Totally expecting to get flamed for this. Live in a city and all or friends decided to move to more leafy green areas not too far but with minimal public transport and a about £50 in a taxi. Since then they seem to have decided that every single social event needs to be in the sticks. Fair enough and we can't really make it because as well as transport there's childcare involved.
What really irks me is that someone (from out in the countryside) will organise an event in our city. We'll be able to go, arrange childcare and then one by one our friends will say they can't make it and eventually it'll be us and the organiser and they'll cancel it. We'll usually then cancel our childcare as dh will be tired from work and won't fancy just forcing ourselves to do something for the sake of it/save up childcare point for when we need it. Then on the joint what's app group all the people who were too busy to go out will have instead all gone out to pub where they are instead.
I know IBU to expect them to trek to the city where we are but to arrange something we can go to, then cancel last minute but then still all meet up without us, then spam it all over a messaging group they know we're in (with accompanying social media posts about "we're having the BEST day" "with my fave people in the world") is a bit a) childish b) insensitive etc. It was also behaviour like this that led to me developing bad PND.
Dh cgaf but has a lot of social interaction with his job and I've tried muting conversations etc but then we'll get another invite and it'll all start over again. It's SO frustrating.
