Do you ever make a decision and then sort of cringe about it?
A while back, a friend of mine and myself were chatting away, and it turned out that my friend’s neighbour was a distant cousin of mine. The neighbour sent me an email to ask about some of my family and said it would be good to meet up one day.
I was bored, so sent her another email saying, alright I’ll take you up on it. She said, oh come over for some wine and I’ll make some sandwiches.
So off I went (having never met her!). When I got to the house, she said, oh my husband’s family is in town visiting us. So I ended up having lunch with a very distant cousin, and her husband’s family. It was a bit awkward but we had a fair amount in common actually, and the conversation flowed and had a nice glass of wine and some sarnies. I sort of enjoyed it, but felt out of place.
Now I’m thinking about it later, I just feel awkward having intruded? Even though they first suggested it.
I accidentally posted this in chat , sorry about that
