for being really bloody angry my friends selfish comment!!

[dionnelorraine]

Ok, I am well and truly pissed off!! my friend was supposed to come to mine for the eve tonight for film and snacks. (there is normally 3 of us girls but other friend not free 2nite) However I have just had to cancel as my dd of 2yrs has a bad tummy bug and I have been up all night with her. My 'friend' obviously doesnt believe me as she tx me saying 'what a suprise you have cancelled again' I am livid! The stupid thing is we never get together on our own as our other friend is the glue between us 2 iyswim. I have never cancelled her! I have explained that my dds health is more important than girls night. She is not a mum and generally a selfish sour faced person anyway!(but has her nice side sometimes) We fell out about 4 years ago and didnt speak for a year cos her attitude stinks! She is more worried about what she will do tonight rather than my dd being ill!
I dont want to upset my other friend (how confusing) and future get togethers.

She sounds really selfish. I would text her back and ask her if she fancies swopping her long hot bath and bottle of wine she will be having tonight with you standing in front of your dd with a sick bowl. I find that people without kids just don't seem to get it sometimes. But then I guess I wasn't that understanding before I had ds either.

sorry, but I'd just tell her to fuck off - she's not aperson you need in your life, cut her out. get together with your other friend by yourself.

Let her come anyway and say that actually, it will be great to have someone to share all the up & down stairs, cleaning up vomit and diarrhea (sp?). And what's her top tip for wiping sick off a mattress?

Ha! Like it Emmylou. very tempting!
I have already cut her out once. And your right I dont need her in my life but we have all arranged a girls wk end away in june. there will be 6 of us and I just dont want bad feeling. My dh HATES her and wont let her in the house when he is in. Am I a mug or what!!

I sure the op is still hoping for more responses, nearly 16 years later.
