It’s my friend’s bday today and i need advice on how to continue with this issue. My friend and I have had a friendship for about 6yrs now. She recently broke up and moved out from living with her ex (toxic), and she started a new job around feb maybe. She was still 20 at the time and met a supervisor (i think supervisor) at her job around that time as well. This guy is 25, and from what she has told me, this guy is basically trying to flirt with her and give her life advice, but at the same time he says they can’t be more than friends. To me, it sounds like the guy probably wants something with benefits but wtv. Her bday arrives and i text her happy bday first thing in the morning, and ask what time she’ll be off work so i can see her today and drop off a gift. She tells me she might go out to dinner with her neighbor (who she currently stays with) but it seemed weird because she’s also a family person and i’d assume she’d spend it w her fam and not her neighbor? her neighbor is also an old lady. So i tell her id probably stop by some time later in the day, and make sure she’s home just in case. Around the time im heading to her place, i check her location and text her id be there around 30 min. no response. I make sure she’s still at her house within a couple minutes away from arrival. she still is. I arrive at her place and call her, she forwards my call to voicemail. I check her location, she was now around 2 blocks down the street. She has yet to call me back and it’s currently 12 am. this took place around 6pm. Now, maybe a bit invasion of privacy but i just wanted to see what she was up to, so around 7 pm i check her location & she’s out at a restaurant, so i was like okay, “a msg wouldn’t hurt” but wtv. She mentioned the guy shes interested in (25m supervisor from earlier) took her to a hooka lounge not too long ago which she never done before but i was like okay cool. I check her location at 9pm… she’s at the hooka lounge 🧍🏻‍♀️ Fast forward to 11 pm, she’s at a bar.

Essentially, after connecting the dots, i realized she lied to me for some reason ab what she would be doing, and purposely ignored my msg & call. I know she’s a grown woman, but im upset that she couldn’t let me know bc i told her id stop by, and she never told me otherwise. (sorry for horrible grammar throughout). I am aware im not her mother to tell her who she can and cant be with, i just simply advised to be careful w the guy (25m). So i’m really upset that she has ignored me, and also lied to me for a guy she just met. All i wanted was at least 5 minutes of her time, but idk. Am I wrong for being upset? I genuinely feel like i shouldn’t talk to her for some time… :(
