to be upset? Just got back home fr. a get together at a friend's house, pretty upset. My friend belle has always known to be insecure in relationships - always needs approval, never single, changes her identity for a guy. She's the girl who NEEDS to be married and is obsessed w. it. She's also known to leave us 3 girls behind when she's committed. Our friend Mary is married and is obsessed w. playing matchmaker; whereas I've always been single, made mistakes here and there but growing/learning. Mary set up belle w. a friend of hers; thing is, belle just broke up w her bf of 2 yrs the week before. After the set up, they were in a relationshp. I've known belle since high school but kept my distance bc of how she's treated me. Mary discovered this for herself about how belle doesn't appreciate or give her time to friends. I'm still friends w. belle but at an arm's length. Our other mutual friend isn't too happy about the new relationship but like me, is smart enough to just let her be happy...belle is too insecure and stubborn. Mary (however) is THRILLED and keeps encouraging Belle.

Tonight at this get together, I showed up happy to see the girls. I understood I wouldn't talk w. Mary as much bc she was the hostess. When more people I came, I had my party manners and spoke, caught up w. everyone, including belle's family. I would see belle and mary together talking but wasn't jealous...just let them have their space, probably excited for their families to merge and get to know each other. At times, they would just be at another room talking and it was embarassing having other guests question to why i'm not w. my friends and i had no clue. I would make an effort by joining it but they were in their own world talking about the new bf so i gave them their space. I think Mary is taking advantage of the attention Belle is now giving her. Also, it didn't help when a party guest insulted me. According to belle's family, he's an a$$Hole. We were taking pictures and he called me out in front of everyone there making fun of how I take pictures...my poses and how I smile. Not only did the room crack up but belle and mary were dying of laughter, the loudest laughs. I tried to laugh back and be a sport about it but wheni i saw them, they couldn't stop laughing. That was the final straw and just decided to leave. I politely thanked them and left. There's no doubt in my mind they were probably speculating to why I left...they probably even think i was a b*tch for doing that and i'm probably just over sensitive right now...but do i have the right to be upset?
the guy who insulted me...that was the very fist time I met him...
