Would you treat your friend differently when you are with your other friends?

I was with my friend G. and her family visiting the Hansefest (a trade festival) in our city. It is a medieval fest were plenty of medieval stools for selling fur coats, clothes, jewelries and so on. There were a lot of shows going on like ancient way of making a knife, singing medieval songs and a wooden Ferris wheel for the children.
I have met a long-time Filipina friend (though not a close friend) with her German husband and their German friends drinking beer while standing. I went to them and great them as I usually did before. It was only the husband who was talking to me but not this Pinay "friend." I told my friend G. to come to me as I would like to introduce her to this Pinay. I noticed that my friend didn´t come to me. Then I said goodbye to the group and wished them a happy day.
G, her family and I went to a cafeteria. Suddenly, I thought to myself, why that Pinay didn´t speak a word to me and was only smiling. Usually, when I met her in the city, she talked a lot about herself and her family. I even get a headache sometimes when I went home because this Pinay spoke multiple languages in a sentence. She usually spoke Tagalog, German and English and in a horrible way.
My friend G told me that this was the Filipina whom she saw when she was shopping in the supermarket. It was this Filipina who looked to her from head to foot as if she was underestimating her.
Sorry. Now I am really ranting. I wonder what happened? I think when I see this Pinay next time in the city, I will ignore her. A tooth for a tooth. What do you think?
Anyway, have a nice Saturday to all of you Mylotters.

I would ask her why she didn't talk to you. I wouldn't ignore her.

I think I will give her a chance. I will not ignore her but will ask her why she was not talking to me. I always want to know if something like this happened. I am a curious person. Thank you @LindaOHio

It is indeed @JudyEv. I think I am lucky she didn't speak to me but I was curious why she didn't because she usually talked to me about what was going on in her life or about other Filipinas when we saw each other accidentally. I find it strange.

Oh I know exactly what you mean Thelma. There are people that behave in this way and it is not cool.
I am the same to all.
I do not give second chance I am a hard nut and have no patience with drama. Done and done finished. But it is worth weighing it out perhaps for you.

She is not really close to me but I know her for more than 30 years now, since our children were still babies but we have not become really close. We only talk to each other when we see each other in the city or when we see each other at a party held by our countrymen. So, it is not a loss to me if ever she ignores me again. I always keep away from people who make me sick. Thank you @TiarasOceanView

Oh, it was my friend G who told me that she was looked at " head to foot" by this Filipina when she met her accidentally at the supermarket. My friend was annoyed by the way she was looked at. They didn´t talk and it was the first time they saw each other. My friend G didn´t even know that I know that Filipina she met at the supermarket. I only know it today. Thanks @just4him.
