Oh dear, my bridesmaid was having an anne summers party last night and I text her to explain that I have no money and couldn't make it - she said fine its cancelled anyway and I was in some state last night because I felt so bad that I couldn't go and having no money doesn't help matters. Then this morning I text her to ask how she was and she sent a message asking who it was! She knew it was my number and then she started saying that I always let her down and that I am not a friend - she constantly let me down when it came to my pregnancy - promising to come to antinatal classes and not showing up or cancelling so that I didn't have enough time to make other arrangements to get there. She borrowed money off me and I haven't got a penny back and I am always there for her when she has a problem with the man she is having an affair with and I have never let her down before - going out with her so she can get a drink when I was 9 months pregnant and tired and unwell. Now she is just being hurtful and cruel - I told her I can't go out every weekend now because I have a baby and even if I wanted to I can't afford nights out every weekend. When I tried to organise us going out she always has "other plans" I'v been breaking my heart for the past three hours since she text to tell me I am a total bitc* and that my h2b is a waste of space and she hates us both how can she be so bloody mean? This girl was going to be my bridesmaid and I am so hurt. Am I being unreasonable or is it acceptable that I couldn't get the bus to see her because I was in hospital with an infection in my c-section wound and for the past 5 months was not allowed to lift my baby let alone go out on the lash. Ok rant over x

Some people are too self centred to be good friends. Don't waste your energy on her.

i agree she's no friend to act like that and not worth a moment of your time, she's probably just jelous, try not to let her get to you and just enjoy your family. x
so little time, so much to do!
CommentAuthorNetta
Agree with Dove and Goff, ignore her she sounds far too self centred hun. You have done far too much already and need to concentrate on yourself (and those dear to you), she really doesn't come across like a nice person.
like goff said move on chick you don't need that she will sn come running. xx
CommentAuthorFuture Mrs Henderson
I agree with Goff. People like her don't deserve even a second thout. She'll need you before you need her by the sounds of things. Forget her and when she comes running make her grovel xx
CommentAuthorRach (Mrs H)...
I agree, move on pet, she is what i would call a toxic friend....not a friend at all unless she wants something.....i had a friend like that when i was younger, everything always on her terms, her problems were always worse etc etc ( i could go on) i dont miss her, i just spend time with my real friends these days :O) x x
CommentAuthorRachie :D
For one thing she sounds like a right mare and tbh if it was me having this prob I know Rich would have rang her or gone round there to give her a piece of his mind.
Ignore it, at the end of the day she will need you before you need her, if the party was already cancelled then nice of her to tell you. Concentrate on you getting yourself back on your feet and being the mummy you are. She's missing out sweetie and not you - huge huge hugs xxxx

Nope you aren't being unreasonable she is. She obviously is struggling to deal with the fact that you now have responsibilies and problems a litte more urgent than going out getting drunk every weekend.
Ignore her, she'll apologise or she won't but if she's a real friend then she should be more understanding of the fact that you just can't do some things with her at the drop of a hat anymore.
Hope everything is okay with your baby and the infection has cleared up for good x

Being asked to be a bridesmaid is a huge honour! She doesnt deserve the title or the invitation! im sure you have other friends or family who would be delighted to do the duty. chin up hun its all about you.x

Ach I guess you are right but I am so hurt and angry at her I have to dance to her tune and I know if she text tomorrow I would go running and it drives me mad maybe I'll just cut my losses like you say and forget about it all x

Olli's mummy - you are hurt because you thought she was as much of a friend as you are to her. You need to tell her how you feel and see if you can patch things up (although I suspect she'll do it again to you) or move on without her.

CommentAuthorRachie :D
We had a huge problem with Rich's best friends (an engaged couple) in January - needless to say due to them being his oldest friends (mr x - 18 yrs and miss b - 7 yrs) I tried my best to make it right - i ran around trying to open communication and make thing right. The outcome is we 'spoken to them for 9 months and the other people we thought were are friends haven't bothered with us since although we have tried. Rich in the end didn't want anything to do with them especially her due to a few choice things she had said about his mum in her rants via email to him (she would not answer her front door or her phone and would only email) - for about 2 months he was so lost, he stopped drinking for 7 months (had one or two at family parties) - since August he's been so much better he's going out with our real friends more, he'll have a social drink and is so much happier for not jumping to her whistle all the time and our relationship is so much better. It hurts like hell tbh but there was no way after what she did by ruining his 30th birthday celebrations and then the venom that was spat at us afterwards I was going to let her do it to him again.
You have to do what is right for you and your family hunni and no one else - If you feel that you can take this and move on and be friends then thats up to you but put yourself and family first and not her and her feelings xxxx

I agree with Tinsel, you need to at least try to make it right with her although you've done nothing wrong. Believe me life's too short to be hasty and just cut your losses. If she is too self centred to buck up her ideas then yes she's not worth your time, but you need to at least try x

I dont think its right for us to be friends the last time we fell out she took my jacket and stuff I had left at hers and binned them all and then she does this. You are all right my two boys are the most important people in my life and I dont need the stress of walking on egg shells. I cant be the carefree girl I was before I am a mummy and will be a wife I work hard and I love waking up on a saturday and playing with my son without having a sore head and my bank balance doesnt need a hammering every weekend. Ok, tears dried and dusted - thanks girls you are all fab!!!!!!! xxxx

I wouldn't waste your time on her. She obviously doesn't think much of you if that's how she treats you. x
CommentAuthorMrsPrestleton2be
id move on hun. i have a friend who is like that. everything gotta be about her. she had her son 6 weeks before i had my son. and it seems to be a constant competition between her and me. i change my status or pic on fb so will she. and she deletes anything i write on her wall or pics. so i dont bother anymore. if im ill or my son is ill her or her son have it 10 times worse. she was my best mate for years, holidays together, lived together everything. now i cant stand her. i dont even thinki will be inviting her to my wedding. hope you get it sorted hun xx

CommentAuthorKerrylou
You really don't need people like that. My original MOH was exactly the same, when she wanted me I was her bestest friend and when she didn't I wasn't 'worth the effort' We live on the same street so we still speak occasionally but she's no longer a part of my life and I don't miss her at all. You're worth so much more than that and I really do hope you've moved on from her now. I'm sure you have enough real friends who will support you when you need it xxx

CommentAuthorGriff
You honestly don't need this cr*p hun she's not a friend she is the scum of the pond of life floating around occaisionally attaching to shiny happy fish (you and h2b) that eventually get fed up of the irritation and break free. Now is that time break free of the scum whilst it's her pushing off. You may not get another chance xxx
CommentAuthorangelan1986
Oh hun I have 1 of those too but she doesnt play a part in my life anymore. Yes sometimes I get annoyed because she was the only friend i had but h2b says to me she wasnt a real friend in the 1st place. She has a baby a few months older than mine and used to text me all the time asking me to go out, she soon got the hint that I wasnt interested in that anymore and only asks me if its a special occasion. A few weeks ago she text asking me to meet her for a coffee so I jumped straight in a taxi to meet her, sat for 10 minutes talking bout her mainly then went home thinking wtf did I just do that. Its only when you look back you realise. She was at her friends the other day as she updated her FB status, and this girl lives 2 minutes from me in a taxi. I have lived in my new house for 16 months and she has NEVER been to visit me. I would suggest you list her "pro's and con's" and see if she is worth your time, and when she texts look at your little boy and say to him "your more important" and play with him rather than running round after her. I know its hard but all the bad energy will soon wear off xxx (sorry thats really long pmsl)
Its bad enough when you have to tolerate nonsense like this from family members but you cant choose them, you can your friends so why would you choose to spend time and energy on someone who treats you so badly?
I would waste no more time on this person. xx

Had another bubble today about our fight. She had a right good bitch about me to my sister in law and it all got back to my mum - who happily informed me that she told me so - she never liked the girl said that there was something about her that wasn't right and she always lets me down. Maybe I will start listening to what I am told haha. Just don't tell my mum I said that hahahaha xxx
CommentAuthor4lannie4
shes not worth the tears or talking about if she can say such hurtful things and as for having her as a bridesmaid i certainly wouldnt if it were me hun as stated earlier in the thread its an honour to be asked and by the sounds of it she doesnt deserve the honour x

A good friendship should be effortless. I can ring one of my close friends at anytime and they are there for me as I am them. I may not speak for days or in some cases years, but the true ones always answer. She has wasted your good time and effort. Dont give her another thought :-)

No one needs people like that in their lives, move on :) If she cannot understand the reality of living with health problems and financial problems and that of course being your so called friend, then she's not worth the entitlement of being a friend, she clearly has no regards to your feelings hun. Self centred bitc*! *hugs* Xx
