Reading Too Much Into It?

[garfoldsomeoneelse]

She hates you, dude.

She prefers the company of three other people over you. And that's just present company! Imagine all the other friends she has that she would sacrifice you for!

They're all probably conspiring to kill you right now, just so you can't interfere in their friendships. Kill you. Kill you. Kill you. Kill you. Kill you. Kill you. Kill you.

On Friday, me and a large group of friends decided to go to BW3 to eat. When we got there, they couldn't seat our party of about 16 together, so we decided to split into 3 groups, and each group have a "captain" to choose who would be in the groups. My best friend was one of them. She ended up choosing three people before she choose me. I was kinda upset by it but put it off for the night.

Am I reading too much into this? Or is my sense of disappoint justified?

You might be, but if you're anything like me, you just can't help it. I'm the kind of person who, if given the choice of any superpower, would take mind reading before anything else.

Yup, I would most defiantly choose mind reading as a super power also.

Don't invest so much time and energy into people.
Enjoy their company, and remember that in a few years, you'll have forgotten their name.

Nope. you're not reading into it to much at all Steve. It's a subtle hint that while you consider her to be your best friend she does not consider it the same or that you're so lame that you're only 3rd on her list. Probably because you secretly want to freak her.

Or it's just random bullcrap.

There's a difference between long-term best friends and current best friends, you know........

It's something to take into consideration....

 

[TheFurryChicken]

I'd say you're reading too much into it. It may have been that these were some people that she really wanted to talk to about something specific and that you already knew them/wouldn't care a whole lot. I don't know the situation, it just sounds like you shouldn't be offended or concerned.

I'd consider her long term. She's been my best friend for 5 years and despite our group of friends changing, we've always been friends.

High school drama, yay!
Get over it i say.

Maybe you can sing your problems away, like some sort of High-School-Musical *ponders*

Ya but what I mean is that, while she will always be best friends with you, there might be people who she is really best friends with for now........who she might pick over you because they're newer and she doesn't know everything about them already.........if that makes sense.....

It probly doesn't.... XD

I'm more concerned that you and your friends set people as "captains" of tables. Surely you would all just grab a chair at any one of your 3 appointed tables and it wouldn't matter? Because you're all friends.

Also if you two are "best friends" you probably see a whole lot of each other, which means she doesn't get to talk with her other friends as much as you? So maybe she wanted said chance?

Basically - forget about it, it doesn't mean a thing.

East Enders theme tune of suspense *dun dun dun dun dun dundundundun*
Just kidding, i would be upset, but i dont think it really matters if they like people better than you, its not going to effect how much you like them or how much they like yo if you're really good friends.
Im not having a go at you, but could it be that your friend is there for you more than you are there for them?

I think it sounds like you're reading too much into it. If it was me, I'd just let it ride for now. If its really getting to you, you should talk to your friend about it and see what they say.

That actually made a whole lot of sense. Like...a lot...

Don't bring it up to her. It probably isn't as big of a deal as you are making it, and bringing it up will make you seem whiny.

 

[Lord George]

Yes the only solution is to call her out as a *****, throw her into a wall and assert your dominance as a "captain", its the only valid response to such a grave insult. (Remember its only assault if there's witness's)

Bonus points for roaring while doing this.

I read way too much into everything, even the way in which people said things and their body language. I'd be inclined to say it means nothing, but I'd be a little pissed/confused as well, if I were in that position.

I'm hopelessly paranoid.

Same here, it sucks after awhile. But then you actually hit on something, and you feel so proud of yourself.

 

[ri0thex]

Isn't it entirely possible that, having developed a close friendship with you, she was taking this light social opportunity to develope better friendships with people who may be more tertiary in her life?

That is just unheard of, blasphemy I say!
