Hola, long time lurker here, mainly on the pregnancy boards (am currently 35 weeks with DC3 and not in the UK)
Anyway I need opinions, i'm not sure if my hormones are distorting my views but I am so pissed off with a friend that i'm ready to just cut her off completly.
As I said I am not in the UK, I am in Toronto for my husbands job and have been for the past 4 years, my friend is also an ex pat having been here for 14 years, we only met earlier this year and got along great, we have similar aged children and are from the same place in the UK. It all started when she told me that her and another friend had been to the hospital to see a specialist about her heart murmur (first I had heard) and that she had to go back in two weeks, I offered to help in any way I could, picking the kids up from school or whatever......so never heard anything else about said heart murmur, cut to September and she is ill with the flu, husband is off work looking after her so my help isn't needed, fair enough. So last Saturday night we had them over for some fireworks and my crap attempt at treacle toffee........we settle down for a chat after, the kids are off playing and I was saying how sad it is that i'm mega excited about my new front loading washer/dryer being delivered next week........she said ohhhh I would love that too but I have spent all my money..........remmeber when I said I was ill, I wasn't I had a boob job, OK, fine but was there any need to lie to me, sure she didn't have to tell me but to lie, arggggggg.
Another thing that came out right after the boob job shocker was that we had all arranged to go to this Chritmas village thing, I am relativly new here and had never heard of it, anyway it's not been mentioned for a few weeks, turns out she has booked to go with another friend and she told me this like we had never talked about it, now the event is booked up and I have to tell my boys we can't go, but I will make my own fucking Christmas village if I have to.
FYI, she also got her new tits out for me and my husband, i'm no prude but I just wanted to slap her. AIBU for being really pissed off........also she hasn't called and we usually speak every few days.
