To be feeling awkard

Hi,

I much happier in my life that I no longer chat to a friend that knew from childhood. (Let me call her Sarah).We were very close like sister. A situation happened and caused her to be horrible to the point I tried to be there for her as no longer live nearby. By calling, texting but got ignored. I feel better not to be hearing her situation. Although it sad what happened just no reason be like this towards me.

Through this situation I got closer to one Sarah's friend.( I call her Gina)
Then this was when I realized Sarah was starting to distance herself. Also Sarah and Gina fell out too.

Cut long story short is Sarah has another friend let (me call her Carly). I met Carly through Gina but had heard of Carly a lot from Sarah too but we never until now.

I now am in situation where I chat to Carly who speaks to Sarah and tell me about issues she has with her. Also Gina says stuff too.
But then I think how do you think feel.

Saying I don't mind listening but I get angry how I am hearing of Sarah acting innocent and treating this ladies like this.

One day I did have a go Sarah on the phone totally went mad. Then we text and she said I was being used. Think when it came to Gina.
Then Sarah sister made a comment that I might have only stopped talking to her because of Gina. Which that was not the case.
We all got our own issues with Sarah.

Do I just listen to these two? I said something to Gina I am not wasting my time on Sarah. Carly just about talks to her but she is knows now I met Carly through Gina.

I feel like I need to say something to Sarah family when I see them to make it clear that it's not Gina or anybody why we don't talk. Sarah does not text and she does not care about me at all. So why should I now. I am happy I don't see her though. That is funny thing. We as friends were never open and honest me and Sarah. Until situation happened. I felt I was used in this.

So much has happened.

OP: here is a book you should buy instead of worrying about Sarah, Gina and who-ever.

How to Write It, Third Edition: A Complete Guide to Everything You'll Ever Write (How to Write It: Complete Guide to Everything You'll Ever Write) by Sandra E Lamb - this book will enrich your life no end (and ours if it makes your posts understandably) Smile

Op, can you please give me some advice? I have a close friend called Melanie A, and she's going out with Dave. Dave's ex, Samantha has recently gained a lot of weight. Me and my friend Lauren are unsure what to do about this. My dog, sally, can't walk very far at the moment as she has a hurt leg, but her sister's friend's cousin's owner is really judgy about it which is making me really upset. Anyway Jolene got fired on Friday for calling in sick but she wasn't sick because my brother saw her shopping with my neighbour's dog's canary. So I really need some advice?

Seriously I think some of you need to grow the up.*

Really? Us? HmmGrin

mpeters82 Were you born in 1982 which would make you 36 years old OP? You sound very young and this situation you have going on sounds confusing and petty. Just don’t talk to any of them anymore. There. Problem solved

Whitecurrants · 24/02/2018 22:59

This reads like somebody has unleashed a chat bot on the board.

Gide · 24/02/2018 23:02

I’ve had six margaritas and this still makes no sense. Grin

I’ve had a lotof vodka and I admit, I’m struggling!

BatFacedGirl · 24/02/2018 23:09

RJnomore1 · 24/02/2018 23:14

There's a lot of twattery on this thread.

You should be ashamed. You are not funny.

mpeters82 · 24/02/2018 23:21

You are so immature.

This why I am glad none of got it.

Such a shame you gives MN a bad name

From your posts it seems the only thing Sarah did wrong was not contact you/reply to messages. If she went through something horrible, it’s white common for people to clam up or not know/have anything to say to anyone. Even more so with depression.

With so little information it’s hard to say what’s what in this story.

I guess just say to Gina and Carly that you just don’t want to hear about Sarah and crack on if you like their company...

AnoiaUnstickMyDrawers · 24/02/2018 23:21

OP, you don't have to listen to the other two talking about Sarah. Just have a calm chat with them about how hearing about her upsets you and you would prefer not to talk about her.

mpeters82 · 24/02/2018 23:22

Well, that's all sorted then,, but you didn't say if Carlys operation went well,,and if her brothers dog is ok now, as these things are more important than Sarah.
