It's gotten weirder since then!
On Christmas Day, Sandra called and invited our daughter to come to her place to play on that day or the 26. I told her that's great, and the 26th would be fine. Sandra, our daughter, and Michelle went to the wax museum (it's just a few blocks away), and then they played for an hour at her apartment.
We invited Michelle to come for the day that Friday, and she came and they played, and my husband took them swimming. All was good, I thought.
Sandra had said she would pick up Michelle at 4:30, and she called at 4:00, saying that her brother would pick up Michelle instead, since she would be about 20 minutes late. I told her Michelle was welcome to stay until Sandra could pick her up, but Sandra insisted that her brother come because she had said 4:30.
The next week (the kids were still off from school), we weren't able to invite Michelle again. We had two other friends come and play with our daughter, we had two doctor appointments, Lily had her vet appointment, and we had an appointment at the bank.
So... Monday school starts again, and we are outside waiting for the bell to go in, and Sandra walks past me, ignoring me again. I said hello to her, then followed her for a couple of steps, explaining that we had hoped to have Michelle over again, but had a busy week. She didn't say anything, but continued walking away.
This week at school, our daughter and Michelle played during recesses on Monday and Tuesday, but Michelle refused to play with her Wednesday through Friday! My daughter tried to call Michelle Wed. night, but Michelle said she couldn't talk and would call her Thursday night (never did).
I tried to catch up with Sandra Thurs. and Fri. mornings but she was completely avoiding me, leaving through side doors, etc. and I didn't pursue.
I'm really tired of his ridiculousness. The last time I had a conversation with Sandra, she told me I was one of her best friends. My family's discussed this at home, and can find absolutely nothing that could cause her to act like this! Like I said, I haven't been able to have a conversation with her... how have I offended her? I don't gossip or betray trusts!
My daughter is pretty upset, so I am going to try once more for her sake. I think I will try to call Sandra, and if she doesn't pick up, I'll leave a message that I'd like to talk to her, and to please call me back. If she doesn't, I thought I'd go by her apartment to try to work things out.
What do you think? How am I supposed to talk to someone who has totally shut me out? Can envy do this?
I'm confused and disappointed. How do we expect nations to get along when individuals are acting like this? I've never encountered anything like this! I don't know :censor::censor::censor: is going on!
I'll eagerly read any advice you have. I'll update if/when there's progress. Thanks for listening!
