Friend went on trip without me

My friend and I live at opposite ends of the country, we hardly get to see each other. But she mentioned a trip she was going on and it would mean travelling through my town. I've never been to the area she was going to and I said I'd always wanted to go. She suggested we meet up there and she would let me know if it was going ahead. I told my daughter about it and we were both excited, to see my friend and travel to that area. Nothing got mentioned about it and I assumed it was either off or postponed, as no firm date was set. I was on facebook and saw photos she had posted of her on the trip. I commented, but no reply. I'm so disappointed. Do you think this means she either forgot about the idea or she changed her mind about meeting us? So confused and sad.

You'll have to flat out ask I'm afraid

It’s a bit rubbish but who knows why she didn’t contact you. Some people get overwhelmed making travel plans with others and just prefer going themselves,

Could you go with your daughter?

Could she have not wanted to go with your daughter? Having a child with you can change the dynamic.

She'll have forgotten and then when you liked the pictures she'll have remembered and cringed to death.
Expect some half ass excuse due to people not wanting to appear rude or to have made a mistake.
Don't sweat it, whatever the reason she didn't contact you, it's not worth falling out over.
