Frustrating Day

Some friends and I had made vague plans to drive 3hrs to Kuala Lumpur and watch the Planetshakers (Australian christian band) in concert. I'd never been for their concerts before but they are really famous around here. I'd already booked a spot in my friend W's car a few weeks ago. The concert was this evening. Yesterday evening I texted W and he said his car was full (including me) but his friend in KL needed a ride and he didn't know how to fit everyone in. So I told him if there really isn't enough space I'd give up my seat and not go.

Then this morning another friend Y texts me and asks if I'm going because another guy D isn't going. If D and I don't go it would be just Y, W and W's gf and in that case Y wouldn't want to go either and feel like a third wheel. So I told Y, I'm going.

A bit later W texts me and apologises saying there isn't enough space now with his extra friend in KL going, that he's very sorry etc. I reply that I thought D isn't going (therefore there should be place for me). He replies that D is going and that they dragged him along.

So I text Y and tell him I'm not going. He replies 'Noooooo, now I'm stuck with D who isn't even interested in going'.


OK! Right now I'm like WTH?? He's not interested but you guys dragged him along and I can't go eventhough I am interested?! They were already in the car and on the way so I texted back and forth with Y (W was driving so I didn't bother with him) telling him how upset I was. I was utterly p*ssed :brickwall: I actually started crying which surprised even me, I chalk it up to PMS though. Y's responses were mostly apologies but in the end I think he got a bit fed up and told me to just try to forget about it.

I put on some really angsty DC Talk and went to sleep for an hour to calm myself down. I don't know what was going on over on their end but I attribute it to immaturity and bad planning.

Then I woke up and went and had a nice dinner with my housemate and came back and put on some worship music and sang and felt a lot better. But later I was on IM with a friend in KL and he said he just came back from the Planetshakers concert and it was awesome. That made me feel blue all over again :(

I'm thinking I should text Y and W tomorrow and apologise for my little outburst. I will be seeing them at church on Sunday and I don't want there to be any hard feelings between us. Especially since I'll be leading worship this Sunday, I don't want any unforgiveness hanging over my head. They are still my friends after all.

I'm sorry everyone, for writing this book. I just don't want to rant to anyone here so what better place to go to than my Family. Love you guys :pheart:

I am so sorry that you didn't get to go, that is so sad (((Hugs)))).

Thanks Georgy for the hug! :wub:
I sure need to get to bed now. It's late but I'm still stuck here reading and posting :rolleyes:

:pheart: Communication can be a pain.

You're right! I live and learn :wacko:

(((LF)))

Sorry you didn't get to go to the concert LF. :flowers:

Thanks for the hug KK :)

I talked with Y today. Turns out there was a total lack of communication between everyone. He didn't know W had an extra friend going so he dragged D along thinking to fill up the car. And I didn't know all that so I had a good time chewing him out. Groan... :wacko: Oh well, our friendship will survive <_<
