Feeling disappointed.

Me too, BlueBelle. Maybe we have different personalities though? I had a friend who used to bring her dog when we walked together and then expect the six of us to eat outside in the cold. It didn’t last, needless to say. There was absolutely no reason for her to bring the dog and we all had to wait whilst it sniffed at things, pooed and did what dogs di.

I would have joined the others and just had a drink or even nothing but it would have taken away the disappointment of the first couple
Wouldn’t bother in future, meet up with the second group and forget the first group

Why didn't you join them inside?

It is the company that counts, not the food

I think sometimes people are very thoughtless and rude I would say.

I'm sorry you were treated this way, kircubbin2000, maybe I'm feeling a little bit more sensitive to your predicament, as I am going through something similar at the moment.

But I would never treat a stranger let alone a friend in this fashion.

Hope you meet up with the other group of friends soon.

Got a very late message this morning that 2 friends were meeting for coffee at 10.00.I rushed my shower and arrived a few minutes late to find they had decided to sit outside in the cold wind as the dog was not allowed in. They proceeded to chat very quietly about a tragic death of someone I didn't know and also about their unreliable workmen.As we were leaving I realised neither of them had included me in the chat or asked me anything about myself.
To make things worse another group of my friends arrived and asked if I was coming inside to join them.As I had already eaten I thanked them and decided I would just go home.
