I answered it because it has been a long time since I heard from her.
She said that there is a gathering at C, our common friend (someone who lives a couple of blocks away), but G was specifically told not to tell me.
... because my family weren't invited.
Thank goodness. I didn't have to make up reasons not to go.
I didn't exactly know how to feel when G told me that, but I was sure I didn't like what she did.
C trusted G.
G was more close to C than with me. They go on trips together, and their kids hang out all the time.
I am not always comfortable with C. She showered me with superlative praises in front of people we know, and I haven't heard these privately---between us. I don't trust people like her.
It is common knowledge to people who know me that I do not really have close friends but the mister, my kids, and a sibling.
I used to be close to my two other siblings, but one drifted apart when the latter accused me about money that I didn't know anything about---money that was not mine and didn'twork hard for, and wasn't interested at all. The other sibling is idealistic, and still wanted a relationship with that sibling, and still occasionally include him in our conversations.
When the relationship is over, it is over. I am not hateful, I am just realistic.
Greed! It is evil.
You grab all, and you lose all.
Back to G, she made me not to trust her. She didn't call me again after that, and I have not seen or heard from her since then.
But this is what I recently heard from their common close friend that G and C aren't friends anymore.
What a surprise!
