I was out with her the other day at shopping and she ran into lots of her other friends and she asked them if they were attending the event and she arranged to meet up with them. But she never once turned to me and said 'hey are you going to come to?'. I dont understand why, unless she just assumes ill invite myself? I really want to go to this event but I feel offended my best friend never invited me and I cant really just invite myself with her.This guy I know who I think likes me invited me to the same event but I dont like him back. So I could go with him, but then that could give him the wrong idea.What should I do?

I think most people have friends who never reciprocate what we do for them; maybe they take you for granted.
Maybe she just expects you to turn up.
Or maybe she thinks you may not to want to go.
Or maybe she doesn't want to go -- but if you're "best friends" like you say you I can't see why would this would be the case.
Ask her. Or bring the issue up subtly. When you're around her maybe just say "I'm not sure if I want to go" or "I don't think I can make it" or something like that and see what she says.
But don't go with a lad if you don't want to go with him.
