AIBU re: lift giving: will she turn up on Friday or not?

[Whiskeychaser]

Second thread.

Thanks for all the support.

Dreading them coming out od school because I can see my dd getting it in the ear from them, and I'm really feeling for her.

Link to first thread to follow in a minute (when I figure it out).

Right, so instead of asserting yourself and making boundaries, you’ve ditched them and left them stranded while some strangers on the internet cheer your version of events on

Good luck to your DD on Monday

Are you the woman? Why does her DD need good luck? Does OP not giving a lift now warrent DD getting a hard time at school? Coz thats how i read that bit

Ditched them? They made NO plans to give that woman and her daughter a lift home, so how did they ditch them? Left them stranded? They knew there was bad feeling and DIDNT ASK for a lift home, they wernt stranded, they have legs.

OP was assertive, she did a bloody good job!

You can read messages via notifications without opening the message so she’s most probably read it

Amazing thread, well done OP.

Given that she assumed that, after all that had happened, you were going to wait for her while she talked to the coach without having even spoken to you about the whole situation. I'd wager that unless you specifically tell her, she will assume that she can not speak to you until March and then just appear on your doorstep with the dog and expect you to take it. You need to tell her you won't be taking it. No need to do it now though, chill out with your wine, you've certainly earned it.

Like hell are they walking home. She couldn't be bothered to walk to your house, she's not walking home from the club.

I'm off to bed, had enough today.

I will update tomorrow if I hear anything, but I think she'll carry on blanking me.

My dd hasn't replied and won't (today at least).

Goodness I’m so sorry it’s come to this. you’ve been so kind, and to have someone make you into their ‘villain’ it must be so hard. Be kind to yourself and your Dd.

Ps working mum here, I think I’ve asked part time or stay at home mums for help about 4 times overall so far when holiday cover or something has happened. And I’ve always given some money to cover food/fuel/entrance if they are going somewhere. I’m sorry you’ve got such a horrible ‘friend’.

I wouldn't message her but I wouldn't block her just yet either.

Just put her on your dead to me list.

I'd be keeping an eye on your DD also come next week to make sure the daughter isn't being mean at school.

I don’t believe they walked home either. You don’t ignore the texts of someone you think you’re getting a lift off of, make your own way somewhere and then think you’re getting a lift home surely?! What kind of moron is that thick?

"Haha! Do you think we're operating some kind of weird chauffeur service where you both ignore us all day and we still wait around to drive you home on the off chance? Good one!"

Don't send this. I'm just posting as a kind of therapy.

OP, I presume you've got your DD's phone downstairs with you? I'd hate for her to be receiving messages that you don't know about.

Good luck to your DD on Monday

well this is an interesting statement right ? is this a direct Threat to OP's daughter ? has the CF friend found the Thread ?

Worst part is over OP, you've stood your ground today, which was the main change as she's used to you putting up with her. She may try a few nasty moans, but eventually will move on to someone else.

comical at this point: imagine that, OP, after having your polite text ignored all day and then when they didn't come out to even talk to you, you were supposed to be a mind reader as well as a doormat and do her bidding.

Utter cow. Actually hope they did have to walk home.

@LazyDaisey Are you on glue?

Hope you get some rest OP. If they really did walk home for 1hr 20mins but wouldn’t walk a few mins earlier, then that’s just stupid. But I doubt they walked home. It’s astonishing that she’s dragged it out so long and made more of a drama then I ever thought possible. And shit to be communicating via DD. That’s low. Also, @LazyDaisey???! You must be the woman.

“I’d be tempted to drive up and down the route just to see if they are walking (obvs not now, after the wine) and maybe roll the window down and shout ‘good evening ladies’ as I slowly drive past blasting Lizzo’s Good as Hell.”

Oh god I’m pmsl at this 😂😂😂
OP I just wanted to give you a hug I think you’ve been brilliant with this vile CF
for you xx

Good for you Op! A clean break is absolutely the only solution.

See I was all for giving the woman one final lift and then moving on but if someone is proposing to give you a lift, you discuss it properly and you make damn sure you're ready to go when she is. You show gratitude. You don't ignore her all evening and then decide you got business to take care of and she needs to wait.

To all who called me out - give your heads a wobble at your mob mentality. You are the kind of people who enable the existence of a “queen bee” at school playground and secretly thrive on the gossip.

Pathetic.

Lazy daisy is the CF herself

Nice one, OP !

Theres no mob mentality @LazyDaisey just individuals asking you questions which you arent answering

Aaw how cute @LazyDaisey. You're the kind of warped person that probably thinks Pol Pot was all misunderstood and Bokassa just needed some friendly support...

Nice one OP, enjoy your drink!

She's so so rude
