Frustrated BFF/MOH...what to do?

megz1983

Hi ladies!

I need your help. My best friend and maid of honor seems frustrated lately that I do not have as much time to spend with her as the "good old days."

She is single and has been organizing a lot of "girls only" and costly events like concerts, trips to Vegas, etc.

I sense her frustration and I really do make effort to spend 1:1 time with her.  It's just that I have to be choosy with my time and money these days! 

How can I gently help her understand that while she is very important to me, I just cannot participate in everything? 

What to do?

Thanks!

Tell her you're poor and suggest feeding the park ducks instead of going to Vegas.

Hahaha I like Kuus' idea

Yeah, I would just say something like, "I'd love to spend time with you but i can't afford that. how abut you come over and i'll make us dinner when you get back?"

If she gets bitchy with you about the not going to expensive trips, just blame it on the money and say that of course you WANT to do those things, you just CAN'T.
