[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not everyone has to be invited to everything. It’s ok to have separate groups of friends and do things wth that group w/o inviting friends from another part of your life. These responses are bizarre. [/quote]

I think most of us would agree that it is okay to have separate group of friends.  What I find objectionable is that OP wants to exclude someone who would like to participate.

OP doesn't even want to broach the subject with the other members of the book club.  Her reasoning is because they have been only that small group for soooooooo long.  That seems offensive to me and I don't even know OP or the people in the book club.  Like, sorry chick, I didn't even know about your preschool back when my kid was that young.  If I had, well, certainly I would have made sure that my kid went there so I could join the precious mommy book club lol.

It is funny.  I don't normally get upset about stuff like this but I feel really badly for this woman who wants to join and is being excluded just because she met OP 10 years later.  Sigh.[/quote]
