Is she really a friend???

You don't go into detail about the friendship and it's relationship as far as how close of a friend this person was or is. So I can't really say a lot. But from what you've said it seems she just might have been busy with the house building etc. Felt guilty then tried to make up by asking about a b-day party. I say talk with her then find out exactly whats up. As far as buying things from friends for a discount I avoid that as it can and usually does cause a conflict in the relationship. Especially if whatever is bought turns out to be defective or something along those lines. Good luck and keep us filled in on the end results/explanation from her. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!`

I personally wouldn't have nothing else to do with her and you are so correct she only want something from you at this moment and I wouldn't allow myself to be used in that way and neither should you that was a very special moment in you and you little girl life and she didn't even have the concern to call or text email or nothing please don't have her as your friend cause she is a friend only when she need and not when you might need and she will take take and take but never give in return. stay focus

Well if you do not feel she is worth having as a friend anymore, then I would not contact her. I would let her know how you feel and see if that helps first if you think the friendship is worth saving. She may have had a lot going on and it could have slipped her mind. I have known this to happen to people. Take your time and see what best suits you in the long run.

maybe she's a friend who just likes to take advantage of others. there are some people who gets close to another person because they want something, but if that person doesn't have the thing that they want, they will just ignore that person. best not to get close to these kind of people, all you get is heartbreak in the end. but we should treat others the way we want others to treat us, so just be nice to your friend but don't be too nice and let her take advantage of you.

maybe she is really your friend.but maybe she just confused or she have many needs is more important from invited your party.and thats is not same with not attentions you.so one skin i say with my opinion she is still your really friend.and better you invited to her party.

When she did call you out of the blue did you ask her why she didn't make or at least notify she wasn't going to be able and make it to your daughter's christening? Sometimes people who you think are your best friend really aren't. A so-called best friend shouldn't do something like that to you. If it was me, I would help her out on the discount either if she asked.

What is a best friend to you? I really do not know how long you know each other, and why you define her as your best friend. The question is, does she define you as a friend also, how does she see you? Did she start being this best friend when she started building the house and needed you? I think that there are times that we do make mistakes and we do not know how to apologize or explain why we did them. And that could be the case. I think that if you do see her as one of your best friends you should invite her, and see what is going on. The best way to do that is act normal, and not involve business with personal friendship. Try not to give her at least at the begining special discounts on those products that she needs to buy from you in order to build her house, and see what is her reaction, and if she still stays this best friend.

I dont think she is a real friend especially if she could'nt turn up to your daughters christening and then out of the blue rings you up to see if your having a birthday, that is so uncool,,, I wouldn't be bothered with her and I would just let her know how I felt before that day, I would let her have it and then see what she has to say for herself, but nah I truly don't think she is a true friend.... Yes well she must have a reason behind the contact...

you know what, i dont think she thinks herself as one of your best friends. She's totally taking advantage of you.... i'd say dump her before she pulls some backstabbing stunts
