I don't know why she mentioned to me her party or even spoke to me in the first place.
her metal, she gets priority....i don't see the issue here. Your sob story doesn't change anything. I've been bumped after sitting on the jumpseat for someone that showed up last minute on their own metal....it's part of commuting and in my opinion you are 100% in the wrong here. Could she have handled it better? sure....but she's more entitled to that j/s than you are.
