Background story. I met another mum during a class outside of school. Our kids used to go to different schools but I recently moved my DS into the same school as her DS.
When they were going to different schools, she mentioned she is part of a hobby group that meets up monthly. I also have interest in this hobby. Said club is organised by the parents of the school (but has nothing to do with the school itself). When she mentioned this club I told her I would love to join but she politely said it is only for parents of that school, which I understood and dropped it.
Well now, for completely different reasons, our sons go to the same school and, you might guess where this is going, I figured I could now join the hobby club. She even mentioned this when I told her I was moving my son, so I thought she would just invite me straightaway, but didn't.
I waited few weeks and then asked her directly if she could give me the details to join as I would love to, she replied yes, but its been couple of weeks and hasn't actually done anything.
The only reason why I haven't contacted another mum to ask about said club is because I still don't know them very well and I am usually very shy. But now I cannot keep thinking about it. Why won't she just invite me or asked me to join in the first place when I clearly expressed interest in joining?
She does not run the club, she is not the one making the decisions who can join or not. We are friendly and I haven't done anything to upset her.
I know people can be forgetful but still... I feel like I cannot keep asking her to do something she has no interest in doing.
Not sure what I am looking for here, maybe to vent a little bit, but what would you do? I am thinking of texting another mum and getting myself invited but I know feel like I am this pushy person desperately trying to join a group!
Anyway suggestions are appreciated, be kind please.
