Today, I was excited because a friend had added me to a new Facebook chat consisting of my tight circle of friends from last year's summer camp. I then saw when the chat had been created. They kept me out of the chat for almost an entire year before deciding to add me. FML

Alaskalex_fml tells us more.

Hey, this is OP. The camp is in Washington, and it looked like all the people in the chat were the campers from Washington, so my guess is that they created the chat just for the Washingtonians and started to add in people as camp time drew closer. The reason why it hurts a little is that I've had a pretty rough year with depression- I switched schools and ended up having no friends for about half the year- and it would have been nice to be able to talk with them and get some support, even though they lived so far away. I haven't said anything about it and I won't, there's no point in making a big deal out of something so little. To #13- I did the same thing many a time in order to make myself feel better about being the youngest and not being able to do the things my older siblings did. #22- Lol, okay, whatever you say. You seem a lot more invested in this than I am. #44- Yes, we have summer camps in Alaska, though I was referring to one in Washington. Contrary to popular belief, there exists four seasons in Alaska, not just winter.

At least you didn't get left out of a family chat...2 years it took them to remember they have a sister...

Aww, man. Sometimes people can be really cruel. Keep you head up.

Maybe they're not really your friends then

That's shitty. Wouldn't call them friends if they do things like that, but that's just me. :/ Maybe there's a reason? Either way, real friends don't exclude other friends.

Getting arsey over small things like Facebook chat looses more friends in the long run.

Personally, I don't see why you care.

group chats are overrated anyways

You're worrying about nothing. People have a right to communicate with each other without making everything they do inclusive. Be thankful included you now. Your glass should be half full now not half empty, maybe this attitude is why they kept out of the loop for year, hoping that you matured

The amount of weight people put on stuff like Facebook in their lives is astonishing to me.

good thing is you can read ALL their past conversations and see if anyone is talking shit behind your back

I do apologize because I know what it feels like to be left out, but I'm not sure you should be so quick to say "**** my life". I'm sure you have plenty to be happy about regardless.

The chat group may have been started a long time ago, but with only 2 or 3 people. And possibly they didn't use it again until recently. You may not be the only person that was recently added.
