Is this called bad-mouthing??!?!


Question Posted Friday January 11 2013, 5:30 am

Okay. I have this friend. No, not a friend. A bitch. She takes advantage of me and then treats me as if I'm transparent. She was close to me last time but I realised that I was the one giving in to her all the time and she took the friendship for granted, so we became just friends. But she was mean. So once, my friend was chatting with me. At that time my friend was close to her. But I told her, "Maybe you shouldn't tell all your secrets to her. She might betray you when she gets angry. She did that to me."
Then my friend told her. WTF?! And then BOTH of them got angry at me because they said I BAD-MOUTHED HER. They started spreading rumours about me and stuff. I'm serious. She really did that to me before. I'm so upset because they blew this whole thing up and pushed all the blame to me. If she had not done that to me, I would never have said that to my friend. HELP!! What should I do? I'm not patching things up anymore because I've had enough!!!! :(

well technically it was bad mouthing her because you said something mean to a girl you considered a friend at the time to another time not in front of the friend. But you were being honest and trying to warn, so don't let it bother you because karma is a bitch and you can guarantee that girl will prove what you said right.

What you said about that girl wasn't a positive thing to say about her but if she really did that to you then you were telling the truth. Just like Mangy Momma said. I agree that you need to find new friends.

If they are spreading rumors about you I would ignore them and they will stop. If you don't feel like you can just ignore what they are saying then let people know if they approach you with these rumors that, you told your friend the truth about this girl and she didn't like it. So now that is why they are spreading rumors. That should help diffuse them.

Be the bigger person and don't spread rumors back they will get what is coming to them in the end!

I suppose it could be looked at as bad mouthing, but in all honesty you were just telling her the truth and giving her a warning.
Really sounds like you need to make new friends.
