To cancel plans with friend if she won't pick me up?

So my friend invited me to her local pub at the weekend (opposite her house) she lives over a hour away and said I will pick you up.
So I said great that sounds like a plan and il get the trains/bus home (it's 2 trains and a bus ) which takes just short of 2 hours but I thought 1 way isn't too bad.
Then she says "actually thinking about it its easier for me if you do the same coming as well "

Now I just don't fancy doing all that travelling as it was bad enough doing it the way home never mind getting there too.
So I suggested meeting halfway and she takes the train and we meet in middle-she said no she can't be bothered with that carry on on a Saturday and just wants to roll home drunk.
I honestly can't be bothered to do all the travelling
Aibu to cancel ?

I think you live too far away from each other to meet up just for a night at the pub. Either you would be doing a 2 hour trip on public transport, or she has to do a 2 hour round trip to pick you up.

I would go on a day trip somewhere east for you both to get to, or find some way to stay for the weekend when you visit one another.

And she just wanders across the road?
Hell no.

" O dear, it's just to exhausting to contemplate. Maybe another time when we can meet in the middle"

Stacy, I reckon it might be a little late to reply, given the thread was started in September last year.

ZOMBIE everyone.

Wow she really doesn't value you as a friend at all does she? Yeah of course it is easier for her if you do ALL the travelling for her sake!
I'd be backing away

This is a thread from September, I'm sure it's all done and dusted 😂
