Iv had the same 3 friends for years. We rarely meet up and when we do its a nightmare to organise. Recently i asked could we meet up they all agreed. So roll on the day and one friend says she is going to a hotel with her boyfriend. Ok fair enough but then she posts on sm she is at her other friends house. The other two have said they forgot about the night. Am i better to call them out or just ignore? Wwud

How horrible!

Maybe act all innocent and respond that you didn’t realise we were now meeting at friends house. Alternatively, say how hurt you are are at being lied to, and ditch them!

Im quite laid back usually and take stuff on the chin but your right im going to text her now and say something like did you have a good time?

'Hey girls, was really looking forward to seeing you, saw you had other plans that night which upset me a little.'

Time to put these 'false friends' in the past. Find the sort of people that enrich your life and bring something to it...these didn't

Bin them. They won't care that you're upset. So don't upset yourself further by telling them that they hurt you. Just don't bother messaging them again, delete yourself from group chat if there is one.

Move on, they are not friends.

Don't waste time telling them you are upset, just move on.

I'd delete their numbers and move on. I wouldn't bother confronting them when they didn't have the respect to be honest and presumably knew you'd see their lie on SM.

I wouldn't say anything about it but I'm damn sure change my behaviour. I think it's nice to keep friendships going for years so I wouldn't cut them off, but I'd stop basing my social life around a group from the past, and I'd turn to the future for better quality fun.

Just block them and move on
They knew you'd see what they were actually doing and they didn't give a shit
That's a very clear message to you that you aren't important to them

Zig27 · 18/07/2021 11:11

It's probably time to move on and make new friends. I don't delete people as the friendships naturally fade.

Slothmomma · 18/07/2021 11:34

I agree with pp who said they've sent a clear message you aren't important to them as they knew you'd see. I've had similar this week after 2 years of shity behaviour by them so feel its time to let things drift

@Freddofrog12

Did they respond?

Freddofrog12 · 18/07/2021 22:32

Yes sadly they did and they are now blocked and i will not waste another thought on them. Its so sad the excuse was i forgot. Utter Bs. I was really upset but its defo time to move on. Thanks all for the advice
