I accidentally offended my new friend...?

I just moved to a new city and made some new friends about a week ago.



So when we were meeting for dinner, my friend "Jessica"'s car broke down. I went to pick her up, we had dinner, then I drove her to get anti-freeze and back to her car to fix it. After we got "Jessica" all set up, she drove home, I dropped my other friend "Natalie" off and then I headed home.



When I was almost home, "Jessica" calls me again and says her car has broken down on the highway and could I come pick her up. I told her that I don't know where she is, I am almost home, and as soon as I get home I'll text her to get the address and google the directions. In the meantime, I suggested that she call "Natalie," since she might be closer and could probably pick her up faster than me. "Jessica" agrees. Then when I get home, I text her to let her know and ask for the address, and she responds back that Natalie is coming to get her, and as far as I know everything worked out.



It's been almost a week, and now "Natalie" tells me that I pissed off "Jessica" by refusing to come get her. I talked to "Jessica" during the week, and it didn't seem like she was mad. But I want to set things right, and make sure that one of the new friends I just made isn't secretly pissed off at me. How can I bring this up with her?I accidentally offended my new friend...?
No one is pissed off at you , they are both seeing how much of a friend you are really going to be by asking you to do things to help them out . Neither one of them really know you that well and are testing you out. Just tell them next time that you really want to be friends with them but from now on, do not use you as a taxi service and respect that and if they have a issue with their car perhaps it would be best to get it towed somewhere so no one will get offended that way and no one is being put out , You are new there , how are you supposed to know the streets and their locations? I think honestly that both of these girls are using you hunny . That happens a lot with the newbies, i know you want friends but something is telling me that these two are backstabbers. So watch out.
Just ask her. Don't beat around the bush. I'm sure she'll appreciate your honesty.I accidentally offended my new friend...?
I think this is all immaturity. Or maybe jealousy. The way you tell the story, it doesn't sound like you did anything wrong. It doesn't sound like you 'refused' to go back and get her..After all, you sent for the address so you could go back and find her. If she is upset, there seems to be no basis for it.



Is there any way that Natalie could be making it up? Is she jealous of you and Jessica?



I would bring it up in conversation, indirectly. Don't come right out and ask her Are you mad at me? but say something like, "it sure is a good thing that Natalie knew where you were to come back and get you. Maybe you guys can show me around so I can learn directions around here....



hope that helps...I accidentally offended my new friend...?
