I had a group of friends, and after a few years I noticed one friend going cold towards me. They would jump at any opportunity to dismiss my opinion or get mad over trivial things (example: I said something offhandedly about how no one should own a pet if they can’t afford their annual shots. This friend took great offense to this and started getting mad and raising her voice to me. She thought I was implying she shouldn’t get a pet? I don’t even know). I suddenly noticed this friend was making plans and not including me (no biggie I don’t get mad about that stuff) and they suddenly disappeared from our group chat and made one without me (draaaaammmaaa). I’m pretty laid back so I just let it go, and didn’t bring it up, but I was definitely starting to feel anxious and a bit like I was walking on eggshells. Suddenly, 6 months after they started ignoring me I received a message from them. It was paragraph after paragraph of all the reasons I’m a shitty person and friend. How I’m awful and rude, and how they just can’t stand to be my friend anymore. It was detailed and devestating. Most of the things in it were either not true or complete misunderstandings. I basically said ok, had a good cry, and blocked the friend. The others in the friend group ended up backing me up, and suddenly this friend was mad the group was split up and they were missing out. A few months later they were asking for forgiveness and begging for reconciliation. I’d like to say I ignored it, and I did for a while, but I felt pressure from the group to make nice so I did. That lasted all of a year before another blow up happened and I bailed fast. I basically said I had too much stress in my life to carry on the friendship and the friend told me my problems weren’t that big of a deal. I was done then. It was waaay too much drama and pettiness for my age.
