Things I don't understand

A few weeks ago, my friend had invited me to go see TS1 & 2 with the kids this past weekend. It was my husband's 20-year HS reunion weekend (I have to write a post about that). So I told her I couldn't come and asked if we could go next weekend. So we set the date.

She just posted something on a social networking website forum (that we're both part of) that she was proud of her daughter, who did not complain about the 3-D glasses during the 2 movies. Uh, weren't we supposed to go together? And, uh, if she were going to see it this weekend, wouldn't it be nice to drop me a line and say "hey, we decided to go by ourselves" instead of announcing it publicly?

If I knew she was so eager to go and didn't want to wait, I would have taken my son on Friday night (her daughter is younger and goes to sleep earlier). The reason I didn't do it was because I had scheduled it with her in the first place.

I know it's stupid and I shouldn't make a fuss about it, but it's Monday, and I'm not in a good mood.

Humm, I've had friends doing that to me as well and I think that's when you stop and question how much "friends" they really are. Fe Franca wrote a post about it last night I thought was right on the money about it.
Sometimes we waste energy and our hearts going out to people who really don't do the same for us and for what? :(
It is sad but is a reality I am learning in life and learning to forgive and move on, but just not as giving as much attention on these people as I would before :) Hope you feel better today!

Stuff like that bugs me too. I'd rather people just be upfront about things, rather than go to that extreme. Big hugs.
