writes:I sent a text to my friend one afternoon to find out if she fancied meeting up that evening if we were both free. She was at work and so I didn't expect a reply, if any til she finished. At the same time, I was at my Mum's boyfriend's place, round the corner from her and minutes before she called me to answer the text, I was invited to go out with Mum and her b/f, to which I accepted. Therefore, when she called I cancelled and told her my plans. The question is this: I invited her out again tonight and when I called her up she told me that she was still annoyed from that night when I cancelled/changed her plans. She said she got the message ten minutes before she called me. Anyways, is she right to be annoyed? What should I/she have done? How can we make it up and be friends again? Please help, thank you.

 My best friend happens to do this to me, if I'm not home fast enough then she makes other plans, It's quiet annoying and frustrating. She has the right to be upset and she'll get over it sooner then you think. She hasn't said anything about not being friends she just wants to cool off. Don't worry about it.

hey sweetie.
im sure that you can be friends again. i think your friend is overacting.
why not send her a note-better than a text explaining that there was a misunderstanding.
tell her you value her friendship very much and miss her and wait for a reply.
if she still decides not to forgive you then she wasnt a friend to begin with,
i dont even think this is your fault but by offering an olive branch you are being the mature one in all of this.
good luck hun hope you two become good pals again x

 your friend got the text a little too late.
u already had made plans with ur mum and bf, so u couldnt really back down from that.
either way its a small issue to come in the way of friendship, call her back up and suggest u make it up to her, and go out.
good luck
