View Full Version : Feeling left out.

A few weeks ago my friend decided to have a birthday sleepover party. She had two dates and she said whichever one suited most people would be the day. I couldn't go on the first date because drama concert and so couldn't 2 other girls.

She decided to go with the first day which I was okay with but then for some reason the two girls plans got changed and I would've been the only one not going.

They had the sleepover last night and during/after the concert I video called them, they were all having so much fun and I wasn't there. They were talking, gossiping and telling jokes together while the Internet kept dropping which meant a lot of the time I couldn't hear or see a thing but they didn't seem to care.

I told them I'd call back so I hung up and called back, the birthday girl answered and said everybody was going to go to sleep so I shouldn't call.

This didn't make sense to me at all because I left the call while they all just started jumping on the trampoline in the dark together and called back as soon as possible.

I'm just wondering if my feeling of being left out from the sleepover is normal? I've been feeling really left out lately in lots of different situations.

Maybe they just wanted to do something away from the internet, it doesn't sound like they were leaving you out on purpose or to be mean, always another party you will be able to go to

I think it's normal that you feel left out I know how you feel and I think that if I were to have been in your situation I would've felt left out as well.

Maybe next time you and your friends can plan a next sleepover and arrange it at a time where this time you are actually able to make it and maybe you won't feel as left out. I think that your friends still care about you and still want to be your friend and all. Probably what happened when you were calling them and when it seemed like "they didn't care" maybe they were just having too much fun that they forget about the people who aren't exactly there and are just worrying about what is going on even when they don't intend to. The next time if you see them and they still hang around with you then I think everything should be fine :) It's just unfortunate that you couldn't make it but you can always plan a next one.
