Hi Reddit, I made this account because there is no one who I can speak to in real life about this and I need to let it all out. So I 15 (f) and my best friend Eva (not her real name) 15(f) have always been really close and have had a really strong bond up until now, this all started around march time, when she confronted two girls for talking bad about her behind her back; some context for you all, we have a friend group of 6 people, me, Eva, Sarah, Hannah,Maddie and Lucy (not their real names) and Sarah and Hannah were obviously closer to each other than the rest of the group, they always hung out together and always were each others number one, now they are really nice don’t get me wrong but when they are together, they try to one up each other and impress each other by being mean to everyone and I don’t know why but they just do, for example: we all go to an after school club on the same day and as I only live a mile away I just walk so I always ask the girls what are they doing to get home, all the girls answer honestly accept for Hannah and Sarah they try to hide that they are having a lift from Hannah’s mum then hanging out after but me and Eva always saw them in the car and they try to hide; it really hurt me that they couldn’t have the decency to tell me. Well in march she confronted one of the girls, Hannah for always trying to talk about her to anyone who would listen and obviously Eva new, then Hannah even though Eva told her not to started chatting about her again so for the sake of her mental health she left the friend group, it hurt me but whatever is best for her. Now in my school, there are two populations, G and W, and all of our group are in G except for Eva, meaning she had made friends in her classes. Now this is where I think I start loosing her, she starts always picking them over me, acting like she doesn’t know me in school and only talking to me if she really needs to. She always said she wouldn’t drift away but these past two weeks are just proving my theory, I am a really busy person, and I can’t hang out with her much whereas she is never busy other than the odd family gathering. When I’m busy she has been hanging out with her other friends posting about them whatever I don’t really care go have fun but I have been free most of the second week and have asked her but has always chosen someone else over me, for example I asked her if she wanted to come out somewhere with me and she said that she would rather hang out with this other girl, it really upset me. I may sound a little petty for this but we live very close to a famous theme park and we absolutely love going, and we were going to go this coming Monday, she had already been twice with her other friends which I don’t really care about. This is the thing that annoys me, I had to remind her 5 times to book her ticket and she said to me on call that she wasn’t that excited as she had already been. I felt so heartbroken in that moment I wanted to just cry. Now another thing that has me annoyed is her boyfriend let’s call him jack 16 (m) now we met jack at a sports event and he was my partner, nice guy and I enjoyed talking to him, it was obvious my friend had a crush on him but it didn’t bother me. Jack then asked if I would be his gf and I politely declined. Now jack gets ahold of Eva’s number and they start chatting, then they become gf and bf and I’m happy for them. But then she has the audacity to say to me he never liked you he was using you to get to me. Which isn’t true and I don’t know where she got that from, now I was texting jack the other day, and he asked me about an argument me and Eva have had. I asked him how he knew about that and he told me Eva told him. I was in shock. I then said that I would talk to him tomorrow as I am supposed to be asleep and he said I know, and then followed with stuff he knew about me. And then said Eva told him. I felt so betrayed. Some of that stuff was personal and she could just tell her boyfriend that. Now to present day, where I got the motivation to write this out, you may know how the ice bucket challenge has resurfaced and how you are supposed to nominate someone, well my school has been nominating different people and Eva got nominated by someone in her class. She was stood outside with one of her friends (even though I asked her to hang out that day) and before you do it your supposed to nominate someone and she nominated her boyfriend and this girl let’s call her Doris 15 (f). When she said these two names I felt really angry. I had expressed to her how much I wanted to do it and she chose her boyfriend and this girl over me. Some context for you Doris has been my number one bully since day one she would try and find my parents on social media, laugh at me with her friends, pull my hair and shove me into lockers, luckily she left the school a couple of months ago. Now Doris hates my guts and Eva knows that and chose her to do it over me (your supposed to nominate your friends) anyway I’m going back to school soon and I shall update you if anything more happens thank you for reading!
