background - friend has children the same age as mine and they go to the same school. We've been friends for about a year and share other friends, have been out together and helped each other out etc
she has always been one of the nicest people I know, she is generous and kind and would do anything for anyone
My ds2 has a ridiculous haircut at the moment his fringe is cut straight across about 2 inches above his eyebrows and his hair slopes down to shoulder length at the back
he looks like a coconut
the reason for it is that he nicked my scissors and hacked his fringe nearly half-way across at that stupidly short length, and when I tried to tidy it up he wailed that I wasn't allowed to cut the back short because he wants a ponytail like Daddy
so I did the best I could with it and it looks tidy, even though it's a daft haircut
anyway lovely friend who I thought really liked me apparently said to a mutual friend the other morning at school
"Have you SEEN XX's hair, what on earth have they done to him" and was laughing and taking the piss
I know it's silly but I feel really hurt and also I feel as though I have to tell everyone we know why he has that haircut
I made dh mention it to his teacher this morning (two boys and two adults, so we take one each into school for the 10 minutes of 'early work', I had ds1 this morning)
AIBU to feel that my trust has been shaken? I would never have expected this friend to take the piss behind my back like that. Now I feel rather sad and wary of all the other people I thought liked me
