the right thing ??
i think it's not your problem now, she made a BIG mistake, do you think she thought at least just one minute about "the right thing to do ?"
... you'll see if this person who was your friend can do something now to help you to go to this show, and after that you'll know who she is really ;
for the others shows, just try to ignore her ! i'm sorry, that's all i can say

I'd feel quite betrayed, especially since it's something as big as this!

Who's card did the husband use? Also, if he specifically went to buy YOU a ticket, the ticket should be yours. If Friend B wasn't clear about expecting a ticket, then Friend A shouldn't feel obligated to her. Also, Friend B is not a real friend if she'd give up the friendship over a concert ticket. If, however, Friend A led Friend B to believe that she WOULD buy her a ticket, I can see why Friend B is putting up a fight.

It might just be a case of the squeaky wheel gets the oil. Whoever pitches the biggest bitch wins.

I wouldn't be so hard on her. It seems to me that she's caught between two friends and she's doing her best to keep everyone happy. I've been in this situation before, and at the time, it seems that the best way to deal with the situation is to side with the person who will complain the least. Hopefully in time she will realise that this is not the best way, and that people who consider they're tenth Jovi show more important than friendship are people who are not worth giving the time of day.

Then again I don't know the ins and outs of the situation, but I would be more pissed off with Friend B than Friend A.

And by the way, you did good
Dave, that's true...but this same friend A is trying to get friend B to go to Europe to see Bon Jovi when I know very well that friend A doesn't have the money to go, and friend B would have to pay costs. Doesn't seem likely that she would make her mad, does it? Do you know why she is fighting for this ticket? She wants to make it to 10 shows. Is that weird or what?
Aha, now this makes things more interesting!! To be honest it's hard to give advice over the internet when you don't know the people involved. While I'm reading this, I'm making assumptions about the two friends that may very well not be true. I think you're gonna have to talk to Friend A, and let her know what you think. In my experience, this is always the best way, and I hope that you can sort this out as soon as possible. I hope my advice as helped in some way, and if it hasn't then you know who not to ask in the future

LOL I'm really not that great at reading between the lines -- it's just that I've had a lot of experiences with girls like Friend B (and have had to deal with their demands for concert tickets to the point where I almost had to assume responsibility for getting their tickets to a gig I wasn't even going to -- ) and know how incredibly awkward, unfair, and uncomfortable the entire situation can be for both you and Friend A (of course, I'm assuming that Friend B can sleep at night now, knowing that she has her 2nd row ticket and will make her coveted 10th show, and therefore has nothing to worry about -- of course!) I don't blame you for being pissed off. If I were Friend A, I would tell Friend B that my husband changed his mind and wanted the ticket (since he technically BOUGHT it and was PHYSICALLY THERE) and then secretly give it to you. But that's just my sneaky mind Keep us updated, and good luck!

Have you ever considered that maybe friend A and friend B have known each other for a very long time and maybe you and friend A have only known each other for 3 or 4 months. Has it ever crossed your mind that maybe you don't know the whole truth about this. Have you even talked to friend B at all. I bet you haven't. I bet friend B did not put up a fight or even say some of the things about you that you like to say about her. I think that you are unfairly judging someone that you don't really know. by going on this board and complaing about a freakn ticket you have shown us how childish you are. Before you make a judgement you should take to everyone involved. Friend B might be getting a different story then you. Who cares what they pay for and who they pay for. GROW UP!!!!!

Sorry! But I am not friend B. I get my own tickets and don't worry about someone else getting them for me.
