happened to me more than once and I still fell for it... tell the ____ what you think of them and walk away. Don't let them pull that $h*t on you again..

Maybe she really does feel like the victim.
And what about the other friends? You never mentioned whether you lost your other friends directly because of this girl.
I get the feeling that there's more to this than the secret lets on.

Secret-Teller In reply to rcsi1 [2008-03-19 20:36:32 +0000 UTC]

Maybe she does. I, however, personally feel that she has no right too.

It is directly from her.
See a while ago she told us all this really big lie which we didn't know was a lie until a bit before I sent this secret in. (I don't want to go into too much detail on what exactly that lie was so I'm sorry if this is confusing). And when I say it was a big lie I really mean big.
When we found out it was a lie she adopted this "Boohoo! It's not my fault! I never meant for it get this far! I'm more hurt by this than any of you are! *crycry*" attitude. Our other friends let it be known that they were hurt, but they forgave her. I wasn't as quick to forgive her (mainly because her lie ended up involving me more than any of them so I freely admit I was much angrier at her). We were still best friends though, so I never once thought that I'd actually hate her or never forgive her.
But a couple days after it happened she started to try to shift the blame onto me. Saying it was my fault that she lied and that I had no right to be angry at her because of it. I have no idea what exactly she told our other friends, but now they're all under the impression that the lie was my idea. Not just my fault mind you, but my idea.
And now to add insult to injury she's the one trying to get them to forgive me. And everytime I refuse that just makes me even more of the bad guy.

So yeah, as I'm feeling angry, betrayed, alone, and all that good stuff, I might be being biased. *shrugs* I don't think I am, but as I'm stuck in the middle of this I can't say for sure that I'm not.
All I know is she came up with the original lie all on her own and then kept perpetuating that lie by shifting the blame for it onto me.

At this point though, I agree with all the people who commented and I'm ready to accept the fact that they never really were my friends. It doesn't make it hurt any less, but I'm not going to play her games anymore.

...and that's probably much more than you really cared to know. Sorry.

No, it's fine.

This makes a lot more sense now.

The difference between you and this person here is... In five years... you will have taken this lesson and learned from it and become a much better person... and a stronger one as well... All they will have taken from it is another lame personality trait that they probably wont ever grow out of.... Later on when you are a successful person who has found love and happiness, you will run into them in the store or somewhere and smile and say hello and walk away without another thought.... This person will stand there and remember exactly what happened and what they did... and they will know they were never good enough for you.

Totally been there. The friends who stuck by me were the real friends. all the other "friends" weren't, so I got some new ones to go with the loyal ones. Never been happier.

Oof. I was just in this boat. That's like 5 secrets this week that could have been sent in by me. That's the thing I love about DAS. It definitely makes me feel less alienated.

when i first saw this i thought it was one of my best friends. we have been through the same thing, she (being the ex friend) told one of our biggest secrets in the world, she told it because she though she was being a "good friend" then we got mad at her, she yelled at us through emails and notes in class. we thought, whatever, its not like a want a friend like that, and then she called us saying really rude things to us. now, 3 months later, she wants us back again. now, we have new friends, can trust each other mored then we trust ourselves, and couldnt be happier. dont worry, eventually she'll want to be friends with you again and you'll have plenty of new friends and will be happier than ever, just wait.

Sounds disgusting. But either your friends will learn the truth, or you can start over fresh, which may be a good thing, in the long run.

firedance99 [2008-03-12 21:59:57 +0000 UTC]

wow, I know how that feels. all I can say is hang in there, and try not to be bitter so you won't find friends who won't betray you

Dear lord, I know exactly what you mean.

You're not the stupid one in this, she is. But don't let it get to you. Because I'm sure that in a few years, she'll look back and wonder just what the heck is wrong with her, while you'll be surrounded by friends who won't betray you. Don't be the one regretting this. Let her pay for her mistakes.

ah! this infuriates me for you! i hate, hate, HATE liars, manipulators anyone who will twist anything to keep themselves out of the fire. i aven't had that happen too often with friends, but a father and brother of mine could easily be attached to these words you've written

bluewave [2008-03-12 14:58:00 +0000 UTC]

This could so be me right now... but with an loud mouth egomaniac who feels the need to be right and have the last word to prove his dick isn't to small... sorry I'm being bitter, but I have learned a few things...

People will believe whatever they want to believe and I've learned that trying to change that is futile. The best thing to do is be happier and more healthy than they could ever be, because the lies and delusions she has to keep living up to will eventually break them from the inside out.

Thats happened to me. And it ruined the little trust I had in people. Now some of the friends who believed that she was a better friend are crawling back to me as they learn who she really is. Only one of them I acknowledge because I know they are a good person, they just didn't know who to trust.

Some people consider friends as just another rung on the ladder while they climb their way to the top. But when they fall because they run out of people to use, they won't have anyone to catch them.

Suprisingly, in a similar position, found out this afternoon that almost all the people I thought were my friends actually don't like me at all.
ST, try and make yourself stronger, even if you dont feel it, show them you're strong enough to get by without them despite how bloody hard it is to get through
