As you played out, this girls seems some what manipulative and controlling. You shouldn't have to take her crap anymore. No matter what you guys have been through, think fully and think is this really worth it? Feeling worhless just to be friends with her.
If you truely do not want to be friends with her, confronting her may start even more drama. Start to slowly drift apart from her. This way if she really wants you, she'll come to you. Don't "ignore" her or anything because she'll just think your trying to start drama to get attention. Slowly try to talk to new people and find some new peole. You only have 2 years left, and then your off to college (:
Everything will work out, all of the people in your high school now will be gone in a few years and u probably won't even talk to this girl anymore after high school. I hope everything works out! [ Alilash's advice column | Ask Alilash A Question ]

Change always happens to everyone...sometimes for the better or for the worse. And during those changes, we sometimes have limits to what we can handle such as you've had enough of your friends bitchy attitude. Everyone wants to be treated fairly and at least be treated with respect. Your "friend" isn't giving you what you want most and since she's not giving you her friendship, would you still consider her as a friend? Listen, getting over this situation is very difficult, but you gotta keep your head high and just move on. This may sound harsh but...you don't exactly "need" her to go on with your own life.
And seriously, if she's gonna try and make your life hell, her's is going to get worse because she's just wasting her time trying to hurt other people's feelings just to feel proud or something. But anyway, just ignore her if she threatens you like that...show her that you're not afraid of her and that it's pathetic to use pointless words.
You are very strong, getting through this may be tough but in time it'll just be another memory. I know that it hurts to find out that a close friend is crushing a precious friendship but it's a way to move on even if you guys drift apart. Don't let her rudeness get in the way of what your goal is in life. You'll still have those memories of her during your years together, some may be bad but some are good...this time you make new ones.

Girll, i've been there for before, except my friends know how to treat me right because they're my friends. Friends as in; there for me when i need them, and respects me. && frankly you deserve to be treated that way too. Yes, you guys may have had some good times and obviously some bad ones too, but with a friend like that...YOU NEED TO DROP HER....and if she does try to maker your life a living hell...act like it's not even bothering you...TRUST ME THAT ALWAYS WORKS. don't sink to her level and try to make her life a living hell in return. From what i've read your'e a really good and people would love to have a friend like you.
