Have not posted on AIBU to avoid being flamed really just after perspective the issue mirrors a similar thread on AIBU
Here goes ...moved to a new are DC started in yr3 in a small primary with a tiny catchment which meant most of the parents knew each other not only from starting school from reception but also because they live or lived at some point in close proximity to each other
All seemed ok at first but since last summer something changed not sure if the novelty of us being new wore off or if myself or DD accidentally offended anyone. But there was definitely a change.
Fair enough but one of the more dominant mums who was initially very nice and welcoming has been very off with me any time i see her in a group she makes a big point of implying she is going or has been. out with these other mums and their kids knowing very well me and my daughter have not been invited. At no point does she (or the other mums) say oh would you and your DD like to come.
She has done the same thing on many occasion's now. I do think its deliberate. The other mums who must also be part of this group that we are not part of never ever mention anything and no one other than her looks very comfortable when she starts with this.
Ridiculous but feel sad about it we are new to this area and its being made very clear neither myself nor my daughter will be part of the social gatherings. I have held a party to which their kids where invited and came and hosted play dates with their kids etc none of which were returned chat at the school gates happily.
Appreciate people have existing friendships groups but feel annoyed by this particular woman's insensitivity and let down a bit by some of the nice mums who are obviously attending this stuff and never think to extend an invite to myself and my DD.
Pls be kind. Stuff happens. It will be fine. I am not over dramatising it. Just finding it odd and weirdly upsetting.
Any thoughts
