I was sat at work yesterday when I received a text off a friend, asking when I was next free. Let's call her Jane. Jane is in her 50's and I met her though church as I used to go with my parents when I was a teenager! I am now early 20's. Jane means very well but can be rather full on. I love meeting her but sometimes find it tiring especially as I am 23 weeks pregnant at the moment and work full time!
I replied to Jane saying I had a day off tomorrow( which is now today ) and on Monday, but had to stay late at work as there was a wedding going on at the hotel where I work and may need to stay until around 1am!
Got a message back asking if I can pick her up before 10am and take her to coffee, which I usually would agree to but I asked if we could do later due to me having a very late finish!
Jane then was a bit put out - stating ' we'll pick me up at 4 and we will get some coffee'
Which sounded nice so I agreed of course!
Urgh... This morning I woke up feeling completely drained and with a bad sore throat, texted Jane as soon as I woke up apologising and saying I would probably have to spend the day in bed and can we do tomorrow? She then went on to say ' well I find that disappointing...' Woke up to find missed calls and texts saying 'don't worry about picking me up and going out, I'll just get a cab to your house!!' thank goodness I woke up then to explain I was very sorry but planning to spend the day in bed as felt very poorly. Got a reply saying ' well I had some important things to discuss with you to do with your pregnancy '
I just feel bad that I let her down! But feel slightly annoyed that if I hadn't have seen that text when I did she would still be over and I'd have to be making her tea and coffee and dinner??? Please help Aibu? I'm usually so relaxed about everything but can't stop feeling irritated. Sorry again for the massive message x
