I will try to make this as short as possible but it’s a long story..
my best friend stopped talking to me for over 6 months in 2022 (I wrote a whole post on here about it), we ended up talking again, although I kept her at arms length as I didn’t want to be hurt again. Christmas time last year we got quite close again. Fast forward to middle of January a mutual friend who I happen to work with asked me if I thought my best friend was having an affair with a married man (something she has been accused of before), I defended my best friend and carried on the conversation. Come the beginning of Feb I received a message from my best friend asking me if I told our mutual friend that she had told me the man she was excused of having an affair with was actually having an affair with someone else! I was shocked and explained that I had defended her and not said anything about anyone having affairs with anyone else. Turned out our mutual friend decided to twisted a comment I had made about said married man being really good friends with another woman. I almost lost my job over this as well, luckily I had 2 witnesses who heard the whole conversation and agreed I didn’t say what I was accused of. I spoke to my best friend and thought we had sorted things out, however she has completely stopped talking to me again.
I am really hurt that she believes I would say anything like that but also totally confused why she has completely stopped talking to me again.
AIBU for not being able to just forget it and move on like everyone is telling me to?
