To be annoyed they went for breakfast without me?

[simplesimonee]

Me and two friends went away for the weekend on Saturday.
They picked me up at 9am and said giggling they had just been to McDonald's for breakfast.
The McDonald's is only 5 min drive from my house and they didn't think to pick me something up or even pick me up and then go.
They sat in the car park and were late picking me up.
I know it's something not even worth thinking about but it's just a bit meh.

Thoughtless to not ask you but probably a last minute decision.

I wouldn’t take it personally or give it any more headspace for that reason - and they even told you they had it so didn’t seek to hide it.

People are dying...

There are always people dying.

I suppose the question for the OP is, if she was dying, would they have bothered to give her a McD's last meal?

“People are dying”

It doesn’t mean people can’t complain about other less serious problems

It’s not nice being left out - even if it’s from a maccy Ds. But this doesn’t seem to really be a case of being left out

I would actively thank them for not picking me up owt from that sink pool. The lateness, however, would get up my snout.

@gwackywacky They should have texted you they were there so you could have driven over to ketchup with them

OP, you sound like you've got a bit of a chip on your shoulder. I struggle to find the sauce of your annoyance.

This reminds me of the OP who’s always posting about her Cinderella relationship with 2 mates. What do you think OP, do you think maybe they don’t like you?

It was unkind & not a good start to the weekend.

How was the rest of the weekend?

Sorry, that was a bit cheesy.

People are dying...

What are you doing on here then?? Off you fuck and save them.

Say "fair enough, but should you dare go to Wimpeys for breakfast without me then there will be trouble!"

Bit thoughtless, especially as it made them late picking you up.

It was more than likely a last minute decision to do it.

If this is the kind of thing that upsets you, I think you probably need to work on your self esteem a bit.

Come back OP!

Win - win situation
They feel slightly ill and wish they ate something resembling real food, and hope their stomach can digest 25 antioxidants, preservatives and numbers, while you get to feel well and can splurge on yummy real food while on a weekend away.

YANBU They should have at least asked if you wanted anything ( but I would say no thanks to Mc Dead food)

I think the op's upset because this kind of thing suggests the old adage of two's company three's a crowd. It would make me feel a bit on the edge of the group and a bit surplus to requirements. Different if they'd set out two hours before and stopped for breakfast. Not very inclusive when you live around the corner to the Mcdonalds.

It's the way it separates the group of three into 'them' and 'the OP'. It makes her the outsider, if only temporarily.

Context is all OP - did you feel like you were playing gooseberry all weekend, or did it even out fairly quickly? If it's the former, then YANBU. the latter, well it stings a bit, but let it go.

Oh, give over.

Mate, you should've insisted on a drive-thru before you got underway.

I would have assumed if you were just about to be picked up that you already had had breakfast - sorry this would not bother me.

You were at home ready to be picked up. I'd have assumed you'd had breakfast already, whereas they were on the road and hungry. You are way overthinking this. You went away for the whole weekend with them. What does 10mins eating a mcmuffin in a car park matter?? Especially when you live five mins from it and can breakfast there whenever you like. If you get the hump about this kind of piffle, I'm not surprised they wanted a quick brekkie for two to brace themselves. They just shouldn't have mentioned it.

No, that's rude. And most shit doesn't bother me.

But if we were all going away together, I'd be pissed off. You're not likely to stop until lunch, so they're nicely sorted and you're left hungry and waiting for them to want to eat again?

It's just rude whichever way you look at it. And it made them late.

The fact that they were a)late b)didn't ask you if you wanted anything and c) were all silly and giggly about it makes me think that they were leaving you out and being a bit unkind. I'd be upset too.

To add, this sort of thing is why I never do anything anymore in a group of 3. It never works and I always get left out

It’s not a numbers thing (might be for young children) it’s a people thing.

My two oldest closest friends... two of them. We go away every year as a three - and it is just wonderful. 20 years and going strong

I can't believe some people are so sensitive they'd be hurt by their friends stopping on thr way to collect the, for a quick Maccy ds in th car park. I've no idea how some people get through the day.

And someone actually called it a restaurant. 😂
