That sucks about your best friend. I definitely know how that is And as for your father, that sucks :/ I'm very glad we're not Catholic (we're Pentecostal)! Have fun at your concert!! And I hope you get home safely Also, congrats on getting all that money for your schooling!!
You shouldn't have to put up with it and it definitely is scary essentially losing someone you've known since prepubescence. It's not easy, not at all. It seems like she really is taking advantage of how forgiving and kind you are which is even worse imo. Whatever you decide to do, I wish you the best.
Also, I've tried asking her, but it either ends up in some kind of stupid argument over basically nothing or she just ignores it. She claims she has a boyfriend, but whenever me or another friend (we're in a group chat) asks who it is, she either says "A boy" or "Not telling you". So as of now I'm not sure whether or not she has one. If she does, she says we're not allowed to meet him. So I'm not sure what's up with that. I'll keep trying to find out what's wrong though!
@ kitsch I've contemplated ending the friendship. I really don't want to be friends with someone that does what she does and neither does the friend in my group chat that I mentioned above. He has no problem not being friends with her anymore. I guess I'm just scared because we've been friends since we were eight so I can't imagine my life without her yet. We've also been in a situation like this before, but we got through it the first time. But I'll for sure say something to her if she continues, which at this point I think she will.
Seriously, take it from someone that knows how a situation like that goes: they're not worthy to be in your life anymore. They don't "fit"; people change and will leave our lives but the ones that stay matter greatly. That's sort of how my initial best friend ended our friendship. We're on civil terms, but I was really annoyed at the time when she would hang out with other people and confide in them about stuff.
Just know that allowing people, friends or otherwise, to treat you poorly is excusing them from any responsibility for their hurtful actions. Because what she's doing is extremely detrimental to not only what's left of your friendship, but you as a human being. It's so petty imo. She needs to either grow up or get out.
That's awesome on the college thing! My top university made me a similar offer, as for your friend just ask her what's up. Call her up and say hey, was there something that I said or did that you didn't like? Does she have a new boyfriend? I just got a new boyfriend and I spend a lot of time with him now, my friends don't see me as much as they would like to but they know that I'm just happy. If the friendship it worth it then don't let it die, try to fix it. Put the ball in her court by saying hey we need to talk if she doesn't respond then she probably has an issue with you or she just might not wanna be friends anymore, either way you deserve to know! Good luck with the situation and have fun at the concert, don't let your parents kill your good time!!!
