Why did my friends snub me?
We had 3 women friends come over to help us load a moving truck. Afterwards, my partner and I took them all out for dinner. After we paid, they all looked at my partner and thanked her, but never glanced at me, even though they know our money was shared. This really hurt my feelings and I cannot account for it and it really hurt my feelings. Am I overreacting or did they just make a mistake that I am turning into something that it is not. There were no problems during the loading or at dinner. Everything seemed normal. Why would they do this?
I am not that good socially, so I need your advice.

I guess you could say that they are not so good socially : ) because they should have made a point to thank both of you. However, I am sure that they meant absolutely nothing by it, did not mean to slight you, have no idea they hurt you. I think that I would most likely do the exact same thing. The person that pays the bill, you thank them, you direct your attention and words to them (I mean, I would likely do that, because I am not so good socially either) but internally of course I would be thankful to both of you. I'm sure I would do that without thinking about if the partner feels slighted. Also, your friends (I assume) were happy to help, enjoyed the dinner, and went home feeling that everything was good. Please don't take it personally. It's so hard for us to know what someone else is thinking/feeling/expects and that causes so many unnecessary hurt feelings.

3 women well well. Are they her friends, yours or a mix? Has a bearing. In any case they did spend their time helping you did they not? Did you thank them?? or your partner?
Personally without all the facts, suggest you just put it down to exprience and move on.

Let it go, they thanked your partner because she broke out the cash. Try not to let their ignorance make you feel bad. In the grand scheme of things this is not a big issue.....the fact that hey came over and helped you move is a nice gesture and shows they care about you...dont let this get in the way of the real picture
