DEAR DEIDRE: MY friend cares more about Taylor Swift than she does about me.
She really let me down when I was sick, and now I’m not sure if I want to be mates anymore.
We’re both 17-year-old girls, and met on a fan forum. She lives in London and I live in Hertfordshire.
We grew really close. When Taylor Swift announced her tour, she asked if I wanted to go with her, and stay at her parents’ house.
I got the train down to London and she met me, but during the gig I felt really unwell.
I managed to make it through, but wanted to go straight home after. She refused, so I had to hang around, feeling dreadful.
Now she keeps moaning that I spoiled her night.
DEIDRE SAYS: Friends should look out for each other.
Your mate was clearly excited about seeing Taylor Swift, but she should have been more sympathetic when you were ill.
Moaning about it now is selfish and immature.
If you want to stay friends, tell her how you feel. My support pack, Standing Up For Yourself, should help.
