[quote=Anonymous]What else can the OP do? She already said she invites the friend to any event she organizes and also tells her about large group outings, which the woman declines??? Is she also supposed to immediately report to her every smaller gathering and ask: Can XX come, too? each time for fear that the friend will then get mad? Maybe this woman just doesn't gel with the group. That happens with adults. Not every social group is a fit. Unless they are being outwardly mean, rude, and making a point of excluding this ONE woman, it's just a natural part of how organic friendships unfold. If the "outside" friend wants an in and to take control of her own social life, she should host these people herself or else reach out directly to the hosts of the events she's upset about, not target one mom in the group as her "in" -- perhaps sensing that woman is especially kind and inclusive.
