Sucky Sleepover-Ask Jenny

Dear Jenny,

Me freind and i wuz gonna have a sleepover at my house and i called her earlier that day.. She didn't pick up the phone. It was 3 hours early so i dicided to call her late when shed get back from wherever she was. i had forgotten to call her but it was when she was supposed to comeover so i decided to wait for her to come over. She was about 30 minutes later. Butt i waited anyways. i hadnt noticed how late it was until i looked at the clock and i reelized that she was 2 hours later. i called her, and there was no answer. A little maddish, i called her again but she didnit pick up her cell phone or her home. i waited for another hour only to hear the phone ring. i picked it up and it was my friend telling me that she couldnt come over anymore. She wouldnt tell me why, but i could hear people talking in the background, they sounded like mes age. She quickly said good bye and hung up. i felt really hurt. i know i might be jumping to conclusions and stuff, but i felt super dissepponted and mad at her. i was really looking forward to the sleepover. Am i making a big deal out of this?

Dear fealing dissepponted,
You kinda are making a big deal out of this, but I know how you feel. My friend and I were planning a sleepover for OVER A MONTH, and then she canceled!! *cough cough M.L.* But you shouldn't like, make a SUPER BIG DEAL out of this, because maybe she just had like, another party she forgot about, or something. Or maybe she had some friend come over from like, Ohio, or something, and figured that since you're always there, you can plan one on another time. Or maybe, she really did forget, and since they were already there, she couldn't do anything. I don't think that missing one sleepover is actually a good reason to mess up your friendship. Unless that friend is a total pain and a backstabber. Then you should sever the friendship (look at the big word I used!!) and never talk to her again!!!! Yeah. But missing just one sleepover is ok. Do not make a too big of a deal over this. Cause, it's not that important. Hope things work out! :)
