Mixed Signals

Ok I am adult female with a diversity circle of friends. One of my girlfriends (Teresa) told me that she didnt care for another one of my friends (Bridget). Which is fine we're not all supposed to get along. Bridget is very upbeat and allways happy, and really likes to hang out even on minutes notice. Teresa has a humdrum attitude about most things in general, and loves drama. Its now rubbing off on her kids. Last time Teresa was over she had mentioned that they need to find some new friends. I didnt think anything of it, and thought it was geared toward another family, since they've had their ups and downs over the years. We've never had a problem with Teresa and her family. She had asked us to go camping with them, then we didnt have any camping equipment. We brought a motorhome a year ago and invited them 4 different times on our camping trips. Never once have they gone, so we gave up on asking them. But they make plans with others and go with them. Once we did have plans to go about 4 months in advance, I am so glad we didnt make reservations, they made other plans. I would have been so upset, since we were only going because they were interested and we have been there a few months before hand. About three weeks ago we saw the other family and his kids and chatted with them for a few minutes. Well here comes Teresa and family, they just totally breezed by us, she threw her hand up and waved, but the son just turned his head the other way and kept walking. Now today we saw Teresa and two of her kids at the store,they both had snareled looks, and she said she needed to get fruit for a bbq. They walked right past us, and didnt stop for a quick conversation, hi how are you, you know anything like that. I told my husband that I guess we were included on that finding new friends thing. When we did get together, she would completly ignor me and converse with her other friends since they all work together. But when they went away for a few days, she would ask me if I could come in and check in on their dogs, and their mother in law.Also I would pick her kids up and drive them to the same functions that we were going to. So now I realized she was just using me for that. Thing is we will all be at the same sporting function with our kids starting next Saturday, until the end of March.I know once back into our sporting function she'll say oh we should get together! I figure I will say hi, but not go out of my way. We've knowen them for 9 years.
