Thanks, guys. I do definitely think there was a lack of good communication, and that it played a part, and I keep kicking myself for not noticing my friend wasn't having a great time. Though hindsight, and all that. In the moment, she seemed perfectly okay. For sure though, this is only half the story. I'm actually upset that I dont really know what the other half is, as I'm left confused and hurt wondering where it all went wrong.

The part I thought was weird was that she told my mother-in-law that she didn't feel welcome the entire time, and actually didn't mention the casino trip, or me being gone for the evening, and I can only wonder at what made her feel that way. I think Saturday was more of a last straw kind of thing, but I was never aware of what could have been building up to that. I just have no idea.

To clear it up a little, as it might be important for understanding, when i went out with my husband, it was at 10 pm. I also am in a one bedroom apt, and my friend was sleeping on the sofa bed in the living room. I HAD gone out of the bedroom a few times since we got back, to see if my friend was up from her nap yet and wanted to hang out, but each time I was, she appaeared to still be sleeping. I do agree that leaving a note was probably a good idea, but since we went out at 10 pm AND she was asleep, I didnt think it would be necessary.

What's hurting me the most, I think, is the abrupt disappearance. She was then one moment, and gone the next, and all lines of communication between us are closed. I did send her a long apologetic text from my husband's phone, since she didn't have his number, and will write her a letter.

At the moment, I'm not angry at her for any of this, really. Just hurt and extremely confused.
