Have you ever?

Had a friend who takes info and twists it, basically fibs to make you feel bad?
I have had coworkers who have and still do but to be honest that to me is par for the course when you work with people...
But a friend.
?
I dont' want to upset anyone so I am not going to disclose too much, but this person took something that is going to be pretty cool for me and has turned into something I now feel bad about. Here is the thing this person is not always the most reliable. So what is going on is their own making but they are pushing blame onto me...
UGH

I feel bad this person is hurt but I also understand all too well why the decision was made to not completely include them.
I guess you can't make everyone happy...
