Her Friend Called Her Selfish After She Said She Wasn’t Allowed To Announce Her Pregnancy At Her Birthday Party
Are you friends or relatives with someone who always needs to be the center of attention?
It can be quite annoying to be near those people, especially when trying to celebrate something unique to you.
One woman upset her friend after telling her she couldn’t announce her pregnancy at her birthday party and eventually uninvited her.
She has a friend named Leah who loves being in the spotlight. Since she’s quite introverted, she never really minded Leah taking up a lot of attention. That is, until now.
Her birthday is coming up, and she’s been very excited about her birthday party. She’s struggled with depression over the last few years and wants to have a big gathering with friends and family who have been there to help her get better.
One of the people she invited to her party was Leah, who quickly became an inconvenience.
After sending out invites, she made a group chat with all her guests. She told them what kind of food she ordered for the party: pizza and KFC because they’re her favorites.
Everyone was excited to hear about the food except for Leah, who sent a message saying she was eating a vegan diet and couldn’t have any of it.
Leah sent messages saying she was disrespectful for not asking about her dietary restrictions beforehand.

Then, Leah texted her privately and told her she discriminated against her for being a vegan. She told Leah she’d buy her some food from a local vegan restaurant and didn’t receive a ‘thank you.’
She had hoped that would be the end of Leah’s antics, but it was only the beginning.
The day before the party, Leah sent a message in their group chat that said she couldn’t wait to see everyone because she had some exciting news to share.
“Confused about this, I messaged her personally and asked what this was about, as I didn’t quite understand why she had to announce it on my birthday,” she recalled.
She was angry at Leah for treating her birthday party group chat like it was all meant for her.
Then, Leah told her she planned to announce her pregnancy at her birthday party.
“I was shocked,” she said.
“Not only did I feel like she was purposefully trying to ruin my birthday, but I was even more hurt [that] she didn’t even ask me first. After all, it was my birthday party. I told her I did not want her to announce it on my birthday and that I found it really rude of her to not have asked me first.”
Leah became furious and went on a big rant about how the birthday party was her “only opportunity” to announce her pregnancy in a special way because everyone they knew would be there. Leah considered it to be perfect timing.
Leah then started attacking her, telling her she was a selfish, bad friend for ruining her announcement plan.
Finally, she told Leah she could no longer come to the party. She was too stressed out from trying to please her, so she also blocked Leah’s number.
For the rest of the day, Leah’s family members began contacting her. They sent her messages telling her she was selfish, rude, and narcissistic for what she did to Leah. Although she was really mad at Leah, those texts made her feel guilty.
Should she feel guilty for uninviting Leah to her party, or was it the right thing to do?
