Guest gets suddenly uninvited from friend's potluck moments before event starts: 'I... turned around and went home'

Imagine if you went through all the effort of making a delicious dish for your friend's potluck, only to be hastily excluded mere minutes beforehand! 

Potluck events make things easier for the hosts, and require significantly more effort per attendee. For most parties, showing up with a beverage or a bag of chips is totally cool. But for a potluck, you kind of need to put in the effort because all the other guests are also committing themselves to making a dish. That means finding a good recipe, writing down all the ingredients, buying all that at the grocery store, then baking it all on the day of. Not to mention that someone has to hold this dish on the way over to the party as you drive very carefully so you don't spill it all over the car. It's kind of a hassle! But we do it because having a loving community of friends requires effort, and plus if you're lucky, you'll get to chow down on other food that is even better than what you brought. 

Right, so imagine you do all that, prepping a meal for your besties — you've cooked, cleaned, packed the meal, dressed in your party clothes, and now you're ready to go… only to be told there's not room for you anymore? This person found themselves stunned when their friend suddenly changed the location of the party at the very last minute, but also refused to tell them where the new party was. Instead, the "friend" told them there suddenly wasn't enough room for them. It's all very ridiculous, and I wonder what changed between the invite and the rejection. Check out the whole story below, including the photo of the dish this person made, which looks absolutely delicious. Their so-called friends missed out!
