Sure, but I'm saying her expectations were COMPLETELY NORMAL. His dismissal of her feelings and public rejection of her in front of his friends was extremely unkind.
I've been on both sides of this arrangement, and I can say without fail that being invited to do something by a guy I liked, then clearly rejected by him in front of his friends is gross and disappointing. I get that confrontation is hard, but it's what adults do.
If it were her here telling this story, we'd tell her that while her expectations may not have been ideal, that was a jerk move on his part.
I believe that, ZenMe. Sorry.
