I 21 F am going on a weekend long trip to a festival with my friend 19F and it’s a 10 hour drive from where we live. We agreed to take my car and split the drive. The problem comes in between us because she paid for both tickets and it’s was about $700 in total. I told her I would pay her back for my ticket and we can split the cost of the hotel and gas. Fast forward 3 months and in that time I totaled my car and had to get a new one so I was taking time to pay her pack. Then we came up with the idea that I would just book the hotel and call it even. Well I didn’t book it because I paid my car note which in my opinion wasn’t that big of a deal since I was getting paid 3 days before the trip and would book the hotel then. Looking back it was irresponsible of me to do this and I take full responsibility for it. My friend wasn’t happy and she decided to book a hotel herself. The problem ….it is 1 hour away from where the festival is!!! I told her that and said she didn’t care and we needed a place to stay. Then she text that I now owe er $600 for everything all together. At first I was upset but I understand. The next day we’re on the phone going over details and her mom is in the room while we are talking and my friend makes a joke about me not paying her back and it’s putting her in a bad situation. Then her mother said a comment about me paying her daughter back. My friend then laughs and says that I’m scamming her. At first I let the comment slide because maybe she’s frustrated . Then she shows up at our job to purchase some last minute items for our trip I wasn’t around while she was shopping but I get a phone call from one of our coworkers and she told me my friend brought up that I owe her $600 and that I am scamming her! This coworker is by no means a friend of hers so I am not sure why she thought that telling her was a good idea. I have never been more embarrassed in my entire life. I went to the ATM go get $200 out to give her. I saw her walking out the door and handed her the money. At this point I do not want to go to the festival and I don’t want to be friends with her anymore. I know I wasn’t the best at communicating about booking the hotel and I know I should have planned more but am I the asshole?
