My good friend is really mad at me I asked her what she thought of one of our guy friends and I thought she said she liked him. But we were in the hallway and I guess I didnt hear right. I told this guy friend because he likes her somewhat. well it turned out that i was wrong and he told her that i told him and she immed me and was cursing me out and stuff. I tired to explain to her that i missunderstood and that i was sorry. She then told me that even if she had i had no right to tell him and that she wont ever tell me anything again. She wont even talk to me. I feel really bad about the whole thing. What shud I do?

Just like with any other argument, you should give her time to cool off. Don't pointedly avoid her because that might offend her even more. Just be careful what you do and say around her.

After she's cooled off a little bit, sit her down somewhere where it's just the two of you and talk. The ONLY way to solve a misunderstanding is to talk it out. Explain yourself and the situation and tell her how sorry you are and that you want to help her.

I do think that you should talk to her about her cutting herself and explain to her how dangerous it is but make it clear to her that you're just worried about her. This will show her that you ARE a good friend.

Eventually, this will all blow over. These things don't last long. People will find something new to talk about.
