Today, I was texting Mandy because I was bored and nobody else was replying to my texts. We started off just by chatting away and then Dave came into the picture. Here is how our conversation went (sorry for any sappyness you might find!(M=Mandy, B=Brook))
M: ugh! I almost cried when i found out that he was in my class again. idk how i'll handle him for another year! but i hav gail with me which is a gain!
B: When dave told me he was in ur class i felt really bad
M: for him or me?
B: BothM: he shouldn't get any sympathy
B: i don't have a prob with him. it's ur fight
M: u were the one who kept callin him a jerk! oh i c! u do like him again!
B: I did call him a jerk, yes, but then i realized he was just hurtin too. And no i do not like him in that way again
B: Who am i kidding? I do like him!
M: brook, he called dme a bi*** among tons of other crap... i cant handle him anymore!
M: knew it.
B: Look I'm sorry okay!!! But i had nothing to do with him callin u a bi*** or whatever and im sorry i like him, okay, even tho i kno he will never like me back cuz he still likes u!
M: he's definetly not as nice as he seems. i never thought he cud be this nasty
B: so did i but even tho i thought i hated him for that, i didnt
M: i can read u like a book. when u said u didnt like him anymore, i knew it wasn't true but no matter what i still love you
..........
And then we continued talking about other things. Anyway, I was curious so... (D=Dave)
B: Hey dave. Can i ask u a question involving mandy?
D: Sure go ahead
B: Have u ever called mandy a bi***
D: Yeah i did, when i was really mad at her, and if your gonna think about it you'll understand why i did
B: ok. can i ask one more but u dont have to answer if u dont want to?
D: Ok sure
B: do u still like her?
D: Not even close
B: K just wonderin
..........
And our conversation ended there. I was wondering if I was a bad friend for not siding with Mandy and liking Dave. Like, I don't think that's really fair but would a good friend hate him??? I really don't know! Help?

Well, be a good friend by listening to Mandy. You don't have to hate Dave because Mandy wants you to because that's not fair to Dave. Just listen to Mandy's problems but you don't have to hate anyone because of that if you don't want to.
ReplyDeleteDon't be controlled by Mandy. It's her fight not yours. You don't have to follow her around like a puppy dog and hate whatever she hates, and like whatever she likes.
