FRIEND ADVICE

Bit lengthy but.... About 4-5 yrs ago I got friendly with DC friend's mum. (Friend A ) Turns out DH, DC and me all got along brillliantly and she suggested lots of outings holidays etc. She also introduced me to her good friend (Friend B) who doesnt go out (money issues) as much and we all started hanging around. I became good friends with both but closer to A and wouldn't want to step on toes by seeing B without A. Then about 2 or so years go A introduced Friend C to the group they started to go out , outings etc. our family kind of excluded. Anyway friendships change so despite feeling excluded as we no longer meet up without C but A&C meet up often. I carried on as normal. So to cut a long story short I had a falling out with A. I have tried to reach out to no avail. In fact last text was asking to meet up to clear the air as we have mutual friends and DH and DC are good friends this was met with 'I dont have time.'

But here is where I need the advice. Friend B still invites me in group text of us 4 to our regular night. Friend A blanks me on this group text. Friend B&C esp C are friendlier with A than me. So what do I do go when sometimes there is only A&B or do I just leave it. Friend C I think is pretty happy wth my fall out TBH. So basically I only hear from friend B not A or C.

If anyone understood that at all what shall i do going forward.??

People are so weird why on earth do they do these power plays as adults. Because I joined the group and didn't set out to be no 1 friend and made sure B knew that we are now proper friends. C on other hand took any opportunity to bond over A displeasure of me and changed the dynamic . Why can't people just play nice ! I didn't mind a 4th person the more the merrier.
