AITA For being upset that I didn’t get an invite?
Two years ago I took my two closest friends to their first anime convention. I have loved these conventions for years but didn’t get to go for a while due to work travels. I expressed how much it meant to me to bring them into this. We had a great time and made plans to go back together. The next year had multiple complications for everyone. I couldn’t foot the bill for us all to go so I skipped out too and waited till this year so we could all go together as we planned.
This year was no better for everyone. Especially financially. So I didn’t think we would be able to go again this year either. Then I see a post on Facebook where my two “friends” are at the convention without me…
I was very hurt. I messaged the one I’m closest too and said “Why didn’t you just tell me we aren’t friends anymore? I don’t know what I’ve done to not be considered for something you both knew means the world to me and that we had said we would go back together for.”
The response I got was first to be told that allegedly i was told, twice, about one of them having tickets. No one but she remembers these conversations. The second part of her response was to say how she has had so much hardship going on that I should have just been happy for her that she got to have some kindness and that if I couldn’t just be happy for her that I’m not a friend she needs…
Yes, she has had a lot of awful things going on… Does that mean my feelings don’t matter? We all went to everything together when I was paying… I think I may have been used and forgotten but maybe I’m just an asshole?
