My one friend was being very mean to me on the phone, and I didn't do anything at all! Well this is how it started (sorry this might be long)...
Well my one friend usually calls me about everyday, and I noticed she hadn't called all day yesterday or today, so I thought I'd give her a call. Everything was fine until I asked her if she was gonig to an amusement park for our school or something. She said that her parents would never let her. So I started making these little crying noises because I did want her to go. Then she gets all mean telling me to stop making those squeaking noises. I told her I was just kidding, and she said that it gets annoying sometimes. I couldn't believe that she said that! I mean we're girls! We all make weird noises, especially squeaking ones! After that it was quiet for a while. Then she was talking to me like nothing really happned.
I was trying to figure out why she said that. I thought maybe it was because she might have been jealous because she couldn't go to the amusement park, but she didn't sound so dissapointed about it. Also, it was very hot outside today, and I know they don't have air conditioning, So I thought she might be hot, and irritable. I'm not sure. She seemed like she was in a bad mood, but then she didn't. It was very strange. Maybe she was moody, but I really don't know.
I'm getting kind of worried because I'm affraid she might call our other friends and tell them, which I don't think she will, I sure hope not! But I don't think our friends would get mad, because we all make weird noises for fun. Maybe she was just annoyed and not in the mood for talking, but then again, she didn't seem like it. Like she talked to me on the phone how she always does, but it was different in a way. I don't know, I'm very confused. So do any of you know why she was acting this way? Thanks!
About a month ago, one of my friends really got on my nerves. I didnt really want to talk to her. We got into this huge stupid argument and I refused to talk to her. The next day at school, she acted like nothing happened! I told her that I wasnt going to talk to her until she apologized to me.
In the end, she never did apologize to me, I just decided that it was stupid for us to be mad at each other.
If it has really been bothering you, dont let your friend get away with it. Sit her down and talk to her about it. Its not really fair to you if she is using you as an outlet to her anger. [ Blue421's advice column | Ask Blue421 A Question ]

However, if this is not the end of the world for your relationship, maybe it wouldn't hurt to let it pass for a while. If the problem continues to escalate then look into options such as sitting her down to see if the source of confusion can be determined and resolved. Remember before confronting any problem first determine a satisfactory solution. In Most cases, something like this may be as simple as miscommunication. Hope this helps.

Like have you ever had someone make fun of you while you were complaining like saying boo hoo. She might have taken it that way. If she didn't maybe she was just in a mad mood, and since she went back to normal I really wouldn't worry about it. No worries!!!! [ missmissgurl's advice column | Ask missmissgurl A Question ]
