Is my cousin being a CF?

Currently visiting a cousin in the states for her graduation. Flown from England (as she was sad her parents live in Asia and nobody could make it). Since being here she has prioritised glamming up & going out with friends. Have paid a bomb to get here, pay for almost all meals/ drinks so far but her schedule is to be up all night / sleep in the day. Lives a spoilt brat lifestyle of spending 3 hours (no exaggeration) glamming up, getting Ubers to bars and drinking cocktails. I’m only here 3 nights (2 done) and can’t wait to get back soon enough. Conversation has been easier with her flatmates than her. Shes always on her phone- I felt awkward and told her not to let me stop her from having her fun/doing whatever she wishes and with that she was out the door at 11 last night after we got in from food/drinks. Very confused and don’t know how to handle it today - it’s 9.30am, still waiting for her to get out of bed which I’m not expecting till at least 1, likely 2pm. Overheard her complaining about me being here to a flatmate. Do I try and talk things through or bide my time till flight back..

Jesus, what a piece of work. If I could get an early flight I’d be off.

Do you want to explore the area on your own or with her flatmate? Can you afford a hotel? Do you want to leave the country? Have you seen much? What do you want to do? Was there a discussion with your cousin how long you stay and what you do together?

What was the expectation? How did you hope to spend your time with her?
