So I'm a little annoyed tell me what you think....am I being unreasonable?
This year me and a friend have our big 40's different days.
Her wider group of friends put together a messenger page of what we can do to celebrate her birthday. Fab.
We all suggested a night away etc hot tub food, friends etc no problem.
Then people started talking two nights away, renting a cottage, barn, lodge etc one night out on the town and the second night in hot tub etc.,.a bit out of what I can realistically do.
So my friend found out about messenger group...do of course was invited in so she could give us an idea what she'd like to do. Cool
So far it's a two night thing and if we each chip in...looking at around 120pound each for accommodation. Then the idea is we'd all chip in to pay hers. Then there's the night out, taxis's, food and alcohol for the night in.
I'm working 6 days at the minute to pay off debt that I was left with after a relationship breakdown. I'm tired. Saving for my sons 16th and then it's my 40th that I'd like to save to take me and my two out for a meal.
Anyway I added into the messenger group I could do one night away (not sure where I'd get the money to even do that to be honest)...,well that went down like a lead balloon.
Spoke to birthday friend next day who is not happy and said if I start saving now I'd have enough. She didn't understand at all. It's my 40th this year too and since she seems more bothered that if I don't go..the price goes up for others I.e letting the side down....I'm thinking I'd rather save to do something even better for sons 16th and my own birthday.
Anyway she's in a mood with me and looks like I'm out of the messenger group
Feel like telling her where to go...aibu?
