WWYD re: "a friend" and facebook

Some of the seasoned nesties may recall me asking opinions about this probably close to 4 years ago...here's is the back story. A "friend" came to my wedding (Aug 2008) and her gift (a check) bounced. She called me when the check was returned to her and apologiized profusely and said she'd send a new one with the bank fees. When I called her a month later to ask if she sent it (for no other reson other than if she did send it, it did not get to me) she said it came back to her bc she had the worng zip code. Another month passes and still nothing. I ask again. Same story. I NEVER mentioned it again bc honestly I figured she clearly needed the $50 more than I did. I didn't want to lose her as a friend. Over the course of the nest 6 months, I texted/called/emailed and got no response. I chalked it up to her being embarrassed. Finally I gave up bc she obviously didn't care about our friendship. Fast forward to now...she friend requested me on facebook. No message just a request. While I would like nothing more than to catch up and consider her a friend again (not fb friend but a friend friend lol) I feel like she owes me an apology. A huge part of me reallyyyyy wants to just give her a piece of my mind. This teensy tiny part of me wants to accept the friend request and see if she attempts to redeem herself. WWYD? PS sorry for the huge paragraph. Stupid phone. :)

  • That's annoying about the check/wedding situation!  I think I would just accept the request and see what happens.  But I'm also generally not a fan of confrontation.  I would just be cautious moving forward and let her take the lead.
  • putting the check thing aside.... I say do not accept friendship.  Your number has not changed in the last few years... she could have called/texted ya to catch up. What does your gut say?  

     I had a real life friend that became a fb friend. We had a big fall out a few years ago.  Fast forward to earlier this year, she texted me, I called her. We met up and aired out the fall out.  While we are both going through a lot of things, we have not gotten to the level we were nor do I think we ever will.  And that is ok.  Knowing that while not in each others life but still in each others hearts is enough.

  • Thanks so much ladies! As of now she is still sitting there just waiting to be accepted. I think I will accept and put her on the limited access to my sh!t list (bc she's probably just being nosey lol) and see if she has anything to say for herself. Thanks again :)
