Am I overreacting?

[Z Diggity Dog]

Awhile back I had asked my friend to check out this documentary. When I followed up on it later, to ask if she checked it out she said "no I'm sorry I haven't". I actually followed up three or four times with her and each time her answer was the same.

Last week I let her know about a free book I enjoyed and asked her to check it out. When I followed up with her today and asked if she has had a chance to check it out she responds "I'm sorry I haven't". In her response she never said that she would check it out. She just said that she hasn't checked it out

So anyways I think I'm done with this person and am going to ghost her from this point forward. Am I overreacting? Seems like she can't be bothered to check anything out that interests me.

It’s not if it’s how you feel I say do it

Thank you.

Something like that depends on a lot of factors. Does she have a job or depression?

Sometimes if people they work a lot or are depressed they might not want to watch things like an assignment but her still replying to your texts might mean she just wants to talk without the pressure.

If you tell me your documentary or recommended books I will check them out. I actually visit the library frequently

It sounds like you are angry that she is not interested in the film or the book you recommended. That's not a great reason to end your friendship if you have other interests in common. But maybe it means that you don't, or that this other person is not very interested in keeping your friendship. You should find out by talking to her. Maybe she is too polite to say "those things don't interest me."

I hear what you're saying but it literally would have taken her 30 seconds to a minute to read the basic description of the book.

Thanks for responding. As far as pressuring her I literally just provided her with a link to a short description of the book that would have taken her 30 seconds to a minute to read. It's like she couldn't be bothered with it.

Sorry for taking so long to respond. It's called The United States of Secrets.
