Re: left out NO DATE: I vote for return the favor
Re: left out alonewith2: This did happen to me during the 1st separation. My friends were all married or in a serious relationship. I stopped getting invited to cookouts, dinner parties, fun trips, etc. At first I didn't take offense to it. I thought they were just wanting to stay out of my stbx and I's situation. They were all upset with him, and maybe they didn't really know what to do with me.
I'm not sure what I would have done if they did invite me, then said it was cancelled only to find out I was just being left out. I know I would have felt worse than I did after not being invited at all. I can't believe they would do that to you. I could make up a lot of excuses on how a situation like that may occur, such as not enough room in the car, kids only event, etc....but the bottom line is they should have been honest with you.
Re: left out NO DATE: I vote for return the favor oh, I said that already carry on
Re: left out LostTeacher: when my girlfriend's daughter turned one, i was the only one of my friend's not invited to the party because i didn't have a kid. only friends with kids were invited.
it made me feel very left out. i mean, i always try to have a good time, i bring a present, and i've been friends with these people since i was 16.
i guess i just realized that there are just things that i don't do with them now. i just am not in that spot in my life anymore. i am jealous at time, because i want that life. i was the first to get married, and i was the first that wanted kids. now i am on the sidelines, waiting for a date, let alone the time to have a baby.
i think that sometimes we have to realize that we don't always fit into that life as well anymore. and that's ok. because you have to come to realize that your life is different, and it's something you have to face.
i wish, though, that i had the guts to let one of them know how their actions have made me feel. most of my friends are pretty good, but one just doesn't get how much she hurts my feelings, and i just haven't had the guts to let her know how it affects me.
