Will it EVER end????

[Katzi428]

All right everyone,for a refresher (and those who are new here in MC) I've been friends since my freshman year of high school (grade 9) with a girl (now woman) who was like a sister to me.Our birthdays are 2 days apart (same year but she's 2 days older) & we'd been here for each other through thick & thin.
Lately I have no idea what's up with her! She criticizes me about a lot of things (like my weight.I'm not skinny,I'll give you that much. But her mother? I could say a LOT about the mother to my friend but I won't.) On the cruise, I was bugged a lot by my so called friend. Here's an example. There was a 5 K walk for cancer,and she wanted me to sign up. I told her no because I have trouble walking.So she got mad! Then she asked my mother (when I wasn't around) if I was going to come and cheer her on.Mom said probably not (which was fine) because the walk started at around 8AM. My mother told me about this & then later on my friend said she was only kidding about me coming down.She shouldn't have said anything to make me feel so darn guilty!!
Today I was told that her parents & her were coming over for pizza & so that my mom & her parents could play cards.Now I wasn't feeling well all day (which is besides the point but I didn't want to put up with any of her criticism) So her parents came over..but she didn't! (She wanted to stay home & read ) I had mixed emotions. I was glad she didn't come over because I didn't feel 100% but I was also annoyed because what's more important;a book or me?
She's on diabetic medication that might be affecting her moods. So maybe that's why she's being a But I take medicine too! Do I go jumping all over her case?NO!!
Sorry for the long post,you all.At least I can depend on YOU as my friends.
Kathy

*hugs Kathy* Kath, you know we all love you. And don't worry, I'm sure this is just something your friend is going through. It'll pass, I mean you wouldn't have been friends with her for this long if it didn't. And trust me, I'm going through something like this...My friends are all changing around me and I think we just need time to adapt to it. So (((((HUGS))))) and keep well!

((((HUGS)))) to you Kathy, I know how frustrating it can be when friends don't understand us. I hope things get better.

**hugs to you Kathy** That is really dissapointing. Just try to get through it! I've been on both sides of the fence, so I know that there's no one solution. But at least you can vent here and we will take care of you. ((((((((**HUGS**))))))))

 

[Katzi428]

Thanks (((((everyone))))
My friend(?) had never pulled this garbage on me before (I have a stronger word than "garbage" but this being a family forum I won't use it.) The weird thing is that she never criticized me around my family or hers. She probably knew something would be said.
I have more stuff to say on this subject but my computer decided to be a pain in the neck & wouldn't let me back Online when I was starting to post about this.

Oh, that's awful Kathy. (((Hugs))).
Yeah, my friends sometimes throw moodies too. If it goes to far, I'd ask her way she is being so hurtful. I mean I'd ask her in a not nastily way, but in a sort of sublte kinda way. That's what I'd do anyways, I mean that's just me!!

Dr. Kiki has spoken, neeeeeeeeh!

(btw, I'm sure things will turn out for the best, m'kay?)

Sorry I've only just noticed this thread Kathy. Of course I have been away. I hope things get smoothed over. If she keeps on being unfeeling toward you maybe she never was your true friend at all

But I pray you get over this trouble and are led by God to what you should do to handle the situation.

Bless you Kathy

Sorry to hear that Kathy. I went through a really hard time in high school and to get rid of how much it all bothered me, I was not good to myself. It really does suck, and if you need to talk, shoot me a PM....
