She definitely should have called you back. I'm not understanding the babysitting thing though - it sounds like you invited the child over for a social event, not that you were asked to babysit. :confused3

ya i totally understand.

i had (note the HAD) a friend who i always there for - i didn't have any kids and wasn't married yet so it was easy for me to go and pick up her kids or take her son to hockey when she took the daughters to dance or to have her drop them off at my house for a sleep over or an afternoon in the pool but when i got married and got paregnant she seemed to never be home to answer my calls.

i too would leave a message and wait up to a week for a response.

i never asked her to watch my daughter but it was like now i couldn't (or wouldn't) be at her beck and call she didn't have time for me.

dd is almost 4 and i haven't seen her exfriend since about 2 months after dd was born. she even blew off dd's christening even though i talked to her that morning and she told me she was on her way - a month later she sent me an email saying sorry something came up.

i dont' have time for that crap anymore - i put up with it when i was single and no family but once my dd came in to my life i won't put up with it anymore.

dh has a friend like that too. and we haven't seen much of him either - i think they get together once a year for coffee but that's it.

if it bothers you then you should probably end it or it will continue to bug you. i'm sure they'll continue to be friends at school.

it's too bad some people think the world is all about them :( sorry she's so selfish but she probably won't change
 

Have you actually asked her to watch your kids? I agree, inviting someone's child over to watch a movie and have pizza is not babysitting. You are the one INVITING the child over, not taking care of the child because the parent asked you to do so.
 
I think I understand the point of your post - you are the one inviting the child over and the other parent never invites yours.
This time though you did invite the child over for a movie. Based on the fact she didn't respond to the invitation for 3 days she had no reason to get huffy.

ETA: ok, what happened to the original post?? what is going on with the edited OPs on thread starters here? Sometimes I wish there wasn't an edit feature at all. Spelling errors and adding additional info is one thing, but removing what was said; I'm not sure I agree with that. Oh well, carry on.
 
:lmao:ok... so that rule is out the window
 
ya what happened? you won't get everyone on your "side" but some of us understand where you're coming from. no need to delete it
 
i think i'm missing something more then the op.

this is the second thread that's been deleted and people are commenting on some rule.

maybe i spend too much time in the cruise, dvc or park sections and i'm missing the good stuff

Nobody wasn't on her "side." Just confused as to whether she was actually babysitting or always the one inviting. Either way, it's not a good place to be in. Asking for clarification doesn't mean you don't sympathize!
 
missed another one.
People need to quote. I can't be here 24/7 to read stuff before it gets deleted. :rotfl:


don't tase me bro!!!

Sorry, I forgot the rule!

Not sure why sz9144 chose to delete. She/he was certainly in the right.
But out of respect I will not repost it.

i know that - just that i've seen a few posts be deleted or posters ask threads to be closed because they aren't getting the responses they'd hoped for - thought maybe the op here may have done the same thing :confused3

We really need to pay more attention to this rule!!

you tease you!!
 
And by deleting her post, now more people are going to want to know what happened. If you leave it alone, threads drop to the next page, and the next...and no-one cares anymore.
 
A thread entitled "deleted" just screams to be looked at!

:rotfl2::thumbsup2

EXACTLY. Scrolling through the pages and I saw post deleted, the first thing I thought was I hope someone remembered to quote it b4 it was deleted:lmao:
