To think this is rude behaviour?

[LookingForAlaskas]

Been on a week away with friends and left this morning.

We were taking the last few bags to the car when I realised one of them was sat waiting in their own car and just drove off without actually saying goodbye.

There had been no falling out and we all ate breakfast together in the morning.

It's a bit odd but I'm not sure I'd go so far as to call it rude.

Bit weird for sure. Sounds like something had bugged them during the week to me.

I’m rubbish at stuff like this. Bit socially rubbish and would probably sit in my car wondering what to do. Maybe it’s nothing.

It's weird, maybe a bit rude, could they have shouted bye and you hadn't heard? Message and ask if they are ok since they left in a hurry, they may have had to dash off for a reason.

Really? I couldn’t imagine spending a week with a group of friends and then not even saying a quick bye to everyone.

Guess people are just different.

Maybe you missed her waving goodbye

they may have had to dash off for a reason.

They didn’t .. which is even odder.

Sounds odd. Could they have needed to leave and thought the rest of you were faffing or something?

I didn’t miss her saying goodbye.

Not sure I'd really be bothered if you'd had a nice week. Maybe they got caught up in getting stuff packed and then were in the car and settled so it made sense just to leave, maybe they're not ones for saying goodbye, who knows. If they're otherwise a nice person who you're friends with then I would just give the benefit of the doubt. You could always get in touch just to check they are OK.

Maybe give them a quick ring and see how they are with you?

Xpost. Was it just you they didn't say bye too?

I think that’s pretty odd. Maybe she had an upsetting phone call or text that made her want to leave abruptly? Otherwise I have no idea. Is she quite scatterbrained? Maybe she just forgot?

Well, there's only one way to find out isn't there? Why don't you speak to her?

Why don’t you just message her and say ‘must had missed your goodbye earlier, thanks for a fab week’ (Or something similar?) and see what she says.

Or ‘you sped off pretty quick, didn’t even get to say goodbye! Everything ok?

Some people (like me) really hate goodbyes and try to avoid them even when we aren’t annoyed.

Really? I couldn’t imagine spending a week with a group of friends and then not even saying a quick bye to everyone.

No, nor could I, which is why I said it was odd.

But saying it's rude assumes a lot. It would be a strange way to make a rude gesture - surely you wouldn't wait in your car at all if you wanted to make a point - you'd leave as soon as you'd got into the car.

How do you know she didn't need to rush off ?
How did she seam before she went ?
If she was completely fine it's does Seam odd .
Is she normally like that ?
Tbh it could be that your overthinking it she may have quickly said bye and went. I'm a bit like that can't be arsed with long drawn out goodbyes.

Yes, same here. Some people treat saying goodbye at the end of a night as if they're setting off on a round the world voyage.
