Worst friend you ever had

Lounge
1

The worst friend I ever had was a woman I worked with.

We we were in our very early twenties.

She wasn’t nice to me when I first started working there.

But after a few weeks we got pretty close,

Before I knew it we were besties.

She developed a pretty big crush on the doctor we worked for.

He was married with a couple kids.

After a year of very awkward, yet still intense flirting,

They began an affair.

I had the honor of being present when the wife found out.

That’s another story.

The wife divorced him and the doctor proposed to my friend.

She was pretty wrapped up in her life with him and we weren’t hanging out as much,

So we planned a girls trip to Vegas.

I thought we were just going to have fun and check it out.

Neither of us had been before and we were just of age.

We did Vegas stuff for a day or so (it was a week long trip).

Then, at a nightclub, I lost her.

Went around looking to see if she was okay,

Found her.

Mostly naked on the dance floor.

Surrounded by horny, strange men.

I pulled her aside,

Yelled at her, told her to put her clothes on and leave the bar.

Some weirdo, much older guy came up to her like they were together and tried to start a fight with me.

I was young and didn’t know what to do,

So I kind of backed down and observed her.

After I walked away, the man presented her with a mysterious substance and invited her to the VIP section.

That was the last time I saw her until the day of our flight.

When she came back to the hotel, she was let in by staff.

She had no keycard because she lost her purse.

When I say she looked terrible,

She was like barely recognizable as herself.

I told her our flight was coming up and I was going to get breakfast first.

She packed and went with me to breakfast.

During which she admitted to what she had done.

Doesn’t take a lot of imagination to figure that.

We got back to the office the next week and tensions were high.

She was terrified I was going to tell the doctor what happened in Vegas.

So, she started a fight with me, at work.

She told the doctor he had to fire me or she was leaving.

Obviously, he fired me.

She cried and yelled, called me names and left the office.

Soon as she stepped out of the door he asked what happened.

I told him everything.

Then I demanded severance and a glowing letter of recommendation.

Got both.

They married and divorced within a couple years.

She was the worst friend I ever had.

You?

My worst friends involved dealing drugs, but I’m gonna keep that story to myself.

You’re a storyteller btw. You like telling stories.

Where’s the bonfire?

I do like telling stories.

I don’t know how it comes off in text,

But among my friends and family,

I am the storyteller.

Everyone always asks me to tell the story because I do it best.

It’s a gift.

What can I say?

I think it’s mostly because of he insane hand gestures and facial expressions.

That doesn’t super translate here.

nice story. My post will not be nearly as interesting.

Back when I was 19 or so I had some “friends” that used to steal ■■■■ out of my house. I let them stay there because they were friends of a friend. Anyway, every time I bought a pipe, it would always disappear, other small stuff, cds, etc. Anyway, because they had other friends I didnt trust at all, I used to lock my playstation in my room while I was gone. One day I came home from work and my bedroom door had been busted open and playstation and games were gone.

Needless to say at that point, I kicked both of them out and barred their friends from coming over. It taught me a serious lesson about giving out charity to untrustworthy people and pointed out my naivety to myself.

I also called the police and got most of my money back from insurance.

So anyway, those were the worst “friends” I can think of.

Not my present best friend but my last. We were besties for 14 years. She moved away to another State the SAME month that my son died! The very last thing she told me on the phone was: Gina, you’re fat, stupid, ugly, and uncreative!

A few years later, she contacted me and had the gall to tell me she loved me and wanted to rekindle the friendship.

I have had the pleasure of knowing several shitasses.

  1. My BFF took my debit card and drained my bank account. I caught him and he paid me back but he never apologized. Kicked him to the curb.

  2. Another supposed friend just used me to get what he wanted like helping him with homework and other school stuff. Honestly I laugh at him now. Some people are just dumb.

  3. Another friend would bum rides off me to work. I thought we were having a good time listening to Ozzy and other 90s rock music. Nope! Didn’t amount to anything.

  4. I have been pretty open about what the IT did to me when I was ten years old. This thing isn’t even a person in my book.

I am not a storyteller but all of these people taught me to keep my guard up and to assume that people present way different then who they really are.

When I was a kid, like in elementary school, there were three girls that lived behind me. There was one my age who was the youngest. The middle sister would hold me underwater at least a few times when I was in their pool. She would also say I was annoying when I was over. I was only 5-7 years old. So, I probably was annoying at that age to someone three years older. It’s like they were frienemies. I don’t know why I was hanging out with the older sister.

Anyway, I don’t remember why, but we stopped talking. Then a year or two later they left a note for me in the chain link fence trash talking another girl we had all been friends with. We talked for a while and then stopped again. I don’t remember what happened. Anyway, not great friends.

My ex ex.

He used to compare me to my sister, in a very cruel way aswell.

One moment I was so beautiful, the next moment I was a list of derogatory cruel terms. (when he didn’t get what he wanted off me)
Eg., sex or money or my time, at midnight when I was sleeping in my bed.

Ive had “freinds” that were constantly on the ponce. Can you lend us a tenner? Have you got any tobacco? Can i borrow your tablet? Always on the scrounge.

I let them get away with it cos i was lonely. Sometimes you got to naff them all off - and realise your better off on your own.

The women and their sob storys get me. Always running out of electric and food. One in particular. And i was wondering why my benefits were not lasting. Never ever paid it back, come their payday they would disappear.

Round here - any sign of generosity is seen as a weakness.

Just the other day - i got asked three times for money. Two in town, and the pothead upstairs.

I just say my money is managed by my brother now, and i dont have access to it.

I had one, let’s name her Jay.

She was a few years older than me, but was somewhat infantile. She had three conversation topics in her repertoir: funny things her mom said, cute things her moms dog did, someome saying something that offended her.

  • She would call me several times a week just to rant for 15 minutes about the most recent (perceived) insult from someone and then give a halfassed apology for ranting and hang up.

  • She invited me for dinner once, and joked several times with a more and more concerning intensity that I could at least put out now that she’d fed me.

  • When our friendship ended, this 30+ woman tracked down my mum and told her a twisted version of every wrong I had ever done. She also spread rumors in my hometown that I had relapsed and would be moving in with my mum, who was apparently moving there to care for me full time.

Someone once told me, if everyone around you are a-holes, there’s a good chance the real a-hole is you.

I had a roommate
He was using meth
He stole my clothes
He got a mattress and placed it on our apartment though he knew it had bed bugs
He didn’t take his meds
He was ingesting chemicals from the dumpster (like paint thinner and industrial chemical cleaners)
He stole my Wii and video games
He didn’t shower
Didn’t pay back money I lent him
Dragged me into sketchy meth deals
Stole my car one night
He didn’t clean up after himself so I did everything to make it nice n tidey
He blasted metal music all night long while tweaking
He bargained his food stamps for drugs so I paid for the groceries

Matter of fact, the only thing that he ever contributed was rent and that was only because he had a payee :sweat:

From 16 to 19 I had a bff. We did everything together. She was a kleptomaniac, but I didn’t hold that against her. She doublecrossed everyone she knew. At 19 I had a psychotic break. I saw my friend after that a few times. She was supposed to visit for Christmas. I spent an hour at the Greyhound station looking for her, until I realized she wasn’t there. I sent her an angry letter. I never heard from her again. It has been 40 years. I guess she thought I was a crazy person and didn’t want to be friends with me. It kind of hurt my feelings.

Kind of the same. I don’t know how “friends” turn their back at you when you become psychotic. I would never do that.

I had some horrible friends and I regret spending any time with them.

I had lots of girls tie me up in invisible restraints and suppress me and hatefully dominate me and my body.
I was so timid and they wanted me to be “sorry I exist “.

I suffered so much being around these horrible girls that treated me with hate and like I was worthless.
They suppressed my very being my person into “nothing”.

Had girls like that in Sweden and australia.
These girls who suppressed me and hatefully dominated me were the absolute worst.
I couldn’t stand being with them.
Felt horrible to be around them.
They were definitely not my real friends.
They were malicious and wished me bad and tried to ruin my life.
They were /are enemies.

Had another group of girls I actually did love but they were not real deal or loyal etc as they hung out with boys who bullied me.
I should never have given them my time either nomatter how much I loved them I doubt if it was mutual and they mustn’t havd cared for me much or respected me.
