First of all, I hope that you all had a nice Thanksgiving. Mine sucked since I missed it due to being extremely depressed and upset over what a so called friend did to me not to long ago. Her and I have known each other for about three years. She was always a nice, reliable, and easy going person. We never had any fights and we'd get along well with each other.
Well, the problem started when I asked her if she could take care of my two cats for less than a week. She has done this before twice when my husband and I took a vacation. This time it was just me who was going to visit my family while my husband was away on a trip. She said sure, she'll do it. We paid her well upfront to do so too. She lives in the same town, about five minutes away, and all she had to do was come over, feed them, and give them clean water everyday.
So after I left two v.m messages on her cell phone, she never called back. She responded to all my emails regarding this aside from my last one. Then she NEVER got back to me at all! I was upset of course! She promised to do this! If she couldn't, then she should've at least called or emailed me, but she didn't! How rude! So I had to shorten my trip and leave out food and water for them.
If that wasn't bad enough, my neighbor came over to tell me that some teeenagers broke into her garage as retaliation for complaining about them. They also stole some CD's from her car when she forgot to lock it. This was especially scary since my husband is still on his trip. He'll be back tomorrow. I did hear someone in the backyard very late at night when I was in the bathroom the night before.
I told my friend about this in my matter of fact but panicky voice. So it's possible that she got to scared to come over. Still, she should've said something! Also, over the last year, since she got a b.f who now lives with her, she has been a lot more distant. She hasn't bothered intiating plans with me for a long time, but she'd usually respond to my invites to the movies and dinner. I used to see her once a week, then once every month.
I could tolerate that and the endless lies about how her phone battery was dead or off almost every time I tried to call her. Sometimes she wouldn't even return my calls for days if at all! Anyways, she never got back to me. It's possible that something happened to her, but I doubt that.
To make a long story short now regarding Thanksgiving, I drove a long way to my family's place, but I missed Thanksgiving due to drinking a bit to much due to being super stressed out and anxious. My parents went to my sisters place and I blew making a good first impression with her b.f who I never met before. I feel so stupid and awful about this. My mom and my bff told me that she probably chose to take the cowards way out by not responding back to me. Why would she do this to me and not even call me back?
Needless to say, I'm done with her! I told her in my last v.m that there is no excuse for this unless she had some emergency and that I'm done with her. It does sound like she was doing the slow fade and giving me hints for awhile now and this was her very obvious way of saying, I no longer want to be your friend anymore.
I was always nice to her and we never had any fight, so this doesn't make any sense at all to me! She did say that she was going to be gone for a certain time period, but then she said that she could still watch the cats during a certain time. So I don't get this at all!
How could a so called friend betray me in this way? This is beyond rude and hurtful!
