To think if there’s a problem then just say that?!

[lasstchristmas]

I went on a weekend away with a friend mid December and for some reason there was suddenly an awful atmosphere, like she was a teenager in a sulk. Anything I suggested was met with a shrug, meals were me working overboard with conversation.

I didn’t say anything at the time as I thought she’d snap out of it and I didn’t want to add to the atmosphere.

I can genuinely not think of anything I did wrong. I’m not saying there wasn’t anything, but nothing I can pinpoint.

Since being back she’s been distant and I’ve asked then but she said “nothing was wrong, I had a good time”

Aibu to just let the friendship slide? It was just two days away and she made it so horrible.

Why didn’t YOU say something…?

Why didn’t you read the OP?

Anything could have caused it
personal stress/menstrual cycle

In view of the fact you have asked her about it, and she hasn't told you there was a problem, then I think in your shoes I would let the relationship fade OP. She's clearly not good at communicating, and while perhaps it would have been wise to ask her what was up as soon as you sensed the atmosphere, I can understand why you didn't.

You could have asked at the time or since.

This is why it is sooo dangerous to holiday with a friend

You did do something, but don't know what

I got this when friend got offended that i didn't finish my meals

Oh my life the OP DID ask when they got back

Anyways….OP if they can’t be decent enough to say then I’d let it fade. You can’t address an issue, if it was even relevant to yourself, if you don’t know what it is.

Oh I couldn't be bothered with a friend who did that - if you'd said or done something that upset her, she should have said so. Sulking and being uncommunicative is just passive aggressive 😒

Is this the first time she’s done that? Have you known her a long time?
i used to have a friend who was prone to this behaviour. I was friends with her for 20 years. Why the fuck I put up with it for so long I don’t know. It was utterly bizarre. I’d have days of her being perfectly normal. Excitable and chatty. Then we’d wake up one day and she’d be miserable as hell. Hardly talking. Shrugging at any suggestions I made. One word answers. I used to worry so much that I’d done something. Would try and overcompensate. Would do anything she wanted to do to make her happy. I’d push myself to come across really extra bubbly to try and cheer her up. Eventually I realised that she was just an annoying bitch her behaviour was nothing to do with me and I was done. I faded her out and it’s so relieving not to put up with that shit anymore.

I think most people go on holiday with friends very frequently.. on account of they are friends. This is not normal behaviour, but such weirdness occurs as often in families - at least it’s easier to get shot of friends.

Anyway OP, just leave her be and don’t think about it anymore - you don’t mention her being a terrific friend till now, so I would just let her go.
