I don't feel bad, sometimes it's what you have to do, stand up to people.
I don't think it's asking too much for your friends to be "present" while you're out with them. If she was really a true friend, she would've compromised. I put up with it time and time again so I tried, but after awhile, no more.

It's important to recognize and accept when your friends aren't compatible. Definitely believe it's okay and permissible to let people like this go. Why would you spend time with someone if you were just going to ignore them? It...doesn't make sense. But hey! You got out of it. Now you know this isn't the type of friend you want.
