Friend spends the weekend with me then ‘reviews’ her experience, wtf!?

Friend has been good friend during our uni days. We’ve loosely kept in touch over the years, but different career choices, interests, distance and children have pushed us in different directions.

She messages me out out of the blue to ask about staying a weekend with us. We live in an area popular with tourists.

I’m feeling a bit put out, as don’t fancy hosting, but we had no concrete plans and thought it would be a nice catch up.

Anyway she stays we have dinner out one night. She’s spends a day visiting a popular attraction and we have a nice evening in with a selection of nibbles, pizza, cheese and wine etc. Uneventful, pleasant weekend I feel.

Now i’ve just been browsing FB and looked on her page to see if she’d posted any pictures. To find she’d written quite a lengthy post about her stay. I don’t want to copy and paste, but basically it’s along the lines of, ‘had an okay weekend with Biscusting, staying at her place. Found the breakfast underwhelming and conversation with her DH a bit dry.
The sleigh bed in the guest room was too high and I bumped on the wooden edge so often I have a bruise. The room was too small.’.....the WiFi speed was poor at best’

She goes on to critique the decor and waffles on a lot about the tourist attraction she visited. Then ends the post with ‘all in all i’d give her two stars’

Wtaf is this!? Has she mistaken FB for trip advisor and my home for a hotel!?

We don’t have many shared friends, but people have liked her bloody post. 13 people!

Now the thing is she talked about coming back at the end of July for an exhibition and we made relatively firm plans about her return.

AIBU to tell her to jog on?

Bloody hell, I'd be tempted to send her a bill in the post, given that she was clearly using you as hotel accommodation! What a complete cow.

Worriedandunsurewhattodo · 10/06/2018 13:17

I'd be commenting saying that as she has clearly mistaken your home for a B&B then she has forgotten to pay for her stay.

What a strange person.

Tiredspice2 · 10/06/2018 13:19

Tell her to properly f-off!! This is the thing with bullshit social media sites like Facebook and Instagram - everything seems to be reviewed, judged, documented in a fake way, which fine if you are doing it to yourself, but when you involve other people in this kind of bullshit, it’s just not on! It’s your home, your generous hosting, your privacy that she seems to be reviewing.

How rude of her, this not a friend. She is a total idiot!!

Mummyoflittledragon · 10/06/2018 13:20

You’ve been unfriended Shock. What a cow!

BewareOfDragons · 10/06/2018 13:20

Wow.

What a complete and utter bitch.

You messaged her PRIVATELY to tell her you were hurt about her facebook post and SHE unfriended YOU rather than admit she was completely out of line.

Wow.

You are well rid.

BewareOfDragons · 10/06/2018 13:21

Now I hope this makes the dailyfail and she and her 'friends' see her and recognize her in it.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/06/2018 13:28

No explanation? No apology? And no thanks for the weekend? What's she playing at? She clearly has a screw loose and lives her life through social media, caring more about virtual likes than actually being liked.
She'll get her comeuppance OP . Most people see through all that shit sooner or later.

You sound like a great host. Concentrate on your genuine friends. Sorry you wasted your weekend and all those lovely meals on a flake. Sad

SusanneLinder · 10/06/2018 13:30

She is no loss OP....what a horrible person.

GahWhatever · 10/06/2018 13:36

Wow. I honestly thought it was a misjudged joke and she'd apologise. Did not see that coming at all! So sorry OP.

SilverBirchTree · 10/06/2018 13:55

😲

YouTheCat · 10/06/2018 13:58

I hope she doesn't still turn up in July secretly hopes she does for pure devilment .

Aeroflotgirl · 10/06/2018 13:58

I know it is too late, but I would have put on her wall, I personally would have under that statement "wow is this how you treat a friend, after spending a weekend in their house".

FilledSoda · 10/06/2018 14:00

She goes from bad to worse.
I thought you'd get an apology and an explanation about her joke going wrong but to unfriend you ?
Can you still post to her page , ie is it public ?

Mxyzptlk · 10/06/2018 14:02

I have been unfriended

That confirms she's a weirdo.
An actual friend, even a socially awkward one, would at least try to explain themselves if they didn't mean to be rude.

MadMags · 10/06/2018 14:14

So, no excuses. She is just a raging fuckbag.

Try to put it from your head now, OP. She's not worth the head space.

MrsMotherHen · 10/06/2018 14:14

for once I think the mail should pick this up.

DameDoom · 10/06/2018 14:15

Just read half the thread. She unfriended you Shock what a complete tit. She has made an absolute twat of herself. God - am cringing for her.
Do not sweat this OP.

AcrossthePond55 · 10/06/2018 14:29

She unfriended you, but who cares?

I'm not on FB but wouldn't unfriending be the same as having a pain in the arse neighbour up sticks and move? She's gone, she's out of your life. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

bringbacksideburns · 10/06/2018 14:31

You can still put something up on your wall OP about it if you think it will help with the rage, and how when you called her out privately she unfriended you without an apology.

I would also put on the end that mutual friends who liked her comment might want to unfriend you too as clearly your feelings don't seem to matter much to them either.

Then put it behind you.

Yuk!

nervousnails · 10/06/2018 14:33

Make sure you make it clear (because she is a thick fuckwit) that she is not welcome anymore!

I would text her:

You have behaved appallingly and to unfriend me rather than apologize is pathetic. I find your behavior really cruel.

I have a screen shot of your selfish post (whether you do or not) and will be posting it to FB myself with a really explanation of your behavior to make sure no one else is caught out by your selfish nature unless you confirm that you have removed that post and put an apology on your wall. After you’ve confirmed you’ve done that never contact me again.

And don’t play the victim with those teenage memes on FB. This situation is entirely your fault.

retainertrainer · 10/06/2018 14:38

Bizarre behaviour!

Pinkyponkcustard · 10/06/2018 14:46

Yes come on daily mail! This awful woman cannot be allowed to get away with this!

Flowers We love you op
