I'd like to get some opinions about something from others before I react to something cause I'm not sure if I'm overreacting.

For the past year and 1/2 I have been taking Tae Kwon Do lessons. During this time I really have not invited anyone to any of my test or tournaments because this is something I'm doing for myself and its not really something I'm doing to show off. Plus no one really seems that interested in what I'm doing anyway with the exception of maybe 2 people.

So recently a friend of mine out of the blue asked me to tell her when my next tournament was cause she wanted to go(she is not one of the 2 people mentioned above) I told her I didnt know when that was but I'd probably have a belt testing soon which is pretty much the same thing as a tournament except we dont get medals. She said let her know. So last week I told her that I should be testing in the next couple of weeks before xmas and told her it would be on a Thurs night but I wasnt sure which one. She said cool, and to let her know when I find out.

So I found out it will be next Thurs so I text her and tell her "belt testing is next Thurs the 13th at 7:30 pm"

She texted me back hours later stating "cool. Remind me"

———? My reaction:

First it pisses me off. She is the one who asked me cause she wanted to go. So if she wanted to go so bad why tf do I need to remind her? If she wants to go she needs to tell me she's going to be there and put it in her damn calendar. Set up her own damn reminders cause I'm not her damn secretary. Dont act all casual about it cause when ppl say "remind me" that means they really dont want to go and they are hoping that the person will forget to remind them. Right? Cause if you really want to go do something you'd make sure you know when and where.

Am I right or am I overreacting?

Well you didn’t technically overreact yet since you’ve only thought of reacting

I wouldn’t remind her personally and I’d probably file her ass permanently in my flake file and never invite her to anything again ...maybe even forget her birthday or next important personal event in her life

But don’t take my advice I’m petty af

And this is why I have 2 friends

AGAIN, COMMON COURTESY! Duh! We all have cell phones with a calendar reminder, hells bells EVEN an Alarm! Duh! Not your fault. It's JUST as if you snail mailed an invitation to your graduation/party/wedding etc. And she writes back, "Remind me" DUH! Major no no on her part!
