One of my best friends and I have grown apart over the last 12-18 months a bit. Have gone from seeing each other a couple of times a week to maybe once every 5-6 weeks.
We won't talk for a couple of weeks and then we'll both say how we must catch up blah blah. Inevitably it's normally a couple of weeks before this happens- fine.
Friend has made new friends over the past 12-18 months that we've grown apart and that's fine, so have I, that's life it's all good. However, the last few times we've met up she insists on bringing some of these friends or just doesn't tell me and I'll rock up at the pub and they'll be there. Most of them are pleasant enough don't get me wrong but I kind of just want to catch up just her and I.
It's been 2 months since we last saw one another and last week she texted saying we must meet up next week (this week) I messaged her on Sunday night to say was she free Wed eve (tonight) she said 'Yes think so, I'm going to the pub at 8ish I think' I said 'oh okay what pub, I might pop down for a drink' she's just texted back saying 'It'll probably be X pub, if we go, I'll keep you posted.'
I'm a bit like 
so hang on a minute, have you or have you not already got plans tonight?! If you have fine, we just won't do tonight?! She's making it sound like she might go to the pub with these friends, if so I can 'tag along' for a drink, but equally she might not be and might just be having an evening at home after work, in which case she is free? Just not for me?
Her and I have always had a really good, honest friendship. She's a really caring and conscientious person normally, so I really fail to see how she could be oblivious to how she's making me feel lately.
I don't know why she can't have just texted back saying 'No can't do Wed, how about X night?' (Even if that was not for another week or so) I don't want to go to the bloody pub with her and her new friends again. I just want an hour or so's catch up just her and I, or hell, even with some mutual friends of ours, that's fine, just not with people that I don't know as we never get to catch up, it's always half interrupted convos etc.
I feel like she's not really bothered about being friends anymore as she can't bare to be alone with me? In which case why not just tell me?
I know I'm going to have to say something to her, I just feel awkward and angry that she's put me in the position of having to say something.
If you can't even manage an hours catch up over a wine one on one with one of your 'supposed' best friends once every couple of months, without bringing a posse of ransoms then really, is there any point?! In which case why doesn't she just leave it and drift off, instead of the 'oh we must catch up soon/ next week/ at such and such event' etc.
AIBU? Should I be wanting more to socialise with all her new friends? She has met some of my more recent friends, but that's been at things line my birthday or big, social events like weddings, rather than me bringing them along on a catch up with her?
