Friend’s behaviour

[Zig27]

I only noticed recently that a woman who is in our friendship group that her WhatsApp status and last time seen are no longer visible. She does post in our WhatsApp group. I assume that means I’m not in her contacts.

I have always regarded her more as an acquaintance but have not made that obvious. This was due to the fact that as she was desperate for a man and soon as she met her now husband she dropped everyone and the group drifted apart. We used to go for weekends away and to the pub but when her husband came along that all ceased.

We now only all meet twice a year for a ‘catch up’. I have found the friendship group pretty pointless, catching up about someone’s life you are not part of. It’s not like we go for meals, walks or weekends away anymore like her pre-husband days.

If we do hear off her it’s only about photos of her children. I have nothing against the children and think they are sweet but she is just attention seeking and only focused on herself. I like to hear other people’s news but share my news too.

I just can’t understand what the annual/twice a year meetings are for, for people who are now aquaintances.

In your OP you wrote, "I have always regarded her more as an acquaintance but have not made that obvious."

How were we meant to know that when you said always, you only meant much later on?

But who are the other people I this group?? Why is she the one getting the blame for the group not being active

YABU to overanalyse her wattsapp settings yet clearly not understand how they work, and YABU to be offended hy her behaviour when you clearly don’t even like her.

Either leave the group (just tell them you’re reducing wattsapp use), mute it, or understand it and don’t get offended by trivia.
