Yesterday I had arranged to meet up with a friend in the city in which she lives (half an hour from where I live), to go Xmas shopping together and go to lunch. My friend has form for being a bit flakey and a little self absorbed at times. However I've always given her the benefit of the doubt. She has a "bestie", whom I'll call Jen, and has in the past dropped plans with me at short notice in order to see Jen instead, or has brought Jen along to planned meet ups with me and then they've chatted away about stuff I'm not involved in and I've felt thoroughly left out.
Anyway, yesterday we arranged to meet at 11am. I turned up, and my friend turned up 15 minutes late, with Jen in tow, having not told me she was bringing her. My friend then said "Jen wants to go and look in X shop and Y shop, it'll be easier if just the two of us go, so we'll meet you back here in, say, an hour. You can go in John Lewis for a coffee or something".
I was quite gobsmacked and said to my friend that if that was the case I'd just go home then, as I had come to meet up with her, not to wander around on my own and have coffee in random shops alone. My friend was visibly taken aback, and seemed quite shocked that I hadn't agreed to go along with what she wanted. I then said "See you, then" and walked off, went to my car and drove home.
She hasn't tried to make any further contact with me, and as far as I am concerned she is well and truly dumped as a friend, but she did do a Facebook status last night saying she was "sick of so-called friends being selfish and oversensitive" so I'm guessing she meant me.
WIBU to just go home?
