[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are the excluded one, you aren't as close as you think

You’re right. When I say close, I just mean she was initiating getting together several times a week with me and we talked often. So in my mind we were close but you’re right. Close friends don’t exclude each other in a situation similar to what happened. 1 out of a large group not invited. I’m also seeing now that we were never really friends. I was more of an acquaintance she kept around to get to know others. I’m a little more outgoing and had other friends she was interested in getting to know. [/quote]

Yeah, just get what you can out of the situation in terms of maybe having fun sometimes with the people if you don't have a better option that day, but don't count on them or go out of your way for them either

I know people that sometimes disappoint me, sometimes come by and hang out with the group. We can have some laughs together but I won't expect anything from them or consider them close friends[/quote]

Well the problem isn’t the group. It’s her. I don’t understand people like that but it’s your typical type A wants to be the leader of everything type of person. I think I just need to ignore and do what I want to do and not let her influence me. I made some plans with friends in the group who I have been friends with for years. I’ll be polite to her but there’s no point putting any effort into a fake friendship. [/quote]

Just to be clear - did someone else invite you after you were excluded? Or they all did the plan without you? If the latter, I'd be more worried [/quote]
