Mom Confessions
My friend just really hurt my feelings.
She had asked yesterday if we wanted to go to the aquarium with her and her family. I told her I would talk to dh and let her know.
Well we just got a puppy last month so she can't be left for more than a few hours. When we are going to be gone longer than that I have my mom (who lives right down the street) take her out for us.
Well my moms not around this weekend and the aquarium is over an hour away. I told my gf we couldn't go this weekend but maybe next weekend. She got SO mad!
She started going off, "why did you get that stupid fucking dog in the first place." "We are going this weekend, I'm not going to change my plans because you decided to get a dog" "I really wanted you guys to come with us but oh the joys of having a dog, now you guys can't do anything!!!"
Um...seriously?! I can't understand someone getting so upset about something like that. And not only that, but I freaking love my dog. We got her knowing that until she is older our social lives would be some what limited.
Bitch needs to lighten up, part of me doesn't even want to talk to her anymore!

Immature. She's probably on her rag. At least I hope she is...

Yeah, serious over-reaction. Tell her the dog is better company and less of a bitch than her... -

Is it possible something else is bothering her and she's just lashing out because it was easier to attack you and the dog than face her issue? Have you canceled a lot of plans on her recently?
Try inviting her out at a time when you know the dog will be taken care of.
I don't think this one blow up is worth losing the friendship over. I think she needs time to cool down, and then an understanding friend to ask what is really going on, kwim?
