Left Behind
Had plans to spend the weekend playing tour guide to some visitors from the UK but today it seems I was persona non gratis for some reason. Perhaps I wasn’t interesting enough yesterday, perhaps I missed out because I didn’t go to the mall this morning, perhaps they just suddenly didn’t have room for me but it would be kind of nice if I at least knew why (or perhaps who replaced me). I was asked several times if I wanted to go to the mall this morning and despite always saying yes I kept being asked if I was sure so I was beginning to get the impression they’d like some time without me as they’re a closer knit group so I took the morning off with the plans being they’d call me when they left the mall and we’d meet up then.
They left for the mall at 10am. At 6:45pm, nearly 9 hours later, I get a text message saying they’re going go karting and there isn’t room for me but they’d call me when they were done. Then at 9pm they come online, say they’re sorry but don’t answer any of my questions about what’s going on, had me send them a picture, and then abruptly log off.
Do I have a right to be angry about this? What do you think an appropriate response would be? What would you have done?
