I've been spacey since my fainting episode this ast Tuesday, so maybe I have a mild head injury. Ive been having trouble moving fat or staying on my feet for long periods of time.
I told this to her and profusley apologized for missing her text the night before last asking if I was coming last night to meet up with her and others for her birthday at this loal club.
I was super out of it after work the night before last.
I was sorta ok yesterday after work.
I had breakfast and lunch and my dinner and a pasta on the house courtesy of me having to train- I had plenty of food-
but then I go to a party at coworker friendds house
and text my friend this morning about it,
completely forgetting about her birthday and somehow missing her text about it reminding me the other day.
So now I feel like a bigger ***,
because not only did I forget,
but I was out somewhere else having fun on the same night of her birthday get together!

I said I was sorry and maybe we could meet up tonight and all that and she'sjust like, "no worries.'
She's ****ing pissed.
I know she is.

I just sent her an ecard after she stopped responding to my texts.
Maybe that was a mistake too.

Sorry you had a fall. Such things can be highly traumatic.

Your friend I am sure is disappointed, but if they are philosophical about it then accept that and don't beat yourself.

I am not always good at remembering engagements so calendars, phone alarms and notes are there for me.

I find a big pasta dinner makes me even more forgetful because all the carbs pump up my blood sugar levels. I stick to a moderate protein low carb diet.

Sending the ecard was a thoughtful thing to do. If you can afford it maybe an extra special birthday celebration would ease both your pain and hers.

Does your friend typically say no worries, then simmer and stew because things don't go their way?

Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks. I don't think she's the type to say she's fine when she's not, but then again I've only known her for a bit over 2 years and our schedules are so busy (and we both have to save money to live in this expensive *** city) so we don't get to hang out that often.- I think I might be overthinking things though . . .

Probably overthinking due to feeling guilty for not making it. I'm missing my friends upcoming 40th, I'll be out of town. I let her sister know to send my best wishes. A card will suffice. Known her since we were teens. Time and circumstances do factor.

I hope you're feeling ok after your fall - I fainted and had a concussion earlier this year. I was very spacey for a couple of months so I know where you are coming from.

I wouldn't worry anymore about forgetting her birthday. Maybe you all can meet up for a drink or lunch and you pick up the tab, if you want? I don't even think that's necessary but just an idea.

My best friend, she and I met several years ago. We forget each other's birthdays all the time. It's no big deal. We made it a point to not stress over it when one of us forgets lol

Yeah, I made that suggestion and she didn't take me up on it . . .. .

Sorry to read that she's not taking you up on your offer. Is she too busy, do your schedules conflict?

[AngstyLady]

well, I asked her if she got the e card because I got a notification via email that it still hadnt been read and she said she hadnt checked and then she did and excitedly thanked me. So yeah, I ****ing overeacted. Like usual. I'm such a ****ing idiot.
