my one friend just told me that my best friend has said really mean stuff behind my back - like im not pretty, fat, boys dont like me, i try too hard, etc. i dont know how to bring it up with her because its kind of embarassing and really hurts my feelings because she's my best friend. this girl who told me said i'm not aloud to tell her but i think i might have to ... i dont want it hurting our friendhsip, she said these things earlier in the year so should i just forget about it or bring it up somehow? i dont wanna get in a fight but at the same time i think about it and im like why would she say that even if it was earlier in the year? i dont think she would say something like that now, because i think we were annoyed at each other when she said those things. but idkk. it doesnt sound liek her so maybe she didn't even say it? but this girl has no reason to lie to me. so, helppp! what should i do? thanks.

I know how you feel, I went through the same thing. I think you should talk to your friend about it. Be very brave and serious when asking her. Also, for the friend that told you this, I think you should tell her first that your going to talk to you best friend about it. Just tell her its really bugging you, and you want to work the problem out. But if what your friend said about you didn't sound like her, then maybe it wasn't, but I would still talk to her about. The best way to bring it up, is to maybe spend the day with her, then find the courage to just ask her. Maybe start out by saying, "Hey, I heard that you were saying some stuff about me a while back, and it made me kind of upset because your my best friend, and I don't want anything to ruin our friendship." But thats only an example. you may say what ever you like. Well I hope I have helped you, and don't worry, I'm sure everything is going to be alright! Good Luck! ^_^ [ mLpengie123's advice column | Ask mLpengie123 A Question ]
