My 'best' friend was talkin about me behind my back
Question Posted Wednesday December 14 2005, 3:24 pm
My so-called best friend...K,..was talking about me behind my back. And when I confronted her she was like "OMG I SWEAR I DIDN"T SAY THAT!" Because, her boyfriend, my good friend and ex, just broke up with her and she said that he left her for me. I know that doesn't seem like something to get mad about, but it made me furious! Because, I liked him, and I told her too, and she just forgot about it and omg,...do I have a right to be mad? Should I just forget the whole thing? Thanks in advance!

If your angry at your friend for dating him in the firsgt place, i can understand that you might feel jelouse and therefor upset. IF your angry at him for dating her, then breaking up with her for no good reason, i understand also. most people feel portective of their friends. Reading your problem you seem to be angry at her about taking him from you. So i suggest that you talk to both of them. say:
i know you really like Jason(or whjatever his name is) but i really think you should have asked me before asking him out, as i really would have appreciated and it made me feel really uncomfotable being between to good friends like that.And i feel your not listening to me because when i told you that i still liked him, you ignored me."
there isnt really much advice you can give to a stiuation like that, but the best thing you can do , is to get to TRUTHFUL sides of the story, then add them together to get the truth.

Sorry you're dealing with this. I personally think you should give your friend something to chew on. Confront her in person or call her up and tell her you want the honest truth and nothing but it. Tell her if she was talking behind your back you want to know up front and you wanna skip on the bullshit and get down to the issue. Also mention you're not gonna be mad if she admits it, that you just want the truth. Understand that yes, maybe she did talk behind your back, but I'm sure you've done it in the past before. If she has a record of talking about you then the girl must be naturally bitchy. I also find it a little odd that she would go out with your ex, not exactly best friend behaviour if you ask me. She doesn't sound like a good friend to begin with. But how you deal with that is up to you. It doesn't sound what she said was even that horrible...I mean it's not terribly embarassing. Just ask her not to do it again and forgive if her if you feel like you still value the friendship. [ Mercy_x_Me's advice column | Ask Mercy_x_Me A Question ]
