Is NOBODY wrong in the post ? POST : I’ll try to keep this short. My boyfriend was hospitalized last week. This obviously made me upset and I was also home alone the whole time.  My parents called to check on me. They asked me when I was going to visit my boyfriend and I told them my plan. I was going to visit him in the morning, hangout with my friend during the afternoon, then visit him again at night. The hospital is 45 mins from my house, and my friend lives close to the hospital. I wanted to do this so I didn’t have to drive 45 mins back and forth twice in one day. 

So the issue is with my friend. We were best friends and had a falling out (too long to get into this post) Recently she contacted me and apologized and I forgave her. So I didn’t tell my parents we were friends again, and realized I had to when I was telling them my plan to visit my boyfriend. So when I began to tell my parents about being friends with her again, my stepdad replied “oh that asshole?” So I hung up the phone. 

I’m 26 years old, i should be able to pick my own friends without backlash from my parents. My brother called me recently and told me my parents were upset how I hung up on them. Since then, I’ve talked to my parents but none of us have brought up what happened. I think if they’re truly upset they should confront me. Am I being the asshole?
