'friend' problems

[starodyssey2015]

I've been friends with this girl for years. And in the past few years we've strayed apart, she makes no effort and I've kind of accepted the friendship is over. I'd of liked to have kept her on Facebook if she ever fancies rekindling the relationship.

However, I feel bullied by her friends. Everytime I like or comment on something on her Facebook someone makes a nasty comment at me, someone even called me desperate the other day because I asked if she was in our area. I honestly have no idea what I've done to deserve this. In fact just now she was 'fraped' and they commented on my Facebook status calling me names. She deleted it and I said whoever did that is a nob and she called me rude. Like for gods sake I think it's justified when I've never ever done anything to them. Some of them I haven't even met! Her boyfriend was my childhood best friend and even he's started doing it!

Im a grown woman with a husband and a child and I am being bullied! I'm getting really annoyed and upset by this and it's just got to the point where I want them all out of my life for good but I don't want to cause a feud incase I see her about.

Should I say something to her?

Fb is not the medium for that message, imho. If you have to, have to, have to say it to her, then pick up the phone and say it directly to her. Then you can get a real time response without angsting for a response from her. But I don't think she would be nice to you in a phone call either. Stop volunteering for the poor treatment, it is (as stated up thread) just too desperate.
She has already dumped you, sorry to be so blunt.
Dump her back: complete radio silence. Blank her. Just stop it.

Sorry you are going through this. I know it hurts. But the sooner you detach, the sooner you can feel better and move on.

If I saw anyone do that to a friend of mine on FB, I'd be having words.

She isn't. That should tell you a lot.

Sounds all very schoolyard to me - block her and forget her.

sounds like she has had a friend 'cull' and you have been cut out. Its happened to me and its not nice, but its beneath your dignity to try and continue to leave lines of communication open just in case. She is probably telling her friends things about you and now you are coming across as desperate, so even more open to bullying. Leave it alone. Why do you want to be her friend?

Thanks everybody. I've just blocked her from my newsfeed. If she says anything not nice I'm just going to delete the comment and be done with it. Just realised she's not a friend. More than anything I'm pissed off that I was her only friend when her dad died. And you're right. It is very schoolyard and I'm going to rise above it. Thanks to all who commented. X

Your friend and her little cronies.

You need to block her full stop not just the newsfeed. If anything further gets said then you won't be able to see it to care iykwim.
No one needs 'friends' like these.

Block her and all her friends. Then delete. Onwards and upwards
