entitled to be annoyed?

So, basically Saturday night was my 18th birthday pubcrawl, it wasnt too organised so not many people ended up coming, but about 5 of us were out in town at the end and we'd agreed before hand to head on over to Reflex, and attempt the one underage person to get in with us. So we go over to the club and one of my friends and her boyfriend decide they don't want to go to Reflex and they want to go there, (because they didnt like the look of the people in the queue), so that leaves just me, one mate who doesn't really want to leave the underage one get home on her own if she doesn't get in, so we decide not to go there. The mate who didnt want to go to Reflex then wants to go to this alternative club, and I hate that sort, and seriously I go out to alternative gigs and clubnights with her all the time, and didnt want to waste another load of money and then taxi money to go out there. So, me and the others decide to go home instead. I wouldn't've really expected to be able to choose (other than because i never do, they wouldnt go to see an indie band i wanted but i go to hers all the time) but it was my birthday. Now, she was really arsey with us for going home, which i didnt think was at all fair. Then today, I find out that her and her boyfriend ended up going to Reflex!!! Am I entitled to be annoyed? I'm kind of fed up with being treated like this by her, because to be fair this is barely the only time she only does things she wants and uses me etc.
Is it pathetic to fall out with her over this? When people asked me about my birthday today I said I went home once i got to town and she piped in with "but i stayed and had a great time" so i made a comment about yeah, after saying you didnt want to go there and making me go home. And she made some offensive symbol or whatever at me, I didnt really notice what it was but it was followed with "haha was i subtle" to my mate that gave her a funny look for it.

ur friend is selfish, even if she is bossy, she should have respected your birthday because a birthday is special as it comes round once a year. she should be taught a lesson on how to treat others. I always get people asking me, you shouldn't stop being friends with people who maybe lazy and do nothing for a friendship. I can probably agree. But it depends on alot of other stuff, if you stop being friends with this one person, what would happen between the group? What if the group rather joined with her and not you? Stop being friend with one person also means that the other person will hate you, so could you live with that? Could you live with her retaliation? Sometimes the world is so selfish and people take the wrong sides. But overall theres alot of other factors to think about before deciding, one thing is one person needs to tell her that her bossy attitude won't win many friends over.

Definitely entitled to be annoyed. I'd be fuming. Have they given any reasoning behind it? How did you find out?

she was bragging at break time about how good a weekend she had out at reflex with her boyfriend, she didnt give any reasoning, just made arsey gestures to me for daring to say the little i did. my other friends ive moaned about it to have just been like "yeah it was bitchy and yeah its bad that she's the one turning around and getting in a mood with you but that's just Emma." So I guess that gives my answer to who they'd side with.
But there's no way I'm letting her manipulate me into being paranoid anymore (the girl is so good at identifying my weakness and making me feel like ****), or going out to things we wants to go to if I don't - there's no point in me wasting my money on a friend who's not willing to do stuff for me. I know not to trust her, but then I've said this too many times before. Bring on university, only a few(ish) months to go now!
