A group of us from university have kept in touch for the 30+ years since we left. Most of us live fairly close together and we meet for lunch a couple of times a year and stay up to date with each other in a facebook group.
The OH of one has just been sent to prison for a crime she knew nothing about. She and her children are devastated and she's struggling to cope. Most of us are trying to be supportive but a couple are privately bitching about her and trying to drop her from our "group". We are due to have a lunch soon and these two don't want her to come.
I don't think she'd feel up to coming but I think she should be invited and that we should all be supporting her as she's supported us through difficult times in the past.
I'm feeling more inclined to drop the two bitches. AIBU?
