A friend had something weird happen to him at the park the other day, and I was curious to see if this was par for the course mom-friend behavior or whether this was, say, a little rude.
Basically, he befriended a mom at a nearby park and after a few days was invited to join in an impromptu picnic, and then, at said lunch, the moms started planning a beach trip. My friend, who by then had thought he was one of the group, grew excited until he realized they were planning on going without him.
"I suppose it doesn’t occur to them that I am sitting right there, another at-home parent in the market for daytime activities. But remember the old rule not to invite people to something in the presence of people who aren’t invited? Well, they didn’t."
Tacky, rude or peachy keen?
