View Full Version : Disappointed in a friend

I have a good mate and I have recently found out that the friend has told some acquantaince some awful things about me saying I am a nut case and my head is a mess due to things that happened to me as a child. :confused:
I am livid what would you do if this was you?
I kinda want revenge but that is not my style, I feel hurt and let down.
I am a nut case mind but not cause I been messed with (which this part of my life I can't recall but it must have happened cause they said so ) :shock: that's down to being a Woozle
:grouphug:
TBH, my approach would be to talk to the 3rd party (the person that was told) and explain that they'd get less bull**** if they went to a cattle market!!
Then, just cut the guilty party out, have nothing to do with them. It's not worth the stress.

I have done exactly that but still hurts toknow that someone I thought alot of obviously hates me and thinks it funny to talk about me. I guess they didnt expect me to have an indepth chat with the 3rd party.
Fireworks day may be early this year

p.s. Do you want me to repeat the process on your friend to 'learn' her like I did you!?!? :D
It takes a long time for me to tell people about myself/life/past in any detail.. A lot of talking and building trust. Should someone abuse that trust I'd be livid.. Have a think so that you can go and talk to both, say what you want to say, and get your point across without being irate.. Taking the time to think so you can calm down (twas days for me). Hope you sort things out ok..
confront him in front of all to show him up . See what he has to say then. Or ill get some mates and we will come up and have a word .

Who said it was a he :smt026
I am hoping the fact I never speak to this friend again will upset them. The fact what they told the 3rd party sounds complete tosh and I am mad that they would want to make me look like a fruit and nut case to get them looking good.
What goes around comes around and it need have no influence by me.
Sean, at this moment in time I can't ever see myself calming down. But I am sure I will in time as I am a big softy and will end up feeling sorry for my mate (ex mate).
Never talking to somebody again is something I wouldn't find particularly difficult. Gets your point across, if you can do it ;)

Sorry to hear this Shell... can understand you feeling betrayed. Take a few days to calm down as has already been suggested. Then when you`re calmer approach this friend. Afterwards you will still probably never want to speak to him/her again but at least you will have let them know how disgusted you are in them x

I have done this partially, then I got more information and I had already said my piece and good byes by then. I figured they can't respect me enough to do this to me so why should I let them know they have really hurt me.
Why do people manipulate others for their own means .. how cruel is that?

Oh I will hold you to that slap. I may enjoy it LOL.
Although I may be smiling again on Friday as I have a date with a biker mate (not an orger) who has been after me for ages. I have decided, if for the wrong reasons I don't care, to give in and see him. He is lovely and I put him off as I didnt have time for a bloke. For some unknown reason he has not given up the chase and he won ! Shell gave in to a man and I hope he can cheer me up and make me smile and forget my hassle.
I shall keep ya's updated ;)

First off before you go cutting off friendships it's surely worth double checking we haven't just got wires crossed here. Sounds like you're going on third hand information here and perhaps it's worth giving your friend the benefit of the doubt first? I agree that true friends wouldn't do that to you, but I also know that true friends balls things up from time to time.
As a potential scenario, is it possible that third party said something like "Shell went off on one over something completely innocuous I said", and your friend said "Go easy on her, she had a rough childhood that involved nasty scenario X/Y/Z", chinese whispers develop and somehow the impression gathered is that your friend has been telling stories and spilling personal sensitive confidences.

I will give the friend a chance to explain but I am going to hide some info I know for defo and see how they play it. Like keeping crucial evidence from a defense solicitor in interview and watching their client crumble in front of them :) ha ha ha I feel cruel as I am hurting, is that bad LOL
Shelly - if you know 100% what's been said and you didn't like it, I'd assess whether it's worth spending time trying to talk to him/her. Is what's been said something which can be brushed under the carpet and forgotten about? If it isn't then it's going to be hard to continue the relationship anyways, so might be best to call it quits.

No it can't be brushed under the carpet, I suppose all I want is to know why they did it. But I think you are right, calling it quits is the best.
Gutted but I have plenty of mates who I know are true.

Blimey, she must have it bad then.

Confront your friend....
Confront your friend....
+1 with that listen to what they say first
I'd be mad, but prob feel sad for said friend and cut them out (at least for a while).
If the most important thing in his/her life is to gossip about your personal matters, those that were intrusted to them, then they're either sad, lacking in sensitivity/compassion or simply thoughtless.
Next time you see him/her. Tell them you're really disappointed in them and leave it at that. Cut them out for a while, until they have properly appologised. If not, it's their loss.

Nah...it wouldn't bother me too much, it's not worth wasting time thinking about. Although if it is worrying you, perhaps you should either a) ask the offending friend about it outright, or b) don't tell them anything else about you from now onwards, c) invent something really juicy and tell them and see how long it takes to get back to you...thus making it really funny!
Thats the trouble with friends, it hurts more when one lets you down like this, Id confront them and get the truth out of em and take it from there, good luck with it :D

08-10-08, 01:02 PM
I agree with what many have already said, confront your "friend" and give them the opportunity to give their side of the story - is it possible that the 3rd party is the one doing the stirring??
Try and be calm and see what they have to say, if you don't like it or don't believe them, that's when you make the decision whether to cut them out. Betrayal is such a horrible thing to experience and I can only say from my own personal experience that if you feel yourself missing them, just remember what they've done, it gets easier. (Being a Scorpio helps as I can hold a grudge for yeeeeeears haha)
Can't make any comments on your nuttiness as I don't know you but you're not alone lol :smt026 Hugs x

Just read all your replies thank you for your advice. I didnt sleep much last night and I am finding it hard to work out fact from fiction in all this.
I tried to call my friend this morning and the phone was off, which made me fear something bad may have happened and that started me thinking into how much they mean to me and how I would miss them. I am a big softy and don't hold grudges and I figured life is too short. Maybe I have just calmed down, but I finally made contact and are going to meet up.
I have no intentions of arguing, I just want to hear the truth even if it is bad and I won't like it. Suppose I should forgive and be the better person.
I know my friend is hurting by what they have done and they have said sorry.
big hugs back to you all - fankoo xx

He/she'll get their comeuppance, tis a disgusting way to treat a friend and betray them like that. I personally wouldn't confront them as I'd be in danger of going completely off on one and no doubt saying something I'd regret, the silent treatment is usually a good bet. However, if you've only heard this from someone else then, as people have said, tis only fair to give them a chance. Only the one chance mind!
Hope you can start feeling better about it soon, this sort of thing is horrible to deal/cope/try and forget about #hug#
Shellywoozle
08-10-08, 09:48 PM
Well we have made up, I have listened to my mate's side and they are in bits. They are genuinly sorry and have admitted to the majority, maybe 3rd party did a bit of stirring.
Funny thing is I never shouted, never questioned the honesty and acted how I would not normally act in these situations. I used to be fiesty and firey, maybe I am calming down a bit - things will be forgotten as life is too short.
I am still hurting but in time those feelings will pass. But if they ever hurt me again I will not be so nice next time LOL
Hoping I can sleep tonight now and I may actually do some work tomorrow instead of day dreaming and getting angry !
Thanks all I needed to vent last night and you helped ! XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Yea but again they deserved it, overtaking me doing 45mph ;) in a 40mph zone whilst I was wearing my uniform gong past grinning at me, then driving like a *unt in front of me. So he gets a flash of me warrant card.
He then makes the poor devil in front of him pull over so he goes for the overtake just missing an on coming car, with me behind furious.
And for the record yes Daz heard it as i was on HANDS FREE !!
I was furious I was gonna go and have words with him at the next set of traffic lights, he only did it cause he saw my uniform.

Date, well lets just say I can't go into detail on the org as I don't want to appear to be misjudging the poor guy, but from a few things he said to me I will not be seeing him again. It was nothing personal about me but alarm bells rang as to his "personal interests" and due to my job I need to go with my gut instincts. He was only interested in watching TV and any conversation was instigated by me, I was bored to say the least LOL
Na yawn yawn yawn all the way LOL ..... and he smokes and I forgot about how much I hate smokers breath ! Sorry for all your smokers but for a non smoker it's an acquired taste ....... you smell it a mile of :(
