"Really hurt"

I was just talking to my best friend and she's going to Zimbabwe for a couple of weeks next month. She was told she can bring a friend and she's chosen to bring a friend from college she's known 6 months. I thought she was going to ask me when she rang, we've been best friends for 16 years!

To make matters worse she said the reason they chose the two weeks they're going is because nothing important is happening then. In other words, she's completely forgotten my 21st birthday is during the second week she's away! We were supposed to be organising a party together and she's completely forgotten.

I didn't remind her when she rang. It didn't feel right. But I'm really hurt by the fact that she didn't invite me or remember my birthday's coming up.

Am I being unreasonable thinking this?

I wish, she's just plain forgotten about my birthday. She's not the type for throwing surprise parties or anything like that so I'll just have to accept it'll just be me and Match of the Day on the 27th Sep.

Break here fingers, so she won't be able to pick stuff up.

I tried that once.

Had a massive plan and everything...

In the end it all blew up in my face.

(/crappy gag)

It's part of the surprise.

They are going there so you think they have forgotton, but actually they're coming back early and bringing the rest of their family back too, and smuggling illegal grade A party poppers.

Maybe she suffers from long term memory loss and thinks she's only known you for 6 months?

Maybe she doesn't lik you?

maybe she wants sex with this other dude(tte)?

All possibilities.

But I think you should do nothing, and possibly go out and have sex with a basketball player...

She's definitely going, her sister was telling me on Thursday they were seriously considering it. They have family there.

> You fancy her, don't you?

And don't tell her, i'm going with the surprise party route...

Short answer: no


You should ring her and tell her what you've just said here.



Oh, although there is a possibility she is planning a huge surprise party for you.

You fancy her, don't you?
