To be peed off at my friend for wanting to rearrange holiday dates at v last minute?

[allgonebellyup]

AAghhhh
We booked our mini break abroad in january so everything would all be planned out in time. My mate does not have children, nor does the other mate i am going away with.
i was the one who booked, paid and planned the whole holiday although my friend was very excited about it too, and paid me the money owed.
i had to change the flights twice so my friend could keep up her daytime plans on the day we fly out.
i had to organise my ex dh booking 3 days off work so he could come to my house to watch the kiddies whilst i am away. its a huge thing for him to do as he lives farking miles away and cannot always book time off work very easily. so he was very kind for doing all that for me,just so i can go on holiday! i had then also booked "night out" tickets (for clubs etc so we dont have to queue for hours).
We are going in 5 days time.

Last night my phone beeped and it was my mate texting, saying "can we actually go the week after, as ive got a party i have to go to this week??"

WHAT THE FECK??

text back: "NO!"

Hope you get it sorted, and of course YANBU

Or text back "ha ha very funny!! LOL!
Im sooooo excited -been waiting months for this lovely holiday - speak soon!

God she's got a nerve hasnt she??

i did, and she texted back "ok moody!"

i am so peed off, i went to so much effort and so did my dh , just so we could all go away.
she has no children or responsibilities (her mum still does her washing) so i guess she doesnt understand.

I'm not surprised your cross. I'd be livid.

You mate needs to learn a thing or two about commitment and reliability imo.
Appalling behaviour on her part.

"A party I have to go to"! What a load of crap.

you're

Shocking grammar!

Awful childish and self centered behaviour. I'm surprised you want to go on holiday with her????

so let her go to this party and go with your other friend!

bet she won't be so keen on going to the party if she knows you will be going on holiday without her...

YANBU!!!

That is awful! Shows a total lack of appreciation for your situation and all your hard work in sorting it out.

Go anyway - you'll probably have a better time without her!

I'd probably have txt back & said something along the lines of, it's too late now, so go to your party & lose the holiday & put up with the rubbish weather here while I'm sunning myself abroad. No problem!

Sell her ticket.

grrrrrrrrr.....understandable.....grrrr again....they are being bloody cheeky. My sisters do that and they also dont have children. I understand they are busy, however I have stopped planning holidays as far as I am concerned it is a pain in the arse as I end up paying alot more than I should on childcare costs and travel costs. If I did these holidays I never got any thanks anyhow let alone end up doing anything me and my family wanted to do. grrrrrrr I uderstand it is very annoying.

yes i will be quite happy to just go with my other friend, though she has "agreed" to come at the arranged date now (big of her, i know!)

i was already peed off as had to change the flights twice to fit in with her plans!
and this was the ONLY weekend she said she could come , out of the whole summer from May til Oct, whereas my other friend and i could have done any weekend. i wanted to go end may as cheaper!

oh how annoying of her. hope it doesn't spoil the break for you.
