To ask what is the most ridiculous reason someone has fallen out with you?

[Rainbowb]

Need a bit of solidarity right now!

@piefacedClique I have one of those friends too. I keep hoping she’ll fall out the other side of the hole!

I agree with all the criticisms of @KatherineofTarragon but I don't think she'll be back given this is a zombie thread.

Been a great read though. Nowt as queer as folk!

I didn’t call a friend on her sons 6th birthday. I had told her a couple of days before I had a present for him so she knew I hadn’t completely forgotten. But mainly, I had found out the night before that my sister had cancer and was in a bit of a daze that day. I didn’t tell her this for a while, until she had pushed the passive aggressive limit and ultimately accused me of being a terrible friend/letting her down all over not calling her on her sons birthday. She then raged at me for making her feeling guilty. I didn’t do anything of the sort. We were good mates but former work colleagues who had only known each other for a few yrs and caught up a couple of times a month. totally disproportionate reaction. Never spoke to her again.

I asked a colleague to take a letter downstairs to the outgoing post tray whilst she was on her way downstairs anyway. Apparently this was evidence I thought I was better than everyone and she fell out with me.

Cancelling a play date because my child was ill.
Had the husband on the phone shouting at us!

Friends with an antenatal group - we all got on well and 4 of us and husbands/partners met up regularly with babies all good.

One antenatal friend "Jane" and husband "John" lived close and we met up for walks, drinks and whatnot, nice couple...Jane was pregnant again very quickly with a second baby.

Then DH saw John at the airport with his arm around a lady who he rapidly disentangled himself from and introduced as his "work colleague"..DH wouldn't have even spoken apart from the fact he was standing behind him in the queue and hadn't really clocked him until he turned round and got the shock of his life..

Dh and I discussed, but weren't really sure what to do as she had a 6 month old and another on the way.

Never saw or heard from Jane and John again. God knows what he told her, but utter blank from then on (to the whole antenatal friend group). I did tell the rest of the antenatal group eventually at a later date what had happened but only when it was clear we were never going to hear from Jane and John again!

They are still together and that was 15 years ago.

Chose a Mumsnet antenatal group second time round! Still in touch 13 years later and no dramas!

Because I couldn't turn her crappy phone pictures of her mother's cat into some sort of artistic masterpiece as a birthday gift for said mother, necessitating a shopping trip to purchase an alternative gift.

(I'm a keen amateur photographer and skilled in the use of Photoshop etc - hence why she asked me to do it)

My sister hasn't spoken to me for 18 months and I have absolutely no idea why

A friend was (not so secretly) in love with a mutual friend. She arranged a night out with people and he didn't show. She got unbelieveably drunk and then angry and i left her - not on her own. She rang me up screaming and crying down the phone about what a cow I was. I had to switch my phone off. Apparently she then started ringing round all of our friends slagging me off at 3am.....I'd literally done nothing! I suspect she was going to make a play for him that night and she took it out on me when he didn't show. It wrecked our friendship we do speak but we're not close anymore and she's never admitted what a bell end she was!

Another mum at school when DS was about 10.
We did a car share with her DS and I was running late so asked DH to get the boys.

She rang me about 5.30 shouting and ranting about how it was completely unacceptable/ a breach of trust/ a safeguarding issue/ "not in our agreement" for DH to collect the kids and that I should have cleared it with her first .

She had met DH, who is perfectly lovely, has no criminal record etc and her son had been to ours to play many times in DH's care while I was at work.

She cut off all contact. Bizarre.

My daughter was in a job which required giving personal care to adults with severe disabilities. One day she was left with the clients while the other staff members attended a meeting in the same building. The meeting over-ran, so by the time the others came back she had done all the pre lunch personal care. Her colleague and close friend wouldn't speak to her again, saying "It's not fair, you did all the personal care". Could have understood it if my daughter had eaten all the chocolate!

A very long term male friend of mine fell out with me because I couldn't condone him cheating on his pregnant wife. Apparently me telling him that he was fucking despicable was not the action he expected from a supportive friend.

Because I used the 'nice' chair two days in a row. Very strange office environment on the whole but a couple of people were convinced that this particular chair was better than the rest, personally could never tell the difference but apparently I used it two days running and one colleague ignored me for 2 weeks over it! I only sat on it because it was at my desk when I turned up that morning

When I was a teenager a friend asked me if I thought she would be good in bed (neither of us were even having sex) I said I had no idea and she went mental. It was all so weird

This had me falling about laughing!

One of mine...
Had a friend who wanted endless support, awful love life, no money, everything wrong.
I helped her out financially, I paid for a holiday for her, she pestered me for some of my clothes and I gave in, I took her for meals etc. We talked constantly.
One day, she ignored me. Didnt think anything of it. Tried again a day or two later. The same.
This went on for weeks.

Until she said she didnt want contact with me anymore because I was too needy!

Eh? She was the one who needed constant reassurance, money, and support.
Silly cow
Glad I have nothing to do with her now!

Because I couldn’t attend her 40th birthday weekend as I had no childcare. My husband wasn’t available unfortunately, he’d died a few months earlier.

I went on holiday with a friend to Cuba for the first time. It was an all inclusive resort with all sorts of activities, including food, sports and salsa classes for free. My friend threw a massive strop when I was looking excitedly at the brochure in the hotel room and accused me of being too happy and full on (and that she'd just come to relax!) Come on, this is Cuba we're talking about!
She didn't speak to me for the rest of the holiday and even sat apart from me on the plane back to the UK . We never saw each other again after we landed......

I had the audacity to try and book (and pay for), a weekend away that ex FWB said he really wanted to go on. We've not spoken since

One friend stopped talking to me when I got a boyfriend. I'd always been her single friend and had already 'embarrassed' her by not wanting to let her "boyfriend" (aka sleazy lecturer 20+ years older) 'make a woman' of me.

Another friend cut me off from social media when I posted a message on her timeline asking how she and her (long standing) boyfriend were. This was a week after we had been to dinner at her house

• I'd told her that I couldn't eat anything spicy or meaty due to dietary issues and she got her boyfriend to cook curry, which I was unable to eat.

My mother no longer considers me to be part of the family because I dared to get married.......I was 40 when I got married.
Not sure what I was supposed to do instead, be a spinster forever? I was disinherited.

I was out of work and skint so told my friend I couldn't travel all the way over to the other side of London to go out for the night. I told her a week before, she sent a shitty message so I told her to speak to me when she was willing to apologise and I never heard from her again. Have to say it was kind of a relief, she was hard work.

@GlamGiraffe

Because I dont like Vienetta😯 The other person was so outraged and upset she left in tears. We could never truly bond.

I see you met my daughter 🤣

Look after her in her old age, I suspect.

I live on a 70s housing estate. We bought a house that had the original aluminium windows.

All the neighbours had white uPVC windows except one. She had dark mahogany.

We chose the same as the dark doesn't show the dirt as quick.

That woman did not speak to me for 5 years 🤣

At ds hobby there was a Christmas party which my friend volunteered to arrange. I said ooh, see if you can book (location). She told me she wasn’t a fucking idiot, walked off and got in her car. I was like 🤨. She didn’t speak to me for about 6 months. Still to this day don’t know why.

I wouldn't babysit her dcs so she could go on a date as I was unwell.
