Ok guys! It's my turn! Really not happy about this.

Summary - 4 of us friends on long weekend holiday together. 2 men, 2 women. I organised everything with no help and little thanks. My best female friend is right now in bed with other friend. They both seeing other people. She is organising her life to move to another country with bf in a couple of months.

It's a long one!

Full version : so, I (F late 40s) from UK. Travelled to Belgium for long weekend with 3 friends. 2 women and 2 men. Stayed in hostel in our own private room. I booked and organised EVERYTHING. With no help, and little thanks. And I drove to Belgium in my car.

One of my best friends (F mid 40s), we travelled to Poland 2 years ago, she met a man who lives in London, they got together, she's organising her life to move to Germany with him. She has done a course for work out there, she is waiting for her daughter to finish exams. She leaves in a couple of months.

Her bf is lovely, but has a very f'd up pattern of behaviour - silent treatment, holding grudges. He's also very insecure and makes things difficult for her with his comments and behaviour.

My other friend, he is attractive, good looking, funny, doesn't settle down with women and likes to be free and easy. He's been kinda seeing another friend recently. He asked me to F him a few months ago. I said no.

My best friend is gorgeous. She is a wonderful woman, very grounded, very lovely.

Last night was Saturday night. We saw bands, we drank booze, all 4 walked home together. I went to bed. I thought everyone did.

I wake this morning to 'friend' (M 40 ish - more an acquaintance than friend) snoring (friend 3). Ironic because he accused me and friend 2 (M 40) of snoring on our first night. My best friend, friend 1, said no, you weren't snoring, just breathing heavily. Friend 3 is a d1ck and been annoying me since we arrived. He's unaware of anyone's needs but his own.

When I wake, I think it's friend 2 snoring. He was accused with me first morning, obviously perfect number 3 doesn't snore. I also hear talking/whispering.

I say 'friend 3, have you got someone in bed with you??..... You'd better not have brought someone back...' I repeat a couple of times, but no answer. All goes quiet. I say 'are you ignoring me?'. I'm p'd off. He's selfish and a d1ck. I see my friends bed empty and think F this, I'm gonna go join her for breakfast'. She woke yesterday at 7.30, went for breakfast, went back to bed around 9.30. It was 7.30 when I was woken. By snoring and whispering.

I get up, get dressed, go to the bed to see who the F friend 3 has brought home to our shared room. He is asleep and snoring. I look down and friend 2 and 1 in friend 2s bed. I am like 'what the F' and kick off. About her bf, about moving to Germany, about the fact we in hostel, we in shared room, I was getting up to join her for breakfast, blah blah. Today was going to be sightseeing day before return home tomorrow. Now I don't want to do anything with any of them.

I'm so f'd off. I feel my holiday weekend has been ruined. We were 4 mates going away together. Now we are me and irritating friend 3, and friend 1 & 2 the new couple that will not be a couple for long no doubt. The new f buddies! What do I do? I am currently eating breakfast and mulling over what the F to do and how to behave to them.

I have the long drive home tomorrow, back to work Tuesday. I'm so pissed off.

Should I ditch my 2 friends as friends? All of them? Let it go and enjoy a day with them? Enjoy being a 3rd wheel to my best friend and other good friend? Ignore them, do my own thing, drive home in silence tomorrow?

As much as I'd like to just get in my car and leave right now, I am not a twat and won't be abandoning them in another country. So unless you can show me that that is the right thing to do, I won't be doing that. All other advice welcome and very much wanted in terms of how to deal with these people moving forward.

AITAH being so pissed off with them all?
