Hi everyone. I want to know how you would feel in this situation.

My two friends are sleeping over at my house tonight and we were watching a movie in my sister's room. I told them i had to urinate and they said "okay" so i got up to go to the bathroom which is in the hallway. however, I wasn't feeling well and i was there for 30 minutes. they did not text me or look for me or call my name. i started feeling better, but i was still pissed that they did not ask me if i was ok. so i honestly made it into a game (they did not know this obviously) and went downstairs and stayed down there for another 2 hours. They still did not call my name, text me, or look for me. i was very hurt because they have been my good friends since we were 10 years old (we are now 19).

i know its my house and they probably did not think anything bad happened to me, but you still never know. I could have been tied up in a closet or kidnapped and they would never know. Now i feel that I can't trust them in general. And the movie was over and they still did not look for me. Also, they could have easily paused the movie anyway.

i eventually came upstairs and went into my sister's room to get my phone charger. they asked me where i was and if i am ok and i just said i'm fine and walked away trying to hold back tears. i am sleeping in my room and they are sleeping in the guest room (that's how we always do it anyway though).

how do i confront them about this?

I'm sorry if this isn't what you want to hear, but I don't think your friends have done anything wrong. They didn't realise you wanted them to look for you. When you came back, they asked if you were okay.

I think you maybe need to just move past this. Sorry if it's not what you wanted to hear.
Thanks for this!

I think I know what you mean. Twenty minutes isn't very long tho, honey. Don't be mad at them for the twenty minutes, but for the 2 hours? Yeah, I'd be pissed. For all they know you could have PASSED OUT in the bathroom from being sick. You could have fainted in there and hit your head on the tub or sink for all they know. They should have looked to see if you were okay long before 2 hours passed! If one of MY friends had been gone for 20-30 minutes, *I* sure would have checked up on them, but that's just me.

As far as making an issue out of it? No -- I don't think I would, hon. Friends are very hard to come by, and you've known them for almost 10 years. I know this hurts you, but I really don't think I'd confront them about it. Where are you going to find friends like them now? You're NOT.

Let this go sweetie. You were probably brought up differently than they were. Perhaps you were brought up to be more compassionate to others, and show more caring. But don't ruin a GOOD friendship over this, okay? I KNOW you'll regret it if you do. Forgive them, and let it go.

I wish you the very best, my friend. God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee

No offense but you are being dramatic. They more than likely didnt mean any harm. Calm down and continue to enjoy the relationship you have with your good friends.
Thanks for this!

Flush the Phone down the toilet, and ask your friends if they were worried about you.
