Tomo night I'm going to an event with a friend. We have planned it since February and the tickets were £100 each so I haven't made any other arrangemts for nights out for Christmas. Tomorrow is it for me we said when we booked it we would go have a couple cocktails and then on to event. I went bought a lovely party dress etc. then about two weeks ago friend starts dropping hints that it's her husbands Christmas dinner on same day. I didn't take the bait just acknowledge dr he comment. Then few dayslatershe says it starts at 2 so he's gonna go early and be home for 6. She has been dropping snips like this for a couple weeks until yesterday she said oh I'm having difficulty getting a babysitter (hers on is a bit of a handful so she always has difficulty getting a sitter. Usually I do it) now she reckons she is gonna drive and pick me up at 8-7:30. Fine drive if u like. But the event starts at 8 and I live at least half an hour away and there is terrible parking there! She's just ruining it before we begin! AIBU to feel she's sucking the fun out of it????

You totally did the right thing. I hope you're having a great night without your 'friend'.

How was your evening? I hope the fall out with your 'friend' didn't put a dampener on it.

Fantastic, you handled that perfectly. Your friend was taking the piss messing you around like that.

Well I hope you went with your sister and had a fab night!

How out of order is she. I would say look it's obvious you are busy tonight and I don't think you will make it, how about I sell the tickets to my sister who wants to go.

Yes well done, she knew since February last year about the concert, sound very flaky. Good on you.
