Who's the drama queen?

This is my advice which you can take or leave alone and not an attempt to tell you what you should absolutely do.

I believe
Always say how you feel in the best possible manor.
Instead of saying it's okay and I understand say something like That's very dissapointing as I was looking forward to spending time with you, can we arrange another time when you are free?

It's obvious it upset you and why wouldn't it?
My opion is that lying makes things awkard and uncomfortable and eventually you become restenful if you feel you have to do it to protect another's feelings on a constant basis.


If it becomes a pattern of her giving excuses and not showing up,then it's on her.

A red flag,I picked up on, is that she had to tell you that she cried and you made her feel guilty.
Shift blaming , perhaps ?
She broke the engagement.
She apologized and once forgiven, that should always be the end of it.
Adding you made me feel guilty and cry is assignment of gulit to you for being upset by her actions.
It may not be conscious on her part she does this.
I am not saying you should end the friendship over it.

Whatever the case it's best to be honest and to realize that you shouldn't be expected to hide or lie about your feelings. (Doing so in a respectful manor, of course )

{@glasshalfemptyguy] 😞what a shame you may of been disappointed but you took it well . some people to go into a guilt trip easily which the case in this instance then it makes you feel bad then

It wasn’t nice to cancel on you with such short notice just to have dinner with a friend, but it’s not the worst thing. Chalk it up to a misunderstanding

Even if she double booked the date and time, and honestly forgot, she still chose her friend over you. That’s okay if you are okay with not being her first choice.

Sounds more like a misunderstanding and hurt feelings. That's not what I would necessarily call a drama queen. I have an example but best not use it. ;-)

The cancellation was lousy, but your response was antagonistic, then her guilt tripping you later was added manipulative drama.

Well, you just said how it is. 🤷‍♀️
