Not to give her ticket she paid for?

My "friend" last year caused a lot of trouble for me and refused to pay back a large sum of money.
We were meant to go on holiday but she stopped me from going (after I paid ) as she had the tickets.
Like the fool I am I forgave her.
Me ,her and another girl bought tickets to see a band in April.
I ordered the tickets on my card but she paid.
Anyway she's fell out with me again and has been telling lies about me to this other girl.
This other girl has told me I'm no longer welcome to go to this concert with them and will I post their two tickets.
Now il happily post this girls ticket but my "friend" owes me £400 and now she's made sure I can't go to this concert with them out of spite.
What do I do ?

Of course it's relevant if you were seeing/sleeping with "Friend" B and she has put the brakes on because of Friend A!

whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 16:51

I think the fact friend A fell out with me and she's close to her complicated things.
Then I was looking for answers and she got sick of me asking.
Friend A is manipulative but like friend B said we were never a "couple" so it doesn't matter.
It's all a proper mess.
I just feel awful and I think that's why I'm struggling

I think it’s about time you all grew up! Step well away from Friend A, don’t give her the ticket! Friend B will see friend A for what she really is, tell friend B she can collect ticket! Fuck them both off, and really work on your own self esteem, and I mean this in the kindest way!

whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 17:20

I was tempted to say to friend B collect it if you want but thought that might guess more Agro.

If you do post it, make sure it's the signed for and insured service.

CowBarf · 17/01/2020 17:25

You need to back away from them both and get better friends.

whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 17:28

Yeah il post it recorded

when we first met we went out I guess on a date and have slept together (she's gay and I'm bisexual ) but said she wasn't wanting a relationship
I had a boyfriend since then too and everything just got messy.
We haven't slept together since December, friend A had been telling her I was like her ex (controlling etc ) I think that's a reason she backed off.

OP.. I'm really sorry but this changes the entire situation.. plus with your previous constant texting and calling.. could make you appear controlling... it looks obsessive OP..

however onward and upward... I'm glad to see you've distanced yourself and stopped trying to contact her... stay positive and take care yourself.. Flowers

WhenISnappedAndFarted · 17/01/2020 18:13

I agree it does change things as well.

Maybe it was just a bit too much for friend B. You said it's a big thing not speaking to her for two days, maybe the friendship was a little bit OTT for her and this is her chance to back away a bit.

A is a bully and B isn't interested. They've both made their positions clear to you.

whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 18:42

Friend B up until last week was the one who initiated most of the texting.
She 100% used to text me more than her but something changed last week.

OP posts:
whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 18:44

The thing with friend B is she doesn't give answers,I knew she was sleeping with other girls and I was jealous.
I knew she didn't want a relationship but I had friend A in her ear twisting the knife.
It's just all messed up.

mummmy2017 · 17/01/2020 18:46

No you have made as read friendship for interest.
Stop you dreams of if only and pretending B cares, she has shown you are nothing to her.
Please go out and have fun with friends

whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 18:48

I know that's the worst bit ...realising I meant nothing.
I can't mope tho,it's pointless.

Living your best life, it's a great karma.

AllHeart1 · 17/01/2020 19:20

Yep. I said yesterday there was something you weren’t telling us and I was right.

Reading about the obsessive texting made me think that you were acting like a jilted lover and it seems I was right.

And you do come across as obsessive and controlling. I can see now why she has backed off. Do you and friend A have the same kind of history? Because if so then her reaction is understandable as well....

TBH I don’t think either of them are the bitches you’ve wanted to portray or that you’re as much of a victim here.

whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 19:24

@AllHeart1 obsessive and controlling ?
How on earth do you work that out ?

OP posts:
whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 19:25

@AllHeart1 the only history me and friend A have is her taking money and not paying me back

OP posts:
WhenISnappedAndFarted · 17/01/2020 19:34

You've said that you just want friend B to like you and know you're a nice person. You've slept with together, you both message each other frequently and that you know she's not interested and has told you that she isn't.

You like her and get jealous of other women but the feeling isn't reciprocated. I don't think she's dealt with it very well but you've really got to cut them both off.

Angiemum24 · 17/01/2020 19:36

I think A has a thing for you and was jealous.
If I were you I’d step away from both of them and let them have each other.

whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 19:45

@WhenISnappedAndFarted it was weird because we had some dates but was always telling me she didn't want a relationship.
Then she would send me screenshots of all the girls who she was talking too.
I told her I was jealous.
I started to get jealous when she showed me their pics etc
Then if I was out with her and she checked other girls out I was jealous.

SisterAgatha · 17/01/2020 19:53

This hugely changes things. I had an kncling when you said you’d text that you were low and needed a friend. Needing a friend is the thing people always say when a relationship isn’t working out and they want to guilt the person in to talking. Sorry OP, back off now. She’s told you so do it.

whatdoidorr · 17/01/2020 20:00

I was actually feeling low.

CokeAndCrispsAndDip · 17/01/2020 20:21

OP, you need to cut ties with both of them and try your very best to move on. All this is doing is causing you anxiety and upset. None of us know truly the whole scenario because you'd be typing forever, but constantly going over it all will just do your head in. Yes it hurts, but we can't make people be nice and no one is worth it if you have to convince them to be your friend.

I've moved an awful lot in my life, had to start over again and establish friendships, it's an amazing thing if you find even 1 quality friend. I have friends, but I only have 1 who would be there for me no matter whatband I know for a fact she would never be swayed by someone trying to convince her I was a bad person. She accepts me just as I am including the annoying bits.

Take a deep breath, delete their numbers and wipe your messages and call history with them so you're not tempted. It's like a break up, you desperately want to know where it all went wrong but you wont get those answers. Grieve the friendships and take time to heal. The best way is silence from you, it will help you heal and probably piss them off wondering why to Wink

C'mon lady, big breath and delete

rubyandbumpsmum · 17/01/2020 21:05

This is insane. You do sound very obsessive.....
But also it's almost like your their entertainment.
I can guarantee if they messaged you now saying "ok we will all go then" you would be skipping straight back there.

You sound like you dont understand boundaries. Also you need to accept their wishes and not contact them.
Maybe friend A wasnt comfortable with you both being in this weird 'thing' and not simply her friends. This info does change everything.

AzraiL · 17/01/2020 21:49

Have you posted before? About liking friend B a lot and wanting to pursue things with her and friend A interfering? I can't help but feel this is familiar. I think I recall us all telling you to back off. Is it you?
