If I were her I'd be annoyed that you coordinated to buy tickets to something together and then you didn't actually prioritize it and her. She has a right to be irritated - you should have better managed your schedule.

Unfortunately, that wasn't possible, given that an unexpected requirement arose at work that no one else could cover. I explained that, apologized to her, and also explained that I would make sure to end by no later than 5pm.  [/quote]

Which is understandable, but her deciding to proceed as originally planned is also understandable.

If she was having a tantrum, that wouldn't be reasonable, but taking an uber so she can still arrive at the time she planned to arrive at is totally reasonable.  [/quote]

It's not understandable to want to go to a social event where you don't know anyone and walk to stations eating and drinking alone.  That would be so weird.[/quote]

OP hasn't said that her mom doesn't know anyone.  But many people who don't have social anxiety would be fine with coming separately to an event like this, even if it means that they're alone for the first few minutes.  Judging OP's mom as "so weird" for doing that is very odd.

If OP and her mom were coming from different directions and meeting at the event would you consider that weird too? [/quote]

You don't like my judgment so you're judging me? Classic.[/quote]
