To think it’s not my responsibility to chase?

We have a works WhatsApp for the women in our team. This year I’ve organised four things, my understanding is if I put who would like to do X on this date and someone doesn’t respond then that’s a no.

The last two things I’ve organised one woman hasn’t responded to them. I’ve now heard that she’s complaining she’s never invited to things.

She’s definitely in the group, I can see the blue tick where she’s read the message, it’s her current number and she’s also put messages in that group.

Aibu to think the invite itself is enough and I shouldn’t have to chase up individually. I also send a “confirming text” in the group 5-7 days before too,

Go and have a word with her. It’s not worth letting it fester and allowing her to complain. Just a breezy, “I heard you were annoyed that you haven’t been invited to things. Just to clear that up, all information and invites are posted in the group chat which you’re a member of. I don’t go round everyone individually as that is too time consuming. Just in case you haven’t been seeing the invites, I wanted to let you know. You can respond in the group chat if you want to come when the next invite goes out.”

Then just walk away.

I feel your pain OP, it’s infuriating when people do that. I’ve got a FB message group with a similar person in it and it has taken all the fun out of arranging meet-ups
