Do I have right to be mad at my friend or am I overreacting?

    My best friend and I were always on about going to Rihanna if she came back to Ireland so when we heard she is here in June we made arrangements to get tickets. He also said to another friend that I wouldn't talk to as much, that they have to go to. So she rang him last night to get presale tickets today and he text me to say she was getting his ticket this morning. I rang him and said I though I was getting them and he said ok Il tell er not to get mine so. Then this morning I couldnt get presale as I didn't have a password and it wouldn't work for me so I left for work. When I got here I had six missed called and a text saying "Marie got my ticket". He now has it all over Facebook and Twitter and I am so mad with him as I think its a bit selfish and he doesn't care. Have I a right to be mad over this or am I overreacting?

    Overreacting, what does it matter who bought his ticket? Just get your own ticket when they go on general sale on Friday

    Yep, you're over-reacting. Also he tried to get in contact with you. He was prob worried he would miss out on ticket with good reason- as you clearly would have let him down.

    She got his ticket, so what? Just go and enjoy yourselves and stop dwelling on unimportant petty things such as who did the transaction for the tickets.

    You are really over-reacting. In any event you may not have been able to get the ticket for him. get your own and go to the concert.

    I'm not sure I understand the story,
    Are you angry because Marie went ahead and got him ticket and if you had been successful you would've ended up paying for a spare?
    Or did he know you hadn't been able and got her to get him one , effectively leaving you out of something you'd planned together?
    If the concert is seated or the bought tickets in one area, you might not be able to get tickets in the same area so I think I would feel a little deflated by that personally.

    I don't think it matters if you got standing tickets but I can see why you'd be annoyed if they got seated tickets.

    It is a bit annoying alright, but did you phone him to tell him you couldn't get the tickets presale the minute you realized it? Why didn't you get his 6 calls? He obviously made the effort to let you know that he got his ticket. He probably thought that you got yours too. Maybe his other friend had his ticket already bought before he got to tell her you were getting his and he tried to let you know but you didn't answer your phone. It was a mix up OP but don't fall out over it. I hope you can get a ticket and that it all ends well.

    It wouldn't be reasonable to ask his friend to put a third ticket on her card either, as she doesn't even know the op. Also, 6 missed calls? It was urgent, too bad op had her phone on silent when she knew her friend wanted to buy tickets that morning.
