The story

omg I don’t know why i’m on here I’m at band practice rn so I can’t actually talk face to face with someone about this but BASICALLY. a couple weeks back on my birthday my friend got PISS drunk despite me not wanting her to at this other friends house and she ended up throwing up everywhere for like five hours. it sucked. she said she’d make it up to me and hasn’t, and then half an hour ago had a go at me for being pissed at her all the time with no explanation. shes so weird. im so weird. our relationship is so fucking weird. guitarist and drummer tension ig. and she just talks like everything is normal but it’s not but how would she know??? I suck at communication and the conversation or her having a go at me ended like 30 minutes ago i cant just bring it up now and UGH oh my god I feel like an idiot. id go more into depth but I can’t be bothered. sos for terrible grammar im not reading this back

Bro, I totally get it! 🤣 Like, band mates can be a whole mess sometimes, especially when you’re supposed to be vibing out to some sick tunes and then drama hits, right? Been there, done that! A while back, my mate went a bit off the rails at another friend’s gig and it was a circus, but we laughed it off like crazy later and got over it. It’s all about those weird phases, ya know? 😂 Sometimes people just don’t get the memo on boundaries after a sitch like that – you just gotta smack ‘em with the truth, eventually. Communication is a beast we all gotta tame, dude. You two will probably laugh about this someday. Hang in there! 😆 It’s gonna be fine, chill vibes only, you got this!

wow, sounds like you're carrying a lot of baggage from that night. maybe you're overreacting a bit here. i get being upset, but everyone slips up sometimes. "she ended up throwing up everywhere," sure, that's annoying, but is it worth dragging out the drama? one time, my friend ruined my favorite shirt while partying, but we just laughed it off and moved on; people make mistakes, it's no biggie. try talking to her when you’re both calm. you'll probably feel better after clearing the air. maybe let loose and enjoy your band practice; stop worrying so much. you'll both be fine. 🤷‍♂️

I completely understand your frustration. It's tough to deal with friends who don't acknowledge their behavior. You two obviously have some unresolved tension; communication is critical in clearing the air, right? It's not fun dealing with someone who acts like nothing happened! Remain patient and be ready to talk when the time feels right. Good luck with your band practice! 😊

dude, it sounds like you’re dealing with some serious "band dynamics" fallout here. i get it; her getting "piss drunk" and turning your birthday into a puke fest is infuriating. 😒 but holding onto the grudge might not be the best move; people mess up, right? i had a bassist once who completely derailed a gig by showing up two hours late – talk about unprofessional. we were all mad, but eventually hashed it out. maybe she doesn’t realize how offbeat things are because no one’s laid it down for her yet. you should consider telling her directly how the whole thing made you feel. it might clear the air, or at least prevent another meltdown next time. just saying.

man, that situation sounds like a complete trainwreck 🤦‍♂️. there's nothing worse than a bandmate who gets way too wasted and ruins the vibe, especially on your birthday. i can totally see why you're fed up with her nonsense. you’re right to be miffed, especially since she hasn't bothered to make it up to you. it’s like basic band etiquette, dude. people need to get their act together instead of pretending everything's cool. honestly, it's hard to see how things will change if she keeps acting like that without any consequences. maybe lay down the law and let her know what's up. keep it real, and don’t let her off the hook this time.

sounds like a rough situation, but maybe you're blowing it out of proportion a bit. everyone makes mistakes, and it seems like maybe there's room for understanding here. friendships get messy sometimes, especially with bandmate tensions. good communication will definitely help. maybe try talking it out when things are calmer. keeping things cool might make it easier to sort out. you both can move on from this.

Yo creo que el problema venía de Antes porque me supongo que todos alguna vez nos emborrachamos y hicimos alguna Cagada

Y ya Enojarte tanto porque se descontrolo! hay gente que se agarra a las piñas con cualquiera, yo creo que No deberías esperar Nada a cambio.

Pero creo que ahí deberías hablarlo bien y decirle lo que no te gusto y ya está.

it sounds like that birthday incident really skewed the vibe with your friend and left you feeling pretty rattled; dealing with that kind of aftermath can be jarring, especially when it comes to bandmates. it seems like this situation has created a bit of an awkward power dynamic between you two, and that's totally understandable. maybe try looking at it as a chance to address not just this episode but also any underlying issues in your friendship—sometimes unspoken things can pile up, ya know? it's tricky because i get how bringing it up cold turkey feels weird after some time has passed, but you might find revisiting the topic gives both of you some clarity on where things stand; ultimately, maintaining harmony within the group is crucial for everyone involved. good luck sorting through all this!

Honestly, it sounds like you're making a mountain outta a molehill here. Sure, your friend messed up and got wasted on your birthday, but everyone has dumb moments. If you suck at communication, that's only half the problem right there! 🤷‍♀️ Maybe give her a break; we all have our off days. Talk it out when you've cooled down or just let it go – life's too short to hold grudges over puking incidents!
