I got tickets to tomorrow's US Open Event - not just tickets, but like BOX tickets through my company with the 'big wigs' b/c my SINGLE friend woh's a female is completely obsessed with Tennis. She was so excited, and we made plans to have bkfst together, go to the match, and then do a little shopping afterwards.
Great Right? It doesn't matter that I had to go through seven million people - including Moses, God, and Johovva to get these tickets.
She calls me six seconds ago and goes 'I'm so excited, Mike (name changed b/c she might be lurking - good if you're reading this!) just called me and I'm going to Ikea in NJ to help him pick out furniture tomorrow, what do you think I should wear?' w t f....you're serious right? she's completely AWARE how I basically broke my back to get these tickets and i don't even LIKE TENNIS...for her!
And you're DITCHING me to go furniture shopping with a guy you met on a bus, known for three weeks exactly, and is using you as booty call (only calls her at 1am to hang out at his house).....
Never once in my life as a single girl did I EVER cancel plans on anyone to hang out with a guy!

What your friend did was wrong. I feel sorry for her, being unable to do the right thing. She sort of admits that she knows she is not as independent as she should be.

Re: MAJOR VENT: I HATE My SINGLE FRIEND!
I would totally lose it and cut her off!!!! I was stuck with tickets to a concert this year bc of a similar situation-- try to sell them on ebay or craigs list-- many people would love those tickets and you can hopefully get your money back!

I AM NOT SAYING THIS TO BE MEAN but just like to point out that maybe that's why she still is single...
I don't think that is fair...considering we don't know her.

Re: MAJOR VENT: I HATE My SINGLE FRIEND!
Posted by ItalGrkWedding wow....I can't believe she feels that Mr. Booty Call is worth $750!
I hate to admit this in a public forum but I have had my share of booty calls (WAY BEFORE FH) and none of them were worth more than 50 cents. When they started to TALK, their values depreciated.
Christine, you handled yourself like a classy lady and I would collect on those tickets!

Same here, Leslie...I have had my share of booty calls, and the only ones that stuck around for 2 years++, I STILL would not cancel plans for!!! They're booty calls, so they're available at any given time, TRUST ME!! When it came to guys, I called the shots!
Christine, I am so sorry. I don't think your friend even realizes how this guy knows he now has her at his 'beck and call' and will soon tire of her. I would fill the 2 spots at your wedding if I wasn't having my own!!!
Friends like that will only continue to let you down...I've had plenty of them and that's why I don't have many female friends. Been backstabbed too many times!!
But at least you know Andrew and I will be there to party with you after our wedding is over!!!

Re: MAJOR VENT: I HATE My SINGLE FRIEND!
I could understand maybe if you guys were going to Lunch but Hello, its the US Open and you went to alot of trouble to get them. I would be so pissed. You better take that $750 from her for those tickets.

Wow Christine, that is horrible. I am with you...I'd be sooo pissed. That is no way to treat a friend....if she doesn't value the friendship, I wouldn't keep her as a friend.

Re: MAJOR VENT: I HATE My SINGLE FRIEND!
Christine,
That is just AWFUL! I would never do that to someone let alone one of my close friends. Honestly, as someone else said, if she's willing to ditch this over a guy she just met, then she's not really a Tennis Fan. Even more importantly, if she's willing to do this to YOU especially after your phone call and how you explained how you went out of your way and how much it cost you, then she's not really a friend. But, in a way I kind of feel sorry for her that she is so insecure that she will lose this guy by ditching a day of furtniture shopping for a once in a lifetime thing like this. Because I think that's what it comes down to. I think you handled it very well. Make sure she pays you and definitely invest the money in a Chocolate Fountain.

Sorry that this happened to you..But I agree with what someone else said....After the booty and he ditches her...who is she going to come crying back to..and I hope you are on the other end of the phone waiting with 4 words 'I TOLD YOU SO'

Re: MAJOR VENT: I HATE My SINGLE FRIEND!
I had a friend like that - as much as it hurts, it is definitely not worth the frustrations to deal with it all of the time.
