My ex-best friend


Question Posted Wednesday October 19 2005, 5:21 pm

13/f/ny

My ex-best friend Maggie is such a jerk!!

We had a fight and decided not to be friends anymore, because she totally used me to come over to my (big) house, swim in my (inground) pool, and just get away from her own house. i have proof that she did that too - cuz one time i got sick when she was over and she swam and hung out with my little bro & sis all day while i was up in bed throwing up!!!!

Now she is telling everyone rumours about me and being such a brat. she told everyone on our bus who i like. she told him too. she told everyone all the secrets i used to tell her..even the old ones. i want to get back at her..but i don't. i mean, i'm sort of the girl that NEVER does anything mean and people even call me a goody goody or whatever.

i am really fed up with maggie! what should i do to get her to stop making up things about me and telling all my secrets! i could tell all of her secrets to everyone..but to tell you the truth i actually don't know any (it was sort of a one sided relationship..i cared about her but she didnt give a crap about me)

thanx! ~rach~

The only way this situation can get any better is to address it to an adult, such as your parents and school principle or counselor. Revenge is just a big game to make your school year more stressful and overwhelming, because if you push back, then Maggie will just keep pushing you again, there won't be a stop. The mature person in a situation puts an ending to a fight, make you that person. If you find that an adult for some strange reasons can't fix the problem, (which would be very ridiculous, seeing as the school is suppose to fix problems that happen at school), then keep paying attention to your work, so the guy you like knows about you, oh well. I guess thats too bad for Maggie, because she has nothing better to spend her life on than telling secrets and looking nasty to other people even though they don't have nasty reactions. But, sooner later, she'll notice how you didn't go and spread her secrets, because you're are better than to be evil to someone even though they aren't your friend. Remember that revenge will keep the fight going, so leave that option out.

Why do you want to get back at her? Would it make you feel better or something? I don't think so. Don't tell people her secrets because that will make you be just like her. She wasn' a good friend at all, but you should just forget about this whole thing. There is nothing you can do. Well, you could be an evil person and do that back to her, but you seem really nice so don't do that. All those rumors she said, you and your friends belive that they aren't true and that's all that matters. She is trying to make you mad and piss you off, and the more you care, the more she will do it. You have to proove to her that you don't care about her or her selfish attitude. If you let go and forget about it, she will stop. Trust me. She won't keep doing it.

Let it go.

Seriously. You've already admitted there is nothing you can do to her that is as bad as the way she has used you and that you don't really want to hurt her. So don't try.

If you want to be the better person here, shrug your shoulders, cry out the betrayal and pain, and next time be a little more wary of people.

Ignore her. She has probably run out of secrets by now, so just ignore her. Whatever she says just roll your eyes and say "Aren't you bored with that yet?"

She isn't worth the trouble and neither is anyone who takes what she says seriously. So just worry about your own happiness and let her do what she wants.

This probably won't be easy, but try not to let it get to you. Eventually she'll probably get bored and go away. If it gets really out of hand then tell someone (a parent or teacher). Trying to get back at her will only make things worse.
