Just another long story.

Friend 1 thinks of plan A
Friend 2 thinks it's cool
Friend 1 needs a partner for plan A
Friend 2 wants it
Friend 1 tells me the plan
Friend 2 feels insecure if she can do it
Friend 1 tells me she really really wants it
Friend 2 asks me if she can do it
I assure Friends 1 and 2 that they can do it
Friend 1 decides I should organize plan A
Friend 2 agrees
I help organize plan A

(a few days gap)

Friend 1 thinks it's brilliant
Friend 2 thinks it's hard
I ask if they want to pursue it
Friend 1 and 2 says yes
I work on it some more

(a few days gap)

Friend 1 says it's okay so far but she's losing faith
Friend 2 says she's there
I urge them to go for it because they obviously want it

(a few days gap)

Friend 1 is really excited
Friend 2 tells me she thought of plan B and wants to cancel plan A
I try to convince her not to change plans for Friend 1's sake
Friend 2 says she really wants plan B
I ask her what about Friend 1's plan A
Friend 2 says swhe thinks Friend 1 can still make it alone
I inform Friend 1 about the change of plan
Friend 1 is sad and wants to cancel everything
I try to convince Friend 1 she can still do it
Friend 1 doesn't think so
I tell Friend 2 not to feel guilty about it
I ask Friend 1 to understand Friend 2's change of heart
Friend 1 feels bad about it
I try to console her but fail
Friend 2 is excited about plan B and hints I should organize it too
I disliked the idea (still guilty about Friend 1) and told Friend 2 that I won't be organizing anything for a while

Friend 2 tells Friend 3 about Plan B asking if Friend 3 can help him with it
Friend 3 says I'm the one who's good at organizing and advises Friend 2 to ask me to organize it
Friend 2 says I'm in a bad mood and probably won't help
Friend 3 asks Friend 2 why
Friend 2 says I'm angry at her because she backed out on plan A but she really really wanted plan B
Friend 3 asks if Friend 2 really wanted plan A
Friend 2 says no and that I only persuaded her so Friend 1 can do plan A
Friend 3 says I should understand that not everything goes my way
Friend 2 says she's guilty because of Friend 1
Friend 3 tells Friend 2 not to be guilty because she just pursued what she really wanted and that Friend 1 and I should understand that
Friend 3 accidentally forwards me the above email conversation.
I didn't tell Friend 3 about the mistake.

Friend 1 seems to be avoiding all of us
I really really want to help her with plan A but she's given up on it already
Friend 2 and 3 doesn't know I read the emails
I don't want Friend 3 to think I'm bullying Friend 2 or something
Friend 2 seems to really really want Plan B
I can't figure out how to react to Friend 2 without her thinking I don't support her to have what she wants
Friend 1 doesn't know about the email conversation between Friend 2 and 3
I hate dramas, so I didn't say anything to all of them about it.

I don't know how to deal with this so I just wrote this silly journal entry.
