I would take Cindy's advice. It will be a bit quick to say goodbye to an eight-year friendship with my best friend simply because of a misunderstanding. I am sure she would give me a reasonable explanation. After a heart-to-heart talk, I believe Amy and her friend will be what they were before.

I understand you thoroughly and you have every reason to feel angry when meeting with such a problem. But I advise you to calm down first and find out the truth, then you can easily make a decision. Fortunately, I happen to be your friend Jenny's classmate. The truth is, according to Jenny's explanation, that she was really ill that morning and canceled the appointment. But in the afternoon, she got a call from another friend she hadn't seen for a long time. Feeling that she was much better then, she went out for a coffee.
From my perspective, she doesn't betray you and your friendship deserves mending. As we know, when we choose a true friend, we need to look for a friend we can trust, a friend we forgive. Pick up your friendship again and you'll find it makes you a better person.
