I'll try and keep it as short as possible.
I moved to a new department around 3 months ago and became friends with someone there. (He's gay so no romantic involvement if that's relevant)
He came out and told me a week ago that back when we became friends that a woman in our department (moved from the same department as myself) had messaged him and told him to stay away from me and then listed all these things I had done (in an email at work)
Really disgusting things that were complete lies.
Now he expects me to do nothing about what's been said and to just forget it.
I spoke to my manager to get advice and I said I didn't want her confronted because then it would make things awkward for my friend.
He then rings me up and demands I don't take it further because he doesn't want his emails looked into.
This has put me back on my anti depressants and i just can't see them in the same way. Aibu?
