I am at a loss to know what to do with a new mum who seems to delight in belittling me and excluding me from social gatherings despite the fact we share a similar social circle.
I am trying not to be paranoid at this but dd has a birthday party coming up and while others have indicated they are coming, this particular mum has not.
The other problem is she lies to me about not receiving text messages and when she had a good moan about someone last term and I tried to help her she actually turned against me instead.
I'm a bit bewildered to be honest, she never texts or phones when she says she will, never invites dd around despite inviting others around and yet always likes to say our dds are best friends (they actually are).
I have had her dd around many times, and her family, husband etc but there has been no invites from her despite promises.
As we share a similar social circle I don't want to alienate her as she is quite popular but I am new too and realise she is toxic to my self esteem.
Coping strategies please!
