Sitting here crying

mkoelker · July 2010

b/c I'm really fvcking tired of my friends ditching me or never inviting me anywhere. The only time they want to do anything with me is when my DH isn't working. When they find out he is working, they don't bother calling me. What really pushed me over the edge is that we were supposed to have a 4th of July party tonight. After I went out this morning and spent almost $100 on fireworks, they text me and tell me they aren't coming.

I realize I may sound like a big fat baby, but it really really upsets me.

I hate flakey people like that. One of my oldest friends is that way and I barely see her now. I got so tired of driving an hour back home for her to cancel plans and end up spending a Friday night with my parents. Sometimes friendships just drift apart and we have to move on. Besides - we'll be pretty busy really soon so maybe we won't have time for them.

I just noticed you're in Illinois too - what part are you in? I'm in west central - near Galesburg.

That's frickin ridiculous. I'm so sorry, sweetie.

Since it seems like you're in my area, if you ever want to do something, let me know. I'll PM you my info.

I have friends (specifically an old BFF) that is back in town from grad school, but will continually ditch me. I am only good enough when no one else is available for her. I don't know what changed, but since I work longer hours, no one wanted to "wait on me" etc, and she just stopped inviting me. Other times, she would just ditch me at the last minute if her other friends wanted to change their plans. And now . . . well, I can't drink or do anything "fun". I've stopped wondering why she does this, and I take what time I can with her, and never count on her for anything anymore.
