im 16f and so is my cousin (let’s call her megan) but every time im with her she has to take a photo with me, but the problem is she doesn’t ask and just takes it when im not ready or posing. we had a falling out before becus she chatted shit about me to my ex and was acting flirty with him (yes it sounds petty and i didn’t care about my ex but it was the principle of the situation) and i didn’t speak to her for a while. we used to be close but after that we weren’t. so recently i was at my younger cousins birthday party, im sitting on the sofa and so is megan and im minding my business just looking on my phone cus i don’t know her friends and just eating pizza. i look up then she’s taking a photo of me with her in it and i look at her funny and she starts laughing. she asks “what?” while laughing and i say “why are u taking a photo of me” with obvious discomfort on my face cus it’s WEIRD. and she’s just laughing and i ask who did she send it to and she told me a group chat. idk her friends at the moment or who she sent it to so i just gave her a dirty look and not feed into her need for attention. this is where my problem is, she did like a dump on instagram on her story with that photo in of us on the sofa. and it’s not that flattering like it’s not super bad but it could of been better. so i’m sick of it at this point and responded saying this: “ur such a loser i was just sitting there minding my business then ur taking a photo of me and sending it to random people obviously my reaction was that i thought it was WEIRD then u post it on your story gosh are u in dire need for attention PLEASE get a hobby 😂” i told my parents and my mum said it was harsh and i was like u never side with me (which is true) and my dad didn’t say much. but am i the asshole for being harsh about it?
