/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I can talk about a few of these now since it's been years
>huge con
>spend most of the time in closet cosplay since I wasn't interested in cosplay much anymore
>reserve sunday for lolita
>bought pricey tkts for lolita tea party and told friends whom I was carpooling w/ in advance this was the one thing I wanted to do
>put up with their crazy shit like trying to finish cosplays in the room
>having their stuff thrown all over the place
>getting too early at the con lines and having to stand outside for hours bc of their paranoia
>I'm not nitpicky so I was fine as long as I got my tea party
>sunday comes
>cosplay friends don't want to stay bc they're "bored" and want to go home but too bad hoes, you promised me!
>attend my tea party and have great time
>want to stay for group photo
>get text from friends midway through
>"Anon we're leaving NOW to beat con traffic, meet us at x position."
>worded it in such a way that I thought they were waiting for me
>...god fucking dammit
>apologize to new friends at tea party, they're shocked my carpool is forcing me to leave the event I paid extra for
>walk outside to meet carpool at exit of parking lot
>traffic for days
>don't see them
>an hour passes
>feet hurt in heels so I say fuck it and sit in the grass
>two hours pass
>lots of people honking at me and asking questions because I'm in lolita
>see the lolitas from the tea party leave the event
>WHERE THE FUCK ARE THESE PEOPLE?!
>get so angry I start walking down the lot of traffic to find their asses
>find them stuck in the parking lot traffic
>they're pissy bc they're stuck, which they would have been anyway
>I'm visibly upset, they act like they did nothing wrong and that *I* was in the wrong
>I undress from lolita right in front of the damn parking lot with no fucks given
>entire ride home they act like I overreacted so it was awkward as fuck
>I wanted to cry
>still friends w/ them but I can't have entirely good memories about this con for that reason
