She most likely wasn't a real friend.

If she doesn't believe you over a girl she's known for a week, then she's never really valued your friendship.
As to why she didn't believe you. Who knows. You'll probably have to ask her about that. Maybe she had a good reason or maybe she's just gullible and will believe what other people tell her.

Trust is an important thing in any relationship. Glad to see you know that.
As to why they didn't trust well at 13 we all just didn't have enough life skills yet to know how to make good decision, how to not be gullible, or how to spot a person who is a fibber, a good story teller, etc...
While your bodies are maturing, your brains won't finish developing fully in the frontal part until mid 20's. The big deal is this area of the brain deals with making good decisions, not quick rash ones. Thats how so many teens end up in a bad situation or dead. They could not think ahead to see the possible pitfalls or warning signs. Its not a life and death thing with your best friend, but obviously she is easily fooled and drawn to a flashy storyteller. Hopefully she will come to see the truth on her own and grow up and learn. There isn't anything you can do but wait and be willing to take her back as a friend once she realizes her errors and apologizes. If you take her back but she pulls the same stunt over and over again, then she has not learned anything and its going to take a way long time for her to grow up. It would be best in that case to cut the friendship and look for more mature trustworthy friends.
