How do I tell her she’s uninvited?? HELP!

Ali

So I’ve got myself in a bit of a dilemma. A= girl who isn’t invited. B = girl hosting the party).

So recently A dropped out of school and is pursuing an course at TAFE ( TAFE is like Uni but cheaper and easier to complete). So I told B that A was coming to her party. She was like “why’s she coming, I didn’t invite her”. Which I was shocked about because we all used to be so close. B said “just because you two are closer, doesn’t mean we are. We haven’t talking since end of term last year”. So I understood but I was still surprised.

Last week B was discussing the party in the group chat, which A was in. So I’m not sure if she knew about it. So I asked A if she was coming and she said “I didn’t know she was having a party, didn’t think I was invited” this was last week Friday.

Now I don’t know how to tell her she’s not invited. I’ve been stressing over this for the last few hours. I don’t want to tell A that I’m not going, but end up going because that will make me feel extremely guilty. I’m seriously stuck, I don’t even know what to do.

If anyone can offer some advise that would be great. 😩

UPDATE:

I was extremely nervous to tell her, but I sucked it up and told her she wasn’t invited. She’s definitely hurt, but she’s going to her boyfriends show tomorrow night. I’m so conflicted right now because they’re both my best friends, it makes me feel so guilty that she can’t come. I just want to scream and cry right now 🥺
