I believe it's because the female friend is the indirect object of the sentence and so eine becomes einer.

MIT requires the dative case.
So if you have "mit" then feminine nouns have an "er" ending. Masculine and neuter nouns end in "em"
..mit einer Freundin (die Freundin in nom. case) ...mit der Gabel (die Gabel in nom. case)
...mit einem Freund (der Freund in nom. case) ...mit dem Messer (das Messer in nom. case)
Hope this helps!

Hi Michael.Ross.
Yes, that was very helpful thanks!
It was driving me crazy because they never explained the reasoning behind the sudden change in lesson 9.
However, in lesson 12 they finally explained that MIT requires the dative case :D
Thanks again
