You're probably right about what you said. You verbalized my feelings very well. I'm sorry that I ever introduced them to each other. They started treating me differently after they met each other. I feel like they only tolerate me now most of the time because of the other women in the group. Maybe this one woman in the group made plans with the other women or vice versa and left me out on purpose. Who knows?
One of the women who didn't respond to me the second time seems to like the other two women in the group more than she likes me. She tends to barely acknowledge me in the group. I've only been invited out to hang out with her one on one on my birthday last year.
When I try to make plans to hang out one on one, they all ask if so and so from the group can come too. Ugh! I guess that they are using me for a connection to the other women in the group. It feels like they're just tolerating me at times since they think the other women like me enough to want to hang out with me too.
The nicest lady in the group moved away. Things seemed to be better before she moved away. I was told to not say anything at all and to just wait to see what happens.
Should I say anything to these women or not? I was thinking of saying, is everything OK? I thought that you were going to get back to me, did you forget to text me back? And this also, can you please give me a yes or no answer in a day or so next time. If you say no, that's fine. That way I can invite another friend out instead of having to wait for a long time for a reply.
How does that sound? Good or could it use improvement? Also, when people don't respond to invites, is that an indirect no? I heard that some people don't like saying no directly.
I do have a few good friends. My best friend told me these women are not my friends either and that actions speak louder than words. She used to have crappy friends like this too who she's no longer friends with. She thinks I'm not needy either which is good.
