gosh alot of threads of this ilk this week, clearly alot of us are NOT feeling the love!!!
so we have a friend, lovely girl and her DC were friends with mine. anyway she moved away. I kind of expected it would fade a bit, but she did pop by at times. I did get a bit annoyed initially as she would stay you should come and visit. I'd say OK, when? and she would not answer. but hey ho, we are all busy
But one thing I have noticed is some distinct frostyness from her family and some of her circle. I cant put my finger on it. but normally if you meet a friends family and mates there is some friendlyness, not here, even DP commented on it, and DS actually sad he did not like her partner (he is 3!). I kind of think its cos we are of a different social class and background to her family, and maybe they dont trust us as we are different to them, but its a tad icy
I am fond of her, so I have been making efforts to keep friendship going, so always leaping to see her when is in the area. But have been feeling a bit like its on her terms, but anyway
then the weekend just gone I happended to see her and her relative in the park as she was back in the area. It was very awkward, she clearly did NOT want us there. I cant describe but I def got the impression she was very awkward seeing us, and almost got rid of me "OK, we are walking this way now, bye" even though it was my way back anyway
I left it feeling, well sad really. Noone wants to be brushed off like that , so me and DS sadly walked home, and I went extra slow so we did not bump into them again. awkward
so , I did the very mature thing of deleting her off facebook (I know) but every time I log on (too often as its on my phone) I saw her stuff, and it made me feel, well a bit shitty really.
I just feel like, friends should not make you feel shit. maybe I overeacted but i feel like ts time to draw a line under this,but maybe did I overeact?
anyway, minor shit I know but given the high volume on this topic I wanted to ask
