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

[Rainbowb]

Need a bit of solidarity right now!

I still have no idea why a friend fell out with me .

Originally we became good friends through an antenatal group and met up regularly. One day I was at her house and her phone rang, she told me she always screened calls and only answered if it was someone she wanted to talk to. Roll on a few weeks and my calls were being ignored and she ghosted me. We didn't speak for 5 years after that and I have no clue why I was ghosted.

We ended up working in the same place and she surprised me by talking! Over time we'd stop to chat if we met in the corridor and even met up for coffee a couple of times, however, I was always on my guard in case she dropped me again.

Eventually she did just that, one day I met her in the street and said hello and she turned her head and walked off without a word. That was 2 years ago and now if we meet she either glares or makes a point of turning her head away.

Haven't a clue what I did on either occasion and she won't be getting a third chance should she ever try.

The DW of my EXH fell out with me because I said that according to astrology, she was incompatible with her DH . It was at a party and I was talking shit about my childhood obsession with horoscopes and everyone wanted to know who was compatible with who - total drunken bollocks. She was very upset apparently.

When I was 11 I was one of only two girls that went to my secondary from my primary. As luck would have it, I had to walk to school past her house so we went together.

About half way through the year I knocked at her house and her mum said she’d already left got to school and stopped at the lockers and she said “people don’t stay friends forever you know ” this was nearly 30 years ago and I remember it verbatim!

We never spoke again and I am as baffled now as I was then. She wasn’t a ‘popular girl’ or anything so trying to big herself up.

I wouldn’t be a vegan with her. She hated me for it, haven’t spoke In 8 years.
Or she hasn’t replied when I’ve reached out.

Duh that was meant to be my ex's BFF DW.

Because I didn't call them regularly despite the fact they didn't call me either. They would also get upset with me and send passive aggressive messsges when I messaged to check in during pandemic. Have finally blocked this person.

I asked a girl I lived with at university if she was ok as I saw she had been crying.
Apparently this made me a 'fucking nosey bitch', who only asked so I could 'tell everyone else her business' and as a consequence they were all going to go out that night together so they could have a 'proper good bitch about me'.
I over heard this as they were all gathered in the room next door discussing my transgression.
I genuinely was worried if she was ok and I still can remember his hearing them say this felt like I had been punched in the gut.

I thought of one for me. Friend who had emigrated (and had been a bit of a dick to me just before she went tbh).
Rang me out of the blue and she was home for Xmas. PIL were staying, they were not friendly at all, so wasn’t appropriate for her to come round, it would have been awful. So I suggested we meet at a pub half way between mine and her parents for starters. For some reason this offended her, she started saying she was really busy and wasn’t sure she had the time.
I don’t know if she was super annoyed I didn’t invite her round, maybe I should have, would have given her something to be pissed off about. Never heard from her again.

I had a friend that just started blanking me when I said hello or tried to chat (saw them most days). I left it a while and then texted to ask if the were upset with me. A very long reply followed about how you should confide in friends and it boiled down to I didn't tell them I had arranged a minor change in my hours at work.

The affect is that I confide a lot less now, as I don't know when I will put a foot wrong.

Because I didn’t abort my baby.

Granted, when DH and I got pregnant with our eldest, we were students, we’d been dating for a matter of weeks and we lived separately. When I told one of my best friends I was pregnant, she said ‘you have to get rid, then have a real baby when you’re in a better place’ then told me that ‘think of it as a parasite not a baby’

Looking back, I (sort of) agree with her reasoning - DH and I were incredibly naive and stupid when we proceeded with our pregnancy, and had it not been for immense family support and luck, maybe we wouldn’t be as successful or happy as we are now.

However, when I told her I wasn’t going to abort my baby, she told me ‘she wouldn’t watch me chuck my life down the shitter for a baby with a random loser I met in a bar’ and that was that. Never saw or heard from her again!

Same as other posters: it’s when something good happens for you (even if it’s kept discreet), such as an achievement or a relationship. Shocking really. Very sad.

My friend was having a baby shower for her 1st child. I was heavily pregnant with dd1. I told her I would love to come but couldn’t commit as it was close to my due date. Said I would try to pop in for a drink and drop off the present if I was able to.
The night before the baby shower I went into labour, and gave birth at 3am. After we had told family dh put up a picture on Facebook of dd announcing her arrival.
One of my other friends saw the post at the baby shower and must have showed other people. The friend who’s shower it was apparently burst into tears and wailed I was trying to steal her thunder.
A few days later I tried to text her to see how the shower went and asking if she was in later on that day to drop off the present if bought. She’d blocked me on everything.
I phoned my friend who was at the shower and she told me the whole Rose is stealing my thunder tale. 5 years later I’m still blocked. On dd’s last birthday the same friend was round dropping off a present. She was cackling wildly and told her I had to look at her Facebook. The ex friend had shared Facebook memories of her shower with the caption. “Such a lovely day until it was all ruined, some people are just awful”.
I mean I guess I could have crossed my legs and waited- absolute rudeness of me

My best friend in high school fell out with me over a boy band - she was obsessed with one of them and thought he was the best singer, I disagreed and said I thought he was more charismatic than a good singer and she started to cry

We made up but I've never forgotten the disbelief I felt

My then husband parked outside her house ( no off road parking , terraced housing ) she phoned me as we were having lunch to say he had to move his car . I pointed out that no one had an automatic right to the piece of road outside their house . Never spoke to me again.

I was accused of lying when I didn't lie, friend had it all wrong in her head, had overheard a conversation, put 2 and 2 together and made 5. What followed was then a barage of vile abuse and accusations from said friend over text ... and on my birthday. Lovely.

I confided in a friend about being assaulted by someone more than twice my age.
Apparently I was cheating on my boyfriend.

A friend from school who me and my BFF (also her friend) flat shared with after uni. She decided one day to move in with her boyfriend, all fine except it was in the middle of our tenancy agreement so we were stuck with the extra rent and she never saw or spoke to us again . She was always jealous of other people and absolutely obsessed with getting a boyfriend, we can laugh about it now but it was so weird!

My NCT group dropped me because I went back to work after maternity leave.

A friend fell out with me because I wouldn't ditch all my other friends so she would be my only one. Sounds like it happened in primary school but we were both 25

When I was 15 my friend came round to my house to see if I wanted to go to the youth club thing we would go to. I said no, I was really ill, horrendous chest infection I could barely breathe. She never spoke to me again because I left her to go alone.

Rose789,
Your daughter had such a lucky escape. suppose you had arrive a day later than you were still friends with this person. Can you imagine the amount of hassle you and your daughter would get if, your DD did anything first or better than her child!

My nail lady (who I’d been going too for years)

Told me 2 weeks before my wedding that she wasn’t going to do my wedding nails (that I had booked in for over a year). Because my mum had missed her last app with her

My mum!!! Not me. Not anyone else. But apparently because my mum had missed her app. That meant I didn’t get my nails done for my wedding. We didn’t have a big wedding. So no biggie. Made me proper lols when she sent me this long message about it.

Ridic!

I've another, I visited my best friend from childhood to see her new baby. Her partner came home from after work drinks drunk and proceeded to kick the crap out of her for not having his dinner ready. I intervened to try and get him to stop and ended up with a black eye for my troubles.

The next I rang to check up on her and she told me she could no longer be friends with me because I clearly fancied her partner and wanted to shag him? She had taken him back and he'd blamed me the fight on me.

Friend A was telling me about Friend B's bad behaviour (nasty messages on social media etc). I don't use SM so hadn't seen any of it, nor was I involved in it, whereas A was. B walked past as I was stood there not speaking, simply listening.
B very pally with A still, but sent me a message telling me that we were no longer friends and never to speak to her again. B and I went back 16 years, A came on the scene later.

B is of the character that you're only good to her when you're useful for something. A still serves a purpose for something. I no longer do.

My two friends went on holiday without me specifically picking dates I couldn't make when I could make several others.

I was really hurt and felt let down....turns out I was in the wrong for not messaging them on the morning of the flight to have a good time and the one fell out with me when they got back!!

Not spoken for several years now and do not miss her at all!

@whoami24601

My sister fell out with me in November 2018 because she had an argument with my mum 🤷‍♀️ we haven't spoken since and she tells everyone it's my fault! She didn't come on a family holiday (already paid for and she's terminally on benefits so doesn't have loads of spare cash!) Because apparently I'd been so mean!

I've had similar with my mother. I got home from work one day, switched on my phone and there were multiple messages from my mother telling me that she was sick of being disrespected by my DB and I. That she no longer felt that she could be Nanny to my children and that they'd need to call her by her Christian name from now on. It went on and on. Transpired that my brother had let slip that he was going to a funeral that she didn't approve of him going to. She'd told him not to go and for the first time ever, he'd stuck up for himself and told her that he'd do as he pleased (he was 32 at this point).

Clearly it was my fault and I had manipulated him into it. Despite living 150 miles away and having no idea that he planned to attend the funeral (that I was also attending, but had not told mother that).

Funnily enough I'm NC with her now.
