Ok, so I hope this doesnt sound too minor, because right now it is major to me.
One of my best friends went away to boarding school, so I don't see her very often at all. When she did live here last year full time, we still didnt see each other often because we went to different high schools and I live an hour and a half away. Anyway, my friends that are closer, well I hang out with them alot. And one time, she had a sleepover, and I wasnt allowed to go, because my dad said I had no way of getting back home, but I ended up staying over my other friend's who were closer's house, and my best friend was understandably offended. One of the people who I usually hang out, well, we like each other, and we're finally going on a date this sat. night. And this is supposed to be the date of all dates (the determining factor basically), and we've been planning it (well he) for two weeks. My best friend from boarding school just texted me and told me that me and my two other friends would be hanging out at her house on Sat. night since her bday was two weeks ago, and now she's down here. I had no idea she was coming, she just texted me! And I don't see her often (well, she is coming down for thanksgiving in two weeks), and I don't want her to be mad, because I'm hanging out with the guy. I know she won't understand that it's an important date, and he put alot of thought into it, I dont know what we're doing because he said its a surprise (so its that serious). But I don't want her to think I'm a bad friend. Help! should i postpone the date and hang out with my best friend, or should I go on the date, and just her when she comes back?

Try to talk to your friend about it. She may seem a bit upset because you don't get to see each other much, but hopefully she'll understand. And if she doesn't, maybe you could try to talk to the guy about rescheduling, maybe he'll be understanding. [ batteredxdreams's advice column | Ask batteredxdreams A Question ]
