To think this person wasn't much of a friend if..

[NC4THIS11]

Myself and a handful of childhood friends are in a group chat, last night whilst I was asleep three of them were chatting and one of the guys (friend A) was being a bit of a twat. He's a nice person but is one of those who like to 'banter' and has a sarcastic sense of humor, but apparently he doesn't like it when people clap back.

Friend B who's female retaliated by bringing up something embarrassing to him from 18 years ago, it was something I was there to witness.

I can only assume I'm being blamed for 'reminding' her about it as I've now been blocked by friend A from all platforms and effectively lost a friend of over 20 years.

I knew nothing about what was being said until I got up this morning, read the chat and found myself blocked.

Aibu to think he's immature and not much of a friend to start with if he's going to stonewall me over something somebody else has said?

Was the other friend there to see it originally?

No, regrettably the information did come from me to start with - but when we were young teenagers.

Think of 13 year olds gossiping, not a lovely thing to do but in hindsight can be chalked up to being kids.

It was a long time ago and me and friend A had been close ever since, well into our adult years.

So, he’s ditched you because you told someone something embarrassing about him, not specifically because “over something somebody else has said.”

OK, he should probably let it go after all these years but it’s not quite the scenario in your OP.

You didn’t “remind” B of anything, you told her! 🙄

That said, sounds as A is a bit of a dick. Are you sure he’s a great loss?

What has B got to say for herself?

Me and A fell out over it for a few weeks when we were kids, I apologized and made amends (learned a lesson on gossiping and wouldn't have repeated the same scenario)

We were fine ever since, throughout our teens and into adult years, always in contact and sharing updates about our children and lives etc until "B" brought it up again last night then block.

"A" clearly felt embarrassed and I can empathize but feel its a bit uncalled for all these years later to cut me off over something we moved past that somebody else brought up

I told "B" she was out of line but she said he shouldn't have been goading her

has he blocked B too or just you?

Are you sure you've all left school

I'd check

He's blocked me, B and another friend who had nothing to do with anything

I need to know what happened.

Me too.

It would depend what the incident was but assuming it was the kind of embarrassing thing he'd mock other people about then he sounds dramatic and immature.
