Friends Or Foe?


Question Posted Thursday March 16 2006, 7:22 pm

female;thirteen

I have this friend, who yelled at my friends & I for drinking her power-ade without her permission. And when she found out that half of it was gone. She began to yell. So I yelled at her back. She ignored me & the others for the rest of the day. I thought she was still made about the whole power-ade thing.

So the next day, I signed on my screen name, and i asked her the specific reason why she was mad at me & the others. She said NOT because of the power-ade, but the fact that my she thought that she was doing a favor for us by not talking to us for the rest of the day, cause she thought we thought she was annoying, which is not true.

I felt bad, cause she told me she cried that night. Which made me feel worst about yelling at her in the first place. I was talking on the phone with her, and she started crying cause she told me everything about what is happening about her life. She told me her friend treats her like crap, worst of all, this friend that is treating her like crap happens to be one of my good friends.

She won't do nothing about it. I told her to talk to her about it. But she said she can't. I told her I would talk to her friend about it. But she said that would make things even worst.

What do I do?

The only way that she'll ever let her friend stop treating her like crap is when she steps up and does something about it. Not you or any of her other friends. This is her job.

I don't really understand why you were yelling back at her when she got upset about you and other friends drinking her sports drink. She had the right to be upset about that. So, I think you shouldn't have made matters worse by yelling back. You should have said that you were sorry.

Maybe your friend really is going through a tough time, and all she needs is for you to be there for her when you can be. If she starts to talk about her friend that treats her badly, just keep telling her that she needs to do something about their friendship instead of letting her stomp all over her and treating her like crap.

But your friend is right, it will make things worse if another friend butts in. This is between her and her friend.

[So what. That was between her and THAT OTHER GIRL. YOU cannot stop her from treating her like crap. It will never happen by you. It's a DRINK. Who cares if your friends admitted to drinking it or not, you still drank it, and if they aren't going to amit that they didn't when they DID, you call those people your friends? Why stick up for them and yell back when they wouldn't even be mature and own up to it? Oh well, I really don't care. Immature]

the best thing you can do is to keep trying to help her. secretly talk to the friend thats treating her lyke crap, ask whts up and why shes treating your other friend that way, believe me, if shes your really good friend, she`ll listen to what you have to say and things wont get worse between your 2 friends. well hope things work out!

well i think you neeed to mention somthing about her to the other friend even though she said not to, if this other girl is really your friends friend then she wouldnt be treating her like crap! Just ask her and in the mean time try to be this other girls best friend, and keep her happy and not thinking about her friend/life. good luck!
