I need to vent. My birthday is tomorrow, and my friend was supposed to come over. We told his mom that mine would pick him up and drop him off if necessary, we even invited her as well. His mother said it was fine, but the next day she took it back saying "Ask your father" his father has yet to give him a straight answer so obviously he's not coming. What pisses me off isn't so much that he can't come, but their fact that the're trying to be sneaky about it. He's in his 20's so at the very least they can be honest with him. Unfortunately he needs their permission because, for various reasons,that I do not need to go into, he still has to live with his parents and as such, must live by their rules, but if they don't want him coming over then they should be honest about it instead of going back on their words and using thin smokescreens to hinder him.
This may seem like no big deal to most people but for me it is huge because I moved far away from my hometown and this guy is the only local friend I have. He knows my mother quite well as they worked together for several months, so it's not like he'd be in the company of strangers. If anything, its more like he'd be visiting two friends rather than one.
So things are cleared up now and supposedly we're going to hang out next weekend.
