i'm bitter and very hurt
School's coming up within the next week and I do not want to see anyone. I feel like I've gotten more bitter over the summer...like all the joy and excitement of seeing my old friends have flushed away. All summer long, those myspace comments, "We miss you so much Claire!"..., "We have to hang out!" What about those yearbook signings? "Claire, we are SOOO hanging out this summer!" Guess what. Not one phone call. Nothing. NO INVITES. I feel betrayed and so out of the circle. I see pictures of them hanging out and laughing on myspace/facebook. It's like they're rubbing it in that I'm not with them or something. Is it wrong of me to feel bitter towards each and every one of them? I didn't see any of my "friends" this summer...Oh except, I did run into two of them at the grocery store once. I've been lonely all summer..and when school starts again, I'm going to see them, and my hurt will show. How can I react to them when I see them. All those fake "Awww, Claire, we missed you SO much!!" Well, if you missed me that much, why didn't you ever ask me to hang out with everyone throughout the summer? Any words of advice?

Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
i'm in the EXACT situation. even my best friend betrayed me and had a party just the other day and didn't invite me. i'm going back into school and i'm going to have a fresh start and try to rebuild what i lost over the summer. if you know someone's having a party and nobody has called you then go ahead and call one of your friends while they're at the party, maybe they'll invite you. but when you get there don't act mad or it'll give them more reason for them not to invite you. just try to have a good time. i hope i helped a little.

I personally think [and this is only my opinion], that it's wrong of you to blame them. Friendship is a two-way street. They shouldn't be the only ones who have to put effort into the relationship. You have to give & take a little as well.
They may not have called you; but did you call them? If you made no effort either, you're no better than them & should not place all the blame & guilt on their shoulders. You have the right to be upset, but not enough to talk shit & call them fake & say that you're bitter towards them. Just accept what happened & move on. Shit happens. If you wanted to hang out; they were a phone call away. Both of you have the blame.

All i can say is that friendships go both ways. As much as they should call you...y not invite them, or call them and say where have you been? When you get back to school just say how next summer it should be different. Best of luck.
