Fell out with a friend a couple of weeks ago. Wont go into details but it happened. She let me down when I needed her and decided I didnt need her in my life anymore.

She owed me some money so she had to come and give it to me at work. I told her to post it under the door, but claimed she couldnt so had to open the door and speak to her. She got upset and I wanted her out of the way so told her I would contact her in a few days.

Blocked her number. Gave her number to my sister in case I needed it for whatever reason in the future and she texted her.

I now keep getting texts off random numbers asking why I wont speak to her and keeps asking me to forgive her. I keep blocking her but she keeps messaging me. And im getting silent phone calls.

AIBU?

What's your question?
It all sounds very dramatic.

She does sound persistent.

Is there no going back?

Sounds pretty harsh too. Without knowing the details it's impossible to say. It sounds as though you have really given her the cold shoulder with no explanation and she's upset because of that.

I cant go into details as it will probably out me as I know a few people who are on here and know about the situation. She has let me down before though and she seems to think she can do things to make it up to me and then let me down again. Im talking i get 3/4 texts a day. 7 missed calls today and 2 texts.

"OMG i cant believe that happened"

"whats up hun?"

"I'll pm you"

Someone lets you down 3 times, then calls you 7 times in one day. Sends countless texts. Is someone saying thats normal Confused

From what I can see you've just refused to face her/talk to her, yes? If she hasn't done anything that makes her a danger to you then would it not just be easier to either have one face to face conversation with her (or at least one phone conversation) and explain why you feel hurt and that you won't be in touch with her any more?

No, it's not normal, but your behaviour also sounds a bit odd. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding your post. Why give your sister her number? Could you not just have written it down? Why did your sister text her?

Putting an envelope under the door? Someone would have to have REALLY treated me or mine appallingly before I considered such a dramatic response.

What the hell did she do?

Depends what one considers a let-down.

She might be selfish and/or a flake, or you might be a diva with too-high expectations.

Not enough info to make the call from your posts so far, soz.

You're being too vague for anyone to form an opinion. What did she do? If you can't say how can anyone tell you how to go forward?

You aren't being stalked. You could stretch it and say you are being harassed. But that would be more than one day of it happening.

It's impossible to tell which of you is unreasonable

She did something once, gave her another 2 chances and she let me down which could of cost me my job. I cant go into anymore detail than that.

It doesn't matter what she has done, if you feel that she has let you down then you have every right to cut her from your life. Is changing your phone number an option?

You could talk to each other face to face like adults and either try and resolve it or tell her the friendship is over and you want to cut contact. All this vagueness doesn't help your cause op.

"Blocked her number. Gave her number to my sister in case I needed it for whatever reason in the future and she texted her."
I'm confused. Who texted who? Your sister texted ex-friend, or vice versa? And why did one text the other?

"I now keep getting texts off random numbers asking why I wont speak to her and keeps asking me to forgive her. I keep blocking her but she keeps messaging me. And im getting silent phone calls."
I see no reason to not contact her by text or email to say 'I don't want to speak to you because of XYZ, and I don't want you to contact me again'. Because you did tell her that "I would contact her in a few days". So just get on with it and get it over with. Sheesh.

I don't see any real problem in what you've done. You are under no obligation whatsoever to continue in a relationship with anyone if you don't want to. It might be worth sending her an email telling her to leave you alone but you certainly don't owe her anything Confused
I cut off a crap friend for similar reasons but I sent her an email stating exactly why I didn't want to be friends anymore and to be honest, I kind of wish I hadn't bothered with the detail. It just made me feel shit really. I wish I'd just said I'm don't want to be friends now, and left it at that. I think you should just do something like that. Face to face confrontation is hard for lots of people so why put yourself through it?

Op unless she's done something really terrible then you don't sound very nice. She's probably better off without you.
Perhaps she is contacting you in order to apologise or make amends?
Do you know why she "let you down?", sometimes you don't know everything that's going on in another person's life. She shouldn't have let you down but her life doesn't revolve around you and she may have had good reasons?
