Lucky, I'm just on half term

Ohh that makes sense Gabby, hopefully you don’t have social anxiety?

Like break? If you don’t mind my asking here about are you?

I have a question

Yes?

shoot I forgot

Sorry I didn’t respond! If you remember you can ask!

I REMEMBER. it was about this girl who like,used to harass me. so like. basically, she said I was a liar for something I swear on my life I ain't faking. you can ask what it is if you want but I won't put it just like. on this specific message. so she went around calling my a liar so all my friends HATED me. yeah. his year she sent me this massive apology email and my new friends say she's changed. do you think I should forgive her?

Oh my gosh! I’m so sorry you went through that!!! You do not have to share if you don’t want to! Your old friends sound terrible for believing her, first off. Honestly the saying forgive and forget is not true. Never forget what someone’s done to you. She ruined your friendship, which is good because they weren’t the best anyway (not to sound mean at all), but she lied about you. I would say be VERY hesitant about everything around this girl, please just be careful around everyone. You can forgive her, but do not be all buddy buddy with her because of what’s she’s done to you.

yeah I think so. cuz all my friends are friends with her! cuz I feel like, if one hates me they all will

Ohh that’s rough, losing friends is annoying. But it also makes you realize stuff.
Also, this girl sounds like she wanted to ruin your friendship circle for fun

Maybe she’s insecure or jealous of you?

idk tbh. cuz like, I highly doubt she's jealous of me, especially since she had the most friends at that time. she knew I was anxiety ridden, especially when we first met THAT Year.

most people say that it's cuz of her depression, and don't get me wrong Im not going to be mean about that. I had depression though and I don't think that means destroying friendships for fun, more like by accident.

Okay, knowing someone has anxiety and then targeting it is so toxic (no offense). I have social anxiety too so I 100% understand what you’re going through.
Okay, first off I’m sorry for you. Second, she shouldn’t be ruining friendships to ruin them. People struggle with stuff and not having a good friend circle is so annoying. This is not a fun situation, I really feel bad and am so sorry! She seems like she’s in a very confused state of mind right now

yeah, right I'll admit it to you, so basically, the whole reason this started, was cuz she called me a liar for my tic disorder. 😶. if you don't know what that is Google it and the causes. and yeah, she chose to bully me for a neurological disorder which just. yknow, makes me so happy! 😶😶😶

sorry if that's too much I'm known to over share 😅

How can you lie about a disorder that is not really fakeable?! First off, who cares if you have a disorder (not at all mean, I just mean it’s who you are) because you’re an amazing person I’m sure. Second off that is just petty of her

That’s not overshading at all! Your 100% fine, I know I undershare a lot though 😂

I undershare offline 😅😅
and over share online.

but yeah. so I've just been like. idk what to doooooo for ages

I just undershare. So you have to pull stuff out of me 😂 don’t be afraid to ask me 😂
Sometimes we just be ourselves and need confidence!

well. feel free to over share to me! (warning I may struggle to reply lol I'm not good at advice but id try!)

Awww thank you!

High school for me!!!

noice, I think, maybe not, I hate secondary lol. you might like it! idk, do you?

That's horrible...I absolutely hate when people think it is perfectly fine to bully someone because they have a disability or disorder?? In fact bullying anyone at all isn't cool and then proceeds to convince your friends on her side?? That's not cool of her at all. If I were you I wouldn't accept that apology at all but the again it is your call ofcc!!

OMG I am so sorry you've had a terrible experience especially from teachers?? Besides what's wrong if you got a 16/20 theres nothing wrong with that?? And being bullied should def not be normalized at all if we went to the same school together I would love to be your friend!! (irl ofccc)

awwww thank youuu this year's going okay though, after more drama with teachers and stuff though, I made more friends 💖
