Hello, sorry but this really is very trivial compared to other peoples threads but I really don't have the energy to chance AIBU.
Basically best friend did not invite my ds to her ds party. Her ds is really not a sociable little boy, and I and my ds have always made an extra effort to extend invites to him to all my dc parties and round for meals etc... If it had been a small party then it would not have been such an issue but it was a huge one whole class, club friends invited and so on. Saw her yesterday and she immediately told me that her ds didn't want to invite my ds as he didn't want him to fell left out, they are not at the same school, and was doing him a favour not inviting him. This is I feel a pathetic excuse, ds would be heartbroken if he knew and I really don't want him to find out. I told him it was just a family party. (they are 8)
To make matters worse the week before was my ds party to which her ds was invited and she asked if she could bring his older sister. My ds made a particular effort to include them both.
Anyway I know it is trivial but I cannot seem to get past it, this is a friend who I saw every week, spoke to several times a week and really did rely on. I am also pregnant and have very little family support (but a wonderful dh) I was going to tell her yesterday before she told me about her ds massive play-centre party. She even showed me a picture of the cake.
Please can I have your opinions my dh thinks she was being mean but I need some other perspectives, am very hormonal. Even writing it down sounds stupid but I just feel like breaking the friendship. I guess I really don't want ds to know and for it to hurt him but maybe in reality it has been a snub to me too!
