Monologue

I’ve been best friends with one of my best friends for eight years. We’ve gotten into a fight or two, but over stupid things. But senior year I went on vacation with two of my other friends. We went out one night and one of her friends, who I wasn’t very fond of, came to hang out with us. We had fun that night just hanging out. The next day I went to go bbm her but I noticed she was no longer one of my contacts. So I texted her asking if she deleted me and she didn’t answer me. I was really confused and just assumed something happened to her phone. I later went on twitter and saw that she had tweeted something not very nice. So I assumed she was mad at me or something.  We worked together at the time, and the weekend that I got back from my vacation she wouldn’t speak to me or look at me. I was really confused because I didn’t do anything or even say anything to make her mad at me. Time went on and she didn’t speak to me. On graduation day I texted her, congratulating her and to enjoy college. She surprisingly answered back telling me that we needed to talk. I told her to let me know when. Two weeks later she texted me telling me to meet up with her. We met up and she had told me that the reason she de-friended me. Her friend that hung out with us during our vacation had told her that I was saying bad things about her and her private life. I was very upset that she had believed her and didn’t confront me about it. So we made up and spent almost everyday of the summer together. I learned from this experience that you can’t listen to what everyone says and take it so seriously, especially if you how that person is (if they’re a pathological liar, etc). Also, I learned that if I’m very mad at someone, I’m not going to de-friend them unless I get their side of the story as well.
