[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a similar thing and it was awkward as hell with people asking why I wasn’t there.  I don’t know why I wasn’t invited (it was a very big party), but assumed she had a reason and it was a clear sign that I should reevaluate.  I pulled back after that.  We are still friendly, but not close friends anymore.[/quote]

Had an almost identical situation happen.  It was so awkward—I was included in some group chats afterwards in which the gathering was mentioned.  I’m sure the friend who hadn’t invited me must have realized this but never bothered to reach out with an excuse as to why she hadn’t included me.  We are just barely friendly now, a few years later.  Recently I ran into her and she mentioned that she and some of my other lost friends had been out together and were wondering how I was.  I mean…how do people not realize how much it hurts to be excluded?[/quote]

She knows it hurts to be excluded and she enjoys the power. When my dh and I bought a house in the suburbs and had kids I was stunned by how petty some of the women were. Adults absolutely did things to hurt other adults and even children without batting an eye. [/quote]
