Ask them why, which may encourage them to take responsibility for hurting you. Then look into going on your own or with a group
I am a retired North American woman who is a huge anglophile. I have visited England a couple of times and always want to return. The only thing stopping me is finances. A solo trip anywhere these days is beyond my budget. I have two sisters living on the other side of the country and we stay in touch via a chat group. I have considered asking one or both of them if they’d like to visit England with me but there are various reasons I haven’t.
Recently in that chat I said something about wanting to go to England so much that I sometimes watch YouTube videos of bus trips around the country. In reply, one of the sisters tells me that she is planning a trip to England for her and our other sister. My jaw dropped. It felt terribly insensitive. There seemed to be no thought of including me in the trip or how I might feel about being left out. I have said nothing. I don’t want to rain on their parade, but I also feel as if I now know what they think of me.
