Invited friend for Easter lunch. Rude response?!

So I invited one of my closest friends over for lunch on Sunday after church. He's on his own, I'm on my own. Thought it would be nice to have some company.

So the text conversation went like this;

"Would you like to come over for lunch on Sunday?"

"Maybe".

Is this not bloody rude? AIBU to be a bit bloody miffed?!

If ever I ask him out for lunch/dinner/day out/etc, he is always busy but he always expects me to drop my plans whenever he wants to go out.

Some people just don't realise that friendship is a two-way thing, I guess.

Thanks everyone.

I had a chat with him and he was mortified that I was upset. He can see how his reply was rude and he'll make sure that it doesn't happen again, with anyone.

And he's taking me out for lunch on Sunday 😃

So where did he take you today

He took me for a lovely roast in a pub. It was beautiful.

Then was invited for an impromptu dinner at another friends house, so it ended up being a lovely day.

Thanks for asking! Hope you had a lovely day!

Thats great that you managed to have a chat with him! Sounds like you made a big step in communicating things which is sometimes such a relief, isnt it. How did you approach it?
