To Be Upset That My Alledged Best Friend Has Invited My Ex-H Over For Sups?

[OhCallistoSolo]

Looking for some perspective here as I really don't know if I'm being unreasonable or not.

I haven't been invited by my best friend for supper (or anything else for that matter) since January. My ex-h has been invited twice that I know of, and the other couple we all see have been regular visitors. My best friend, with and without her husband, has been for sups with me countless times. Every time she comes over she tells me that she must invite me round for sups. Am I being over-sensitive to feel really upset that my ex-h gets and invite when I don't?

You invite your friend round. Maybe your ex does not invite her round. She wants to maintain contact with both of you, so she invites him. Perhaps stop inviting her or preferably talk to her.

The thought of Othello having kitchen sups is quite extraordinary. I bet he invited that dashed decent Danish fellow-what's his name- Ham-something? Oh Kate and Petrucers of course. And Rosalind to cheer up the Danish chap......

The OP really doesn't deserve this. It's incredibly immature.

Exactly.

If MNHQ ever write a book, the title should be "Peace and Love"

OP, it's clearly upsetting you (understandably). I think you should challenge her on it - in a naice way. It seems you have nothing to lose. If she's a good friend to you and has no ulterior motive, then she will see she has upset you - and presumably invite you for sups. If she doesn't want to be your friend as much she wants to be your ex's friend, then that's something you need to know. So you can move on.

But a word of warning, OP, perhaps your friend like others on this thread, thinks sups is something to do with BJs. In which case that's why you've not been included. I have to confess 'sups' has not come up in any conversations I've had - but I am very common. Though I look after my children very well, have a big vocabulary, and rarely drink cheap booze.

I'm really quite posh and I've never heard "sups" used to refer to supper. I'd assume that anyone using it was either trying overly hard to be ironic or indeed, to appear more upper class than they are), or had no clue as to how to use the English language.

Other than that, OP, your "best friend" has chosen your ex over you.

Furthermore, anyone choosing to use the phrase "sups" on Mumsnet probably has a very good idea of how much a hoohaa it'd cause...

Op mentions her best friend and husband as well as another couple.

Has your ex got a new gf and are you single? It might be as someone suggested that she invites couples together and the girls separately.

"Tups 'n' sups" could become a thing.

Like "Netflix 'n' chill" for the Rutshire brigade.

I work with a very posh girl who has talked about "sups" before. I was too common unsure what she meant but now I know!

"Sups" is now on my list of words I do not care for and do not wish to hear again.

Combine it with other words on that list for true nightmare scenarios. "Moist sups"

My mother, who knows nothing about beer, got in about 20 cans of Crucial Brew for the beer drinkers one Christmas. My dh, my brother and my uncle Trevor were off their faces.

I've mixed with posh types but have never heard the word sups before either. Op doesn't seem to be terribly nice going by her second post; I can't understand the sympathy from some posters .

OP, I don't think anyone is offended by the use of the word sups, it's just that it's a ridiculously silly word that you used in almost every sentence.

Kitchen Sups was something that happened in Rutshire in Jilly Cooper Books (helpful)

Died laughing, sorry OP. Came back to life, died a bit more.

Talk to your friend, tell her how you feel, if shes a bitch and i suspect she is, fuck her off and don't bother with her again.

And no, no one is offended by the use of the term 'sups' for an evening meal, its just so incredibly pretentious it makes our eyes bleed.

I do want to know if you have them in the kitchen with the housemaid or in the dining room like normal educated folk though.

#supsgate 😂😂😂

Anyway,, your friend is definitely being U.

I am back to my Tennants and Sky on an 80 inch TV while smoking 5 fags at a time. Sadly didn't have kids I can abandon to the streets

but I can spell alleged

I knew what tupping was before this thread . I watched High Spirits this weekend, purely to see a young Liam Neeson rise ghostly and semi-naked in the bath tub, AND Daryl Hannah was talking about tupping with Steve Guttenburg.
Very educational.

Upon first glance of the thread title I actually thought sups meant suppositories

I guess all of you offended people live on sink estates and would rather buy fags and special brew then feed your children?

Excuse me but living in a relatively naice area, I first feed my 4 children living with me, that's when the other three aren't staying with their fathers and THEN go to buy fags and my daily bottle of something nice and warming.
And sups gave me a WTF is this moment.

Well I've learned a new word! Tupping grin and I'm supposedly a vaguely intelligent person.

I knew it relates to people too. I once read a very badly written time-travel romance and tupping was used in copious amounts by the main muscular and raggedly handsome hero who had to travel 7 centuries to get a shag.

Hi guys.

Whassup(s)?

Well this is a thread that turned inadvertently hilarious.

But surely the real question should be: Is he tossing-a-salad at her house as well? 'Cause that will tell you all you need to know.

OP, sorry for the fun. Unfortunately, some women, who you think are loyal, actually betray you when they have an opportunity. It's happened to me a couple of times and it's very hurtful, but some women put men first, and see life as a competition between women, no matter how close they are to female friends. I would distance myself a bit or you will keep getting hurt.

If sups means blowjob, that would explain it.

'A couple of sups should do the trick' was the standard solution for complaints of constipation when I was nursing back in the early 70's.They were either glycerine or some sort of white,hard chalky stuff that were anally inserted (shoved up the patient's bum)for those less posh.
