Friends... Who needs em?

A whole year ago we were celebrating the coming of our beautiful baby boy. I invited a lot of people who I thought were friends. Of course they all RSVP'd and said they'd be coming. The morning of the party I got text from one saying she wasn't coming and come party time half of my "friends" didn't show. These friends also included my in laws. Not only was it rude to say you were coming and make me spend more money but it was also such a let down for me.

Lets fast forward a year. B is turning one and I have spent months planning and dreaming about the perfect party. I invited a few close friends I had worked with. When I finally went out of my way to contact them and ask if they were attending they got upset with me. Uh HELLO!? I have goodie bags to make and your child is the only make attending, I have hotdogs and cake to buy and your family is five people! It's so frustrating to me for people to be this way. Not only that but my in laws are planning to attend this. I don't understand why they couldn't be there for me a year ago but as soon as B finally comes they jump in and pretend to be angels.

Sorry for the rant but I so needed to get this out there. I'm sick of fake friends. I'm a grown woman and it's very sad to see all of these people still doing this. I consider ladies on Instagram closer then these so called 'friends'. It's sad that people 15 minutes away can't even RSVP when ladies I've never met send things and friends who live hours away make sure to get B gifts. It's insane. 

So thank you to all of my real friends. Thank you to the few people who are true to me and can show my son love.
