My friend Sarah and I have been wanting to get into dress making for awhile now. We finally found time and classes in our calendar but then she ended up meeting someone on Tinder 6 months ago and she's been hard to get a hold of since.
We've been trying to go for over a month but she keeps flaking every week (the classes are on Saturday and she always calls or texts on Friday saying she can't make it). I'm lucky that it's just a free trial class and not a set of 6 that required upfront payment.
One time she was out with her boyfriend and they drunk dialled me at midnight on Saturday morning to tell me she couldn't come to the class and thought I would find it funny. To be honest, I was kind of annoyed that she was bailing yet again- this was the 4th time. She'd kept pushing it back a week each time and then bailing last minute. Which also kind of sucked because it sort of throw my plans for a loop on Saturday but I still managed.
So I kind of gave up asking her but I still really wanted to go to classes. I have another friend Karen who expressed an interest taking up dressing making as well so we enrolled in classes together.
I then posted what we'd made on Instagram and Sarah blew up at at me on my messages about not inviting her and this was something we'd planned together.
I pointed out to her that I'd tried several times and she'd bailed but she said it was normal for friends to go MIA for 6 months at the start of a relationship and that I should have waited a bit longer instead of just replacing her with another friend since we'd planned this together and I'd given her my word.
I told her she'd bailed after promising to come several times and one was at midnight with a drunk dial. She said I didn't have a sense of humor and that I would be the same too when I got into a relationship.
I stopped responding after that but I don't know what to do. Was I wrong to go ahead and find a friend who did seem to want to take up this hobby with me? How do I make things better with Sarah?
tl;dr: I started a hobby with another friend after my friend bailed a few too many times after getting into a relationship. Now she's mad at me.
