NC as potentially outing.
The long and short of it is, I was supposed to visit my friend’s newly renovated house with a two other friends between Christmas and New Year, and completely forgot about it.
For context, I’m pregnant with my first child, due in March, and baby’s father and my partner of 5 years left me out of the blue just over a month ago so admittedly my head is absolutely up my arse.
Anyway, I was mortified and called to apologise but could tell she was annoyed. She then sent me a text the next day ‘after she’d had time to calm down’ and said she was really disappointed in me as a friend as I knew how much work she’d put into the house, and she felt that I’d been thoughtless and selfish. I probably was thoughtless but quite honestly I don’t know which way is up at the moment! I haven’t replied.
To be clear, we weren’t going for dinner so it’s not like I made her waste food or anything like that. It was literally just a visit to get a tour of the house. I don’t have form for being scatty or unreliable at all - I’m usually very together. I’m just going through a hard time right now and think she could’ve given me a little bit of grace given the circumstances.
