't my day for taking her child, my daughter came home with her daughter's homework book saying that she'd been off sick. I texted my friend to ask how she was. No reply. In the week I went round with the homework and realised that the house was all shut up and they were away on holiday. I couldn't believe that they would go on holiday and not mention it. She is into her holidays and is always very excited and always tell me about it and I love to hear about it.
She came round this morning and I said I can't believe you went away without telling me and she said she thought she had. She knows full well that she didn't though. I just don't get it. The only thing I can think is that they rang in sick on the Friday they broke up and she doesn't want school to find out. AIBU to be upset that she didn't tell me because she obviously doesn't trust me?? I can't think I have given her reason not to trust me. It's maybe a little thing but I can't imagine going away and not telling my friends...
