A week ago, a group chat with my friends was made because we were gonna go see a new movie that was coming out. More people wanted to join, and the amount of people went up to 11. I did not want to see the movie with that many people, so I decided to split off from the group.

I made it very clear that the reason I split off and was going to see it by myself was because of the amount of people going to see it. During my previous times of watching movies with them, they would talk during it and interrupt, being loud.

Today, me and my friend (who we’ll call Max) were talking about a fort that we were making, I asked who was coming and he said someones name, out of curiosity I genuinely wanted to know if they’d do work, since the last time we were working on the fort, we were all working except for her. By the way, we’ll call her Alex.

About an hour ago, I get a text from Alex asking if I have a problem with her. Because of a previous incident where somebody else thought I wasn’t going to see the same movie because of them, I asked if she thought that was the reason. She said 5 people told her that I wasn’t going to the movie and I wasn’t going to the fort because of her, which I said very clearly wasn’t the reason.

Alex proceeded to call me a gaslighter and some other not so nice things, and that I was making this a big deal, but how are you supposed to respond when you’re being accused of something you didn’t say / do? Eitherway, I told her I was moving on and that I didn’t do anything wrong, I blocked her number afterwards.

She had mentioned 5 people told her about this, but the only person who I had mentioned her to in the slightest was Max, and Max is known for lying a lot, so I messaged him and asked why he did it. Of course, he denied it but what she said basically provided as the proof, I then told him to tell her the truth.

So now I’m here wondering if I’m in the wrong? I have grown up with her since kindergarten, she’s been over to my house a few times, she’s hung out with me and my friend group multiple times before, so I don’t know why she would all of a sudden believe this. I did my best to show that I wasn’t lying and didn’t have anything against her, but, she doesn’t believe me. Am I wrong?
