So you see, Jesyka, you have company in what you are experiencing. Hvert and I know the bewilderment and pain of disappointed expectations. As hvert says, you have choices in how to handle it, and there is no one right, or best, choice. You could flip a coin to decide - confront or withdraw. I agree with her that an argument can be made for either. In my case, pride usually stops me from complaining to anyone. I don't want to beg for anyone's company. Probably it's best to be forthright in an assertive way - a middle approach. No hostility or whining. Just holding others to an account. If you can do that gracefully, it may be the way to go.
