What made you ghost a friend?

My childhood best friend

When we were kids, my parents put her up on a pedestal. Everything was about how she was better than me, skinnier than me (I was underweight as a kid???), etc. She caught onto this and used it. She didn’t allow me to have other friends. She constantly insulted me. When my childhood crush/his sister came to her house, she would make sure to put up ugly photos of me around her room. She made a PowerPoint presentation full of pictures of me with a voiceover just shitting on how “ugly” and “fat” I was.

She moved away when I was 12, but we remained friends. Things got a bit better until she turned 15/16 Her family moved around a lot (military) and she became very promiscuous. We would be chatting on Skype and her boyfriend would come through the window and they would start having sex on camera (I always hung up the call). She got pregnant and the boyfriend left. She would call me every time she had a crisis. However, between crisis’s, she didn’t want anything to do with me. She didn’t reply to any of my follow-up messages to check on her. She would post all over Facebook about how nobody cared about her. She would tell her sister that she missed me, but ignore my texts when I tried to reach out.

I tried to reconnect after all of that, but she just shit on me during the entire phone call. I have a BA in Spanish language. She insisted that I didn’t speak Spanish and I was lying. She claimed that she spoke Spanish, not me. She never took a Spanish class in her life and didn’t speak any Spanish.

I still see her stuff on social media. She now has 2 kids, a flaky baby daddy, and all she posts about is getting drunk.
