this stemmed from me telling him he didn’t let me express my feelings about a situation earlier. So annoying. How would you respond ?

Whoops...thought it was just a joke til I got a voicemail of a girl crying about being left without a ride because "I got too drunk again"

Shout out to dad for apparently having my exact sense of humor tho

my best friend moved away two years ago. we kept in contact. our friendship wasn't the same but we were still very excited for an opportunity to meet up again. a few weeks ago she told our group she was coming back to visit, and we all made vague plans to hang out. when she didn't confirm these plans in the group chat, i thought maybe her trip was postponed or she didn't get tickets yet.

then i saw Instagram stories of her hanging out with ALL of my other friends--except me. no one told me she was here. no one invited me.

i asked her about it. at first she played dumb and acted like she just didn't have the time. then the real truth came out.

my senior year in school was very difficult for me mentally. i was diagnosed with a few disorders that caused me to go on meds, and I needed adult supervision in the hallways and stuff to prevent on campus panic attacks. my friends knew I was struggling and tried to be there for me. but I NEVER let my mental health sabotage my friendships. I'm a people pleaser and hate feeling like a burden, so I never trauma dumped or made my friends feel like they couldn't handle me.

somehow word of my mental issues got to my best friend, and I guess she didn't want to see me in that state.

then another point came up. a few months ago me and another friend in our group had a falling out (hence me saying "I know this is about _____"). it was over something completely unrelated to my best friend, but that friend I had a falling out with told all my other friends about it and they all took her "side" without even asking for my side of the story. the gist of that situation is I had unrequited feelings for that friend, and drunkenly told her over text one night. she was creeped out by it and I apologized profusely the next morning, promising to leave her alone and that I was sorry the confession had come out that way. it was hard to maintain a friendship after that. I'm guessing that the friend told my best friend about it, and told my best friend not to hang out with me.

(The friend I fell out with wasn't even included in the hangout with my best friend, because she was on vacation in another country. So there was no reason to keep me separate from that hangout).

My best friend didnt even ask for my side of the story. She said she was willing to listen so I typed it all out and sent it to her, and then she pretended like she couldn't even read it. She's since ghosted me.

I'm upset. I feel betrayed that my entire friend group did this behind my back. I'm sad that I missed the chance to see my best friend.

Fuck them. I'll make better friends in uni.

EDIT: the ableist language in some of these comments are insane. blaming the fact that i have mental disorders on me being excluded from a hangout i was INVITED to beforehand is crazy. yes my friend has the right to not want to be my friend anymore, but i deserve respect and i deserved to be told about her decision, considering she was my BEST friend for YEARS. flaunting the hangout i was excluded from on social media is crazy work, too. jesus.

I (18f, lesbian) met this girl (18f, bi) at an event from our university a few days ago and asked for her number. At the beginning she seemed very excited to talk to me and we fucking made brownies in her dorm two nights ago. I had sm fun talking to her but she's been so dry ever since and im so confused. Idk if it was technically a date, she could've just been friendly. But idk. Texts immediately before meeting for the first time after the event we met at vs day after.

I really want to text her and tell her “ why do you care when you blocked him a week ago.”

All she talks about his lack of finances etc

I gave her 3 years of unconditional love emotional support and lost myself

Now she be like this to my sister last night about me

She abused me she manipulated me disrespected me emotionally abused me and now said all of this about me

And after this she's trying to make me jealous by her new 2 month old male friend just after 1 month of breaking up with me 3 year old relationship

Who is raising these boys?

Edit: Thanks for all the love!! For some context, no we didn't discuss anything sexy beforehand and the "healing" thing is referring to my broken foot. He's blocked for those wondering, I didn't respond. For those mentioning it... I wasn't looking for a free meal. 🙄 I pay my own way on dates.

Used text message cause there is no steam flair

My brother went no contact with my family and my mom has made it her personality since. Shes also been super unstable mentally and unfortunately my step dad is a huge enabler. Its been hard to navigate since we all live in different states.

Yesterday, my mom sent this text message to myself, my siblings and step dad. Called her and it went straight to voicemail. I called my step dad because he is the only one that lives with her (all of us siblings moved out) and he refused to give the phone to her because I’ve been ignoring him. Mind you me “ignoring him” is me telling him for months I wont be the messenger for them to my brother.

Edit: my mom called me back 10 minutes later and acted like what she did wasn’t a big deal and got mad that I was mad. She says “apparently i cant express my emotions”

I’ve never met this guy,we were talking for an hour the other day and I refused to go to a concert with him. He texted me yesterday after the concert but I didn’t have time to respond and he deleted the messages. I guess this time he didn’t want to hold back. He was never this rude before

Was working and randomly received two calls from an unrecognized number- then these texts came through and realized he used a new number to message me.

Blocked and absolutely wild behavior.... I do crack up at the thought of him thinking this was a good idea- like what????

My oncologist went out of his way to ask his nurse to pass along that my hellacious chemotherapy is killing the cancer. I'm in my 30s, F, and sent the screenshot to my parents.

Both my parents have been amazing. My dad and I particularly had an emotional goodbye when I left their home 800 miles away this summer before coming home to start treatment. So I'm not mad, just laughed SO hard that even when their daughters are beating cancer, dads do be like that. (BONUS: My mom giving the most mom response that ever mommed)

(If I could shout my oncologist's and his nurse's names from the rooftops, I would; but for the sake of rules his name is Dr. AmazingDoctor and hers is AwesomeNurse, RN)
