Hey,

Sorry to hear you are going through a stressy time. Hopefully once your tummy gets used to the new foods, it will calm down and you won't have to worry about it so much.. I am sending good tummy thoughts your way.

I think it's really strange that a girl you don't know that well asked you to be her bridesmaid... You'd think that would sort of be reserved for best mates sort of thing. I wonder if maybe she just doesn't have many friends? I guess it's an awkward thing to turn down.. I'm not a very superstitious person so I can say I don't think you should worry about it, but I guess that doesn't help much.

As for your friend slagging you off, I think unfortunately lots of people have to go through that with their girlfriends. I know I went through it with my best friend (because I was ill) and we haven't spoken in over a year now. I don't know what it is with people.. they would rather blame us for being a bad friend than have to support us when we feel poorly? Sounds to me like your friend is just selfish and if you are getting in the way of her having a good time or whatever, she's not interested. Meh, I say good riddance! People like that will never stand by you in hard times, and you never know when a hard time will pop up!

Good luck, hope tum calms down and everything else sorts itself out as well!

Cheers!
Steph
