Need to vent for a minute. I have a best friend of about 18 years. We have kids all 1 year apart in age. She works full time and so does her dh. He works overnights. He’s home with the kids on Monday and Tuesday’s. Well Monday’s we usually hang out. So I texted him today saying if he didn’t have plans he could hang out here at my house. He texted back saying that my friend Danielle is off and they are heading to the zoo. I didn’t even get an invite. Now I know they don’t get much time to spend together as a family but like for real?!? I would have invited them if I was going somewhere. Which I always invite, at least him and the kids, whenever we make plans for a Monday. Now am I just being super sensitive or do I have a right to be a little upset that I wasnt invited. I mean they know I’m home and my oldest is off from school!!
I feel like you’re being sensitive but it would have been nice if they would have told you ahead of time.
Wait what?!? I never said u sounded jealous. U said I sounded jealous. And the r word isn’t acceptable now a days but u prolly don’t know that hahahaha
@rybugg413, i don’t understand who said she was jealous?
They want to spend time as a family. Her mom included. An invite would have been nice, yes. Even a heads up yesterday, “hey we’re having a family day tomorrow, can’t hang out” would have been better. You say they never invite you places when they’re off? Sounds like you’re making all of the effort in this relationship. Also, this is not to be rude but they aren’t solely responsible for keeping you company when they’re off. They have lives, too. So yes, I think you’re taking this too personally. And you know I like you a lot, so my bluntness isn’t meant to offend you, just telling you how I see it. 🙃
I can see what you’re saying. I get that they want to spend time as a family but again when she’s off they never include me in any plans. I have never said or thought it was their responsibility to keep me company it just would have been nice if they invited me knowing I was home without my dh and with the boys ya know? I know you’re not being rude and I’m def overly sensitive, I’m a cancer I can’t do anything about that hahaha,.
Don't take it hard. I like other people around sometimes but I like my family time. Maybe he just wanted it to just be them. If he doesn't invite you anywhere maybe it's time to move on from the friendship. I don't have friends because I put out the effort and they didn't. Take your boys go do something together and just don't worry about nobody else.
@householdceo, thanks girl! Yes we are going to enjoy this beautiful day!
@ss3mom awesome I'll be bored lol it's a cleaning day. So cleaning is all I'll be doing besides catching up on some shows.
@householdceo, I cleaned some yesterday before guests came then I cleaned up last night after everyone left haha
I totally understand that they wanted to do something as a family, I get that, but whenever my friend is off they plan stuff and never ever ask me to go. They know my dh is working and I’m home with the boys by myself. A pity invite would have been appreciated ya know? They know I have literally no plans. They are also going with her mom so maybe that’s why I wasn’t invited too? Idk they just also leave me out when they know I’m home without my dh on these holidays
Maybe that's it. It's because your husband would not be joining in they've changed their minds on including you all together. I mean I absolutely think they should've given you a heads up out of consideration but maybe just maybe they're thinking of you and being the whole third wheel thing..so simply making it strictly a family function was what came to mind. They more than likely didn't mean any harm by it but sometimes ppl just don't feel like hanging out.
Yeah sounds like they just needed some alone time since like you said they don’t get much time together as a family. Him working overnights has got to be tough on them.
I see what you mean, it would have been nice to extend the invite if you usually see them on a Monday, but yeah they probably just wanted to do something together on their own. My husband and I are like that 🙈
They need family time. I don’t blame them for wanting to have just them. It’s so important to do things just as a family especially if you don’t get much time all together.
I feel like you’re being sensitive but it would have been nice if they would have told you ahead of time.
Honestly I can see why you’re upset but at the same time they probably barely see each other and just wanted a family day together since it’s probably been a while
@rybugg413, like totally off the site? It’s weird she won’t answer any of my follow up questions haha
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
