Advice?

Next year I am going on a school trip abroad with my religious studies class. A few of my friends are coming also. I know that I am going to be sticking beside my closer friend , who is quite an anxious girl, however she doesn't like one of my less closer friends who can come across as quite rude some times. We have to pick the rooms we are sleeping in and I said to the other friend she could come in a room with us as I am not against her and I was unaware my close friend was uncomfortable around her. I don't want to put people in uncomfortable situations but I also don't want to be disrespectful as I have no problem with anyone being in the same room as us. I'm at a loss of what to do because I don't want anyone to be upset.

Sometimes when thrown together 24 hours a day on a trip etc the true dynamics of friends/relationships become apparent.. You have already committed to your rude friend.. To reverse out of this could cause problems.. You seem protective towards your anxious friend. See how the cards fall.. Try not to assume too much responsibility for other people, worry more about yourself for the moment. See how it pans out..

Talk it out as a group before hand. And remember you are all adults. You don’t have to like each other. You just have to get along. Adults should be able to do that.

@kate21 that's what I mean I get along with everyone or if I don't I'm still civil but I'm not sure if it's the same for everyone ( I'm actually not quite an adult yet lol , I'm 16)
