AITA for not going on a weekend away with my friend?

So my friend rang me yesterday saying that she has a consultation abroad and would like to make the most of it by exploring. She asked me to go with her because her mum can’t make it. The reasons I don’t want to go are: * she always gives me last minute notice - she wants to go in two weeks. when I suggest to go out she’s “busy” and it’s always meeting on her terms. * she sucks the energy out of me and can literally bang on about her problems for hrs and hrs without asking me how I am. I feel like her counsellor and not a friend. I have my problems too! * I’m in my first trimester and worry my symptoms could worsen in a couple of weeks - I’m not ready to tell her I’m pregnant and don’t want her to realise if I do end up going. She wasn’t that happy when I announced my engagement and tried to put me off getting married two days before my big day so can you imagine how she’d react to my pregnancy I made an excuse and now she’s saying it’s “typical”. I changed the subject and asked if she could go with anyone else.

She doesn't sound like a very good friend at all! I'd say you can't go and say you can't get the time off work or something

Definitely doesn't sound like a good, supportive friend at all. I would just make an excuse up or just tell her the truth, and if she's still self-centered, then I think you should think about your friendship because a friendship is both ways not just one way and it seems by what your saying it's whatever she wants and what she wants to do.
