One of (my 2) housmates has recently moved away, but is back visiting this weekend and wants to meet me for dinner soon. Problem is, I live with another girl also, and my friend doesn't want this other girl to come to dinner (The 3 of us lived together but she has issues with my present housemate, which my present housemate is unaware of!) - long story! So anyways, Can anyone give me any advise on how i can go and meet my friend for dinner, without looking like im leaving my other housemate out, I'm rubbish at lying, but she will also ask where i'm going. (If i tell her she'l will wonder why she's not invited) and I don't wanna be put in that situation. Any advise?......

Just tell her you are going out for dinner. Your housemate doesnt have to go everywhere with you does she? I;m sure you are old enough to just be truthful with her. And she is old enough to not have to follow you around yout whole life

Hi, Unfortunately, I have been put in this situation before and it's not at all nice. In the end I went out with my friend and when the other friend asked where I had been, I just said that I bumped in to so and so and we ended up going out for lunch. That way, the friend who hasn't been invited didn't feel as upset because she saw it as a last minute arrangement. I hope this makes sense. Other people who have not been in this situation may say "just tell your friend the truth" but believe me it's not as easy as that so I sympathise with you! x

Believe me where I live its hard not to be in that situation. Basically if people start being petty and saying the other one cant come than I say well you either want to see me or you dont. I invite everyone out and they have to get on simple as. Just tell her to get over it
