How do you remember exactly what was on a brunch menu two years later?
So there's this thing called "the Internet" and I guess its like, a series of tubes or something, and anyway sometimes you can look up restaurant menus there.
I just did.
I expected a brunch menu at a trendy restaurant would change fairly frequently. I used my tubes too and lol that the pork belly meal is actually called the Basic Bitch. "I'll have the scramble and my daughter will have the basic bitch."
she sounds like she is looking to pick a fight with you, and now she got one, so she can shut you off for some reason. Bringing up these nonsensical things and insulting you so dreadfully last week, this is someone looking to break up.

But she keeps making lunch dates with me!
Because she is trying to get at you like the jerk that she is.
ETA: Agree that this friend's behavior sounds reprehensible. Even if she's wonderful in other ways, that neither excuses nor makes up for this BS. Is she doing this with your other friends too, or just you?
She does this with everybody.
But probably with me the most because I am most accepting (which, I'm sure, to people here, is unthinkable, LOL).

If she's mad about what you said about having kids like Lauren's, her honesty must be a one way street. My oldest couldn't have found something one that menu, but he has ASD and an egg allergy. He also would have been happy with a snack and coloring while the rest of us ate.
I had a friend that liked to remind me of things I said I'd never do if I had kids. She had them before me and while she might be right, it's kind of shitty to say anything at all. It's like she's trying to start a fight.
FTR, I said I would never let my kids sleep in my bed. This was not even said directly to her because her kids didn't either. It was said with another group of women who TOO said the same "I'd never". Anyway, when she found out my youngest was sneaking into our room of course her comment was "Ohhhhhhh, you said you'd NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVER do that. Things change when you have kids dooooon't they?" In a neener neener tone. I wanted to slap that smug look off her face. I mean, of COURSE shit changes but WTF!?

For the last fucking time,
IT'S NOT A TRENDY RESTAURANT.
My standards for trendy are very low. The only restaurant in the town I grew up in was attached to a convenience store.
Lauren has informed me that my Saturday brunch destination no longer has coin-operated bathrooms, and the bathrooms are quite clean because an attendant goes in to tidy up after each toilet use (because lots of homeless folks drop by).
She did confirm, however, that there are still no changing stations. WAH WAH.
Now I just need to figure out a polite way to suggest a different venue. These people are SO EXCITED about this destination. Ugh.

Every party has a pooper. Looks like you found her!
In better news, during our walk to get iced coffee, my friend Lauren said I look thinner! LOL.
I dunno. I see the point you made about people (including me) bitching about their DHs but don't rave on all of the great things, however, I don't like her. LOL. She seems like she doles out some spiteful barbs at you. I still think she's jealous of you.
Also, LOL that this chick is giving you work advice after literally losing friendships because of her personality. This just makes that other post even more rage-tastic.

Being popular amongst your peers is vastly different from being well-regarded by senior management and being promotable.

True but if you are so polarizing among peers, how do her clients perceive her? I guess well if she's doing great at work? I don't know. I guess I just don't think you need advice from someone like her that's all.

Exactly, and she knows she hasn't achieved both. I can see why this night make her a bit jealous is of you, which is why I asked if she's generally a happy person. I see you as being a very 'together' person, someone that people respond to and use as a 'go to' for different reasons. That might intimidate someone who's typically had a hard time cultivating relationships. On one hand, it could indicate that she's gunning for you, but it could also be that she keeps you close because you have the qualities she lacks, and she's trying to improve, but her true nature just slips out at times and jabs at you..

It's cool that she is in your corner as far as promotions, etc. I'm just side-eying her tactics. I wouldn't like to eat lunch with someone who vocally shared opinions about my weight.

Woman, watch your back... This bitch has it out for you! She is jeaaaaaalous! Also, I don't think your last comment was a low blow. It's true, misotiny could go either way- true statement.

I know you guys probably think I'm crazy to continue defending her, but she really is one of my best friends and has done so much for me for so many years.
I feel a strong bond with her because we are both outspoken and brash, and I know that my ways put some people off in a similar manner.
And I am so thankful that my friends love me even though I'm totally rude and crazy. LOL.
So I will keep loving her the best that I can for as long as I can.
Not crazy, I promise! It just makes you an awesome friend.
oh fuck - i'm not reading 5 pages of this. but of course a kid could eat something. even if they didn't want the exact composed dishes, most restaurants (in my city at least), will happily make a plate - for ex. plain scrambled eggs or something.
But, my dear booby, there is friend drama in here! LOL.

Cool. At the very least, it wasn't all...BIRTHDAY TWINNING.
