[quote=Anonymous]This happened to me. Let's call her Shelly. A rift had inexplicably begun to develop, but I knew I was done with her one Memorial Day weekend. Shelly had mentioned at one point that she and another friend were going on a beach trip. An acquaintance had rented a house and a bunch of people were going. I just assumed I was invited, but she never called me back to solidify plans. When she texted me, she said something about how busy she had been and she was already at the beach, and sorry! And then asked where my boyfriend was and suggested I call him to hang out instead. I found out later that the acquaintance who made the house arrangements had already invited too many people, and I was an extra she could not accommodate. Shelly did not know how to break this news to me, so she just ignored me. It was all so immature, I stopped talking to Shelly and other associated friend for about a year because it just seemed very disrespectful and I was hurt that no one was upfront with me. The other friend eventually apologized, and Shelly and I are fine now, but nowhere near the friends we were in college and a few years afterward, and I am honestly fine with it. Friendships should not be forced.[/quote]
