Friend of 10 years, dds are friends for the same amount of time and we usually meet up every school holiday now dds are in secondary. I have 3 dc and she has 1 if that’s relevant.
Last week we were considering going to a local fair together but it was raining so we changed to the weekend. Friend suggested meeting for a walk and icecream on Saturday but said she had stuff to do first she would txt time to meet, she then didn’t contact me at all. Which is so unlike her.
I then get a second msg the following day with no apology or word about the first meet up no show suggesting to take the dds out for dinner on Monday. I thought about mentioning the weekend plans to her and asking her what happened, but I decided to chalk it up to forgetfulness.
On the day of the dinner dd is all ready to go and at 5pm I message friend to ask what time we are meeting and she replies to say her dd is now doing a ‘quick’ tennis lesson at 6.30pm! I am speechless at this point. The dds are 11 and starving. I start cooking dinner for dd as clearly the dinner is off! Friend rang at 7.38pm, she didn’t leave a message, it was obviously too late to go out at that point. Friend has not texted since. No apology just silence.
What do you make of this? She is not super busy, she has one child and doesn’t work and she is usually very organised.
Am I being unreasonable here? I am not impressed because dd was let down and she had turned down another invite. I have no idea what to say to friend or where we go from here. Any advice welcome!
