Sam drama
I hate making up stories to protect Sam from getting her feelings hurt. Today me and the 2 other Kerri's went to lunch and Sam wasn't able to go because she was working and didn't get to take lunch at that time, well Sam always gets upset when we hang out without her. We invite her to come out with us all the time but she is too busy hanging out with her boyfriend, and the one time that she was able to go, she canceled last minute, now that is in no way my fault but yet I'm the only one she complains to. I really like Sam but I can't handle her jealousy over something so stupid. So me, Carey and Keri got back from lunch and we sat down and Sam asked where we went and so Carey told her we went to La Mesa and we were all talking about random things that had happened on our way back to work or something along those lines and then after a while when we weren't talking about it anymore I said that I smelled like the restaurant and Sam asked me where I went and I start to respond when Keri whispers that she will get mad, so trying to think quick, I make up a whole new story as to where I went (yes I feel bad for lying but I thought I was doing it for a good cause...ok so really I'm a bad person) and it seemed like a normal story, Sam questions it a little bit, but overall believed it, so shortly after that Sam's shift is over and leaves. Right after Sam leaves, me and the girls go on break and that's when we talked about what we were going to tell Sam if she brings it up again...well this whole thing was a misunderstanding, because what Keri had actually said was "Is she mad" instead of "She will get mad" and so we had to come up with a back up story, and we also realized how inconsistent our stories were from the beginnig. Like when we first got there and Sam asked where we went Carey said all of us, and then I had said that I left 2 minutes before them and somehow they got there before me...I don't know how close attention Sam was paying but I hope she isn't mad...but isn't it stupid how we have to lie about hanging out with each other? We all like Sam but we are getting a little annoyed with her because she knows she is always invited but she always turns it around and acts like nobody cares about her, I mean honestly, we think it would be really awkward if Sam ever did come out with us, she is so different compared to us and she's kinda judgemental so therefore everyone would have to watch what they said and or did.
If anyone should be annoyed it should be me. Sam and I had a class together and it went okay for the most part, she was kinda annoying but nothing I couldn't handle (I've put up with a lot of annoying people in my life who were much worse) she always thought (from my point of view) that she was better than me, sure she may have gotten better grades but it was her major, where me, I hate art but I still worked my ass off and was proud of my B but she got an A and thought I was dumb (again this is how it felt, it may not have been her intention but it made me feel bad).
Ok fast forward to the part of why I should be the one who is mad and not her. Sam and I have a mutual friend that we worked with at Tj Maxx (Sam and I worked there at different times and I didn't meet Sam until I started working at SST) anyway, me and Alisha (Sam and I's mutual friend) decided that the three of us should go have dinner together sometime and Alisha and I have invited Sam numerous times (well in advance) and she was always too busy. Well one day Sam and Alisha made plans to go eat dinner and Alisha had asked Sam to call me and invite me to go, and Sam never called or invited me but told Alisha that I wasn't able to make it because I was too busy. Then the next day Sam thought by telling me that she had dinner with Alisha would make me jealous, well it didn't work, I could careless if I was invited or not. A few days ago Alisha and I hung out and we invited Sam and once again she couldn't go and later that night Alisha told me that she was sad that I wasn't able to hang out with her and Sam a few weeks ago, I told her that I wasn't invited and that's when we found out that Sam had lied because she was feeling left out of everything. Honestly it doesn't bother me that she didn't invite me, but what does bother me is the fact that she lied and made up an excuse as to why I didn't go with them. I was never upset about this at all until Sam started this whole I'm being left out thing when really it's her fault since she has been invited to everything she just can't or won't ever go. Man I feel like I'm in high school again...I'm too old to be caught up in this petty little drama because honestly the answer to all this should be "who cares" I just don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.
