Mum left fuming after friend lies about ‘cancelled’ Jubilee party – but discovers she was just uninvited
A MUM was left fuming after her friend lied about her jubilee party being cancelled, only to discover she’d actually been uninvited.
The anonymous woman took to Mumsnet to express her anger over the turn of events.
Writing on the forum the mum posted the mum explained she’d been friends with Susan* for 30 years, admitting they had become less close recently but put it down to Covid.
She wrote: “I was chuffed to be invited to Susan and David’s platinum jubilee party as they do throw a good party.
“A few weeks later the party was cancelled on Facebook as it all got too big and they were going on holiday a few days later. No problem, I understood.”
However things took a turn a few days later when the mum logged onto Facebook to find pictures of Susan’s party plastered all over her timeline.

She continued: “I’m really hurt by this. I know she doesn’t have to invite me, it’s her choice but I haven’t done anything to upset her.
“The party is clearly still on but I was uninvited. ”
Other mums on the forum were quick to offer her some support, with one commenting, “Oh, that’s horrible. Really nasty. She must have known that you’d see pics on social media??”
“That’s so spiteful of her. I’d reconsider your friendship” added another.

A third suggested confronting Susan, or asking other people what happened about the party being cancelled.
They wrote: “Can you not post a comment saying you thought it was cancelled and see what the reply is?
“Or ask a close friend who did attend why it was in-cancelled? Was it the exact same party (venue, guests etc, just minus you?)”
Another mum suggested that perhaps Susan wasn’t quite at fault and there may have been another reason for this occurrence.
She commented: “Could it be that people descended on her at the last minute? Are you all quite local?

“You know like someone stopped by with some wine or something and now it looks like a party in FB? But really it wasn’t planned? I don’t know?”
