We have been friends for over a year now and our children get on really well. I've seen her lying to other people before, really silly things like telling people she has a GP appointment when she doesn't want to meet up, this kind of thing. I was expecting to be lied to as well and have the feeling this has been happening but couldn't quite prove it until last week when I came back from my holidays and suggested a quickly catch up at the end of afternoon at the playground close to hers. She replied few hours after saying that her child would be until late night in other's friend's house. Than another friend calls me later and says that she has been to the park and saw few friends there and mentioned lier's dad with lier's child and the other friend she was supposed to be having a play date with. So I felt liar made unnecessary excuses to me as clearly her husband went to pick up her child and her child wouldn't stay at friends house until evening I think. Than yesterday she sent me a link asking my opinion about something she wanted to buy in Argos. Today I invited her for a day out with us and she said she couldn't because she needed to go to an Argos shop (1,5 hours away by bus) to buy her thing there, they didn't have it anywhere else. So I checked the website again and yes they do have it in our 2 nearest Argos specially in the one close to where I invited her to go to...and isn't a coincidence that she has a friend who lives exactly where she is going today?? Honestly I really don't mind to be turned down I understand people are busy I don't think she is keeping me away because we already arranges to meet on Wed after school. But her behaviour puts me off tbh, I think it is childish and I feel I can't trust. Sorry it is long. Anyone with an opinion or similar experience?
