If anything she could use a few more friends. She is pretty shy. My daughter chose the people who sit with her at lunch. The table is by no means exclusive. There are plenty of seats and they have asked others to join but they have declined. The girl in question is way more popular “cool” than my daughter and sits at a “cool” table.

I told the mom that if it had been a birthday at a venue then of course her daughter would be invited. But I have a small house and this was a sleepover. Again, I was shocked the daughter even cared.


Good lord it was one extra. I wouldn’t
have said anything and welcomed her. So mean.


Agree. Kind of a Bi---, Op. Just b/c you CAN do something, doesn't mean you should. You have no reason why the mom called you. You inferred the worst. But then you stepped past that and acted even worse.

WTF?

OP, you have nothing to be guilty about. Do you really think this popular girl would've invited your DD or the mom would've let your DD come if she wasn't invited? Please. Maybe the mom/daughter couldn't imagine not being invited, so they made the assumption that she was. If I were that mom, I'd be highly embarrassed for calling and asking about being invited.

You're fine, OP. Don't feel guilty.


You have ABSOLUTELY zero knowledge as to why this mom asked. None. OP was a bi---, 100% and should have shown some grace. And you're just as bad as she is.

The other mom and her DD might have been genuinely led by some other kid to believe she missed an invite that was sent out. Invites do get lost sometimes. If I were the other mom, I would have felt mortified. You are not obligated to extend an invitation when she asked, but don't be so hard on her, OP.
