Girls holiday this weekend but friend blanking me?

Hi,

I have a holiday booked for this weekend. It’s sort of a tradition for my friend and me to go on holiday at the beginning of January but this is the first time since covid.

I have arranged it all, flights, hotels, itinerary etc. My friend has suddenly stopped responding to my messages and calls. She last replied on Sunday saying how excited she was. Then she completely blanked me. I can see she has been online, she just hasn’t read my messages or picked up the phone.

I’ve asked her about what time train she wants to get to the airport; taxi or bus transfer to the hotel and for her passport details to check in etc. Nothing in response.

I am really confused. She is not working atm so not busy with work stuff. I don’t know exactly what I am hoping to get from posting here but could there be a legitimate reason for her ignoring me?

I’m starting to get worried she wants to drop out and isn’t telling me for some reason - perhaps because she knows it’s all paid for and not refundable at this point. I have no idea :(

I’m going to heed peoples advice and put it all to the back of my mind. Lots of stuff I should really be getting on with rather than wasting time stressing about this kind of stuff.

Thank you everyone.

I have a friend who does this sometimes and it’s always because her mental health has taken a nosedive. It’s very difficult when we’ve got a commitment coming up like this. Sometimes the only way to get her to respond is to say “Right, I’m worried about you, I’m getting in the car and will be on your doorstep in two hours to make sure you’re ok”.

I wonder if she has just realised her passport has expired? And doesn't know how to tell you or is having a mad rush trying to sort an emergency one out?

@CakeMake have you heard from her yet ?
