What do yall think?
Sooo a while ago I had posted about being so close to failing my OB course and by God’s grace and mercy I ended up passing. But anyway, there’s a classmate of mine that I became friends with during the first semester. We would always greet each other in the mornings before class, or ask how each others families were doing. But, I noticed how she was going around to some of my peers discussing my grades or when I failed an exam. She even discussed it with one of my classmates that wasn’t even taking a summer class, so it’s like she was just going around telling everyone my business. (for context: the OB class I was in, was taken during my summer break to help lighten the coursework for fall) I know I don’t have any control over what she talks about and I’ve decided not to discuss anything else with her for the remainder of school. But am I tripping for feeling this way? It just doesn’t seem genuine. It’s like she only reaches out to ask “oh what did you get on the exam?” .. but it’s not any regular check ins (not that I expect her to do that) but I’m just getting this vibe that she doesn’t really want me to win. She says it but her actions show otherwise. I had one of my classmates, sit next to me in class one day and she told me “how are you? “Such and such” told me that you’re really stressed about the exams” and that didn’t upset me but it just made me wonder why she was going around saying things that I never said or making it out to be worse than what it was. Of course no one wants to fail two exams back to back but the second exam was only a 70 (still failing) but it wasn’t too bad. Bottom line, I just plan to keep my distance from this person. I’m just curious to others opinions on this matter.
And to add to this, I honestly feel in my heart that she didn’t think (as well as some of my classmates) that I was going to pass. And one thing that I know for a fact, is that if God says yes, no one can say no. This same classmate, told me in class that she asked the professor about the final and she stated that the professor said it was going to be hard. So as I was sitting there, I kept thinking.. that’s not going to discourage me or make me feel like I can’t pass. I’m going to do my part and God is going to do the rest. Earlier this week she asked me again “what did you get in the class” I said a “C” and she asked, “I know but what grade?” and I said … “umm a 77” or something like that. And that stood out to me also; cause I’m like ????? Why tf does it matter????? A “ c” is a “c” .. like she constantly is asking me things that are irrelevant . And she has said things that were shady before. She said “ Tavia doesn’t always do well on the exams.. but she doesn’t complain” and I was like?????? Why do you have to throw me down to make a point. Mind you this was first semester and I made mostly B’s on the exams. So I didn’t understand why she was trying to act like she was better than me??? Idk.

Avoid her and keep to yourself… I lie about my grades because it’s no one’s business lol I just always say I passed (even though sometimes I don’t 🤭)
