AITA for apologizing and explaining to my bf’s friends after unintentionally hiding them from my IG stories?

Hello! So for context, my boyfriend (26M) and I (26F) have been hanging out with his friends since our first year of dating.

They’re pretty chill but the issue started when I had hidden them from my IG stories a few months ago.

I honestly don’t remember exactly why they were hidden, except we’ve had conflicts before, maybe I hid them but forgot to undo it.

Regardless I didn’t really have any bad intentions in hiding my stories from them.

Anyway, they had found out about it because my boyfriend had reposted a photo I posted that day.

They felt offended.

His friends were questioning in our groupchat why they couldn’t see anything.

That was when I found out that they were hidden from my IG stories.

I apologized and made a joke about how I didn’t realize they were hidden.

After that they started ignoring me on our socials, ignoring my messages in pm and in our groupchat.

I was dealing with so many things in my personal life too, so I wasn’t able to really talk to them after that.

Things changed between them, but talking didn’t help.

I recently decided to finally talk to them about them giving me the cold shoulder, cause at the time, I didn’t really think it was that big of a deal to be upset about.

So I never thought that was the issue that they had with me. But it was.

And so, I tried to explain myself and apologize for hurting their feelings, and reassure them that I wasn’t trying to hide anything.

They kind of left me on read and then the next thing I know, they all left the group chat, leaving my boyfriend and I in there.

They didn’t approve of her apology.

My boyfriend had talked to them after this incident and basically they had an issue with how I apologized?

They thought it was weird of me to explain what I was going through.

They just wanted me to apologize and that was it, because to them they felt like I was guilt-tripping them.

Like I wasn’t allowing them to be hurt by what I did, and was making them feel bad.

AITA?

They sound exhausting.

What did Reddit have to say?

Someone shares their POV.

I agree.

She apologized and they still want more.

Something to consider.

Another reader chimes in.

They actually started it.

They’re acting like she sold a family heirloom or something.

Dramatic friendships are the worst.
