Im working temporarily as a student music teacher, it's quite casual but involves me working a few days a work for a couple of hours or so.
My friend has recently gone through a break-up and wants us to spend lots of time together (totally fair enough) despite the fact we live about a few hours away from each other.
We are seeing each other in a couple of weekends time. She also has a train ticket to a city we both know well to use up and has just assumed I'll be going there with her straight after. She had found £50 tickets to an event in the city (which in fairness looks really good) and messaged me with the details. The dates are right after the weekend we're seeing other (so we'd see each other anyway if that makes sense) plus during my tutoring hours.
I made some noises about how good it looked but haven't committed yet. She has now sent a message saying she will get our mutual friend to book tickets!
I can afford the tickets but only just, they're basically two-thirds of my weekly salary. Also i have to really carefully manage my time in order to get to work on time.
Anyone sometimes feel a bit like their friends are great at organising stuff when the friend is a bit bored but don't really check whether it's ok with you first?! When she was working a lot a few months back I wold never have booked an event and just told her we were going?!
