I need to know what you guys would do if a friend did this to you because I don't want to lose her as a friend but I am extremely hurt by what she did and have been told by everyone else that she isn't really my friend for doing that to me.
My friend, or so I thought (we'll call her B), and I were supposed to hang out on Saturday. Her boyfriend was going to be there too but we were all cool. In fact, he suggested it. It comes to be Saturday and when she hasn't called me by 11:30 (we were going to get together at 11), I call her cell phone to discover she is in J-Town with her aunt (which is where her boyfriend lives so I know they'll pick him up before they come back) and that her phone is dying so she'll call me back when they get home. When she hadn't called five hours later I called her house and she answered and told me that she was grounded and couldn't do anything. Now I'm not stupid so I know that her boyfriend is already there and she is trying to lie to me but I pretend to believe her and call our friend and her boyfriend's cousin, H, and ask him if P is with B and he says "yes, and don't say I told you this but I refuse to lie to you. she called me about two minutes ago and told me not to answer the phone if you called and to lie to you and say P is at work and B is grounded if I did answer." Now H is a really good friend of mine, more my friend than hers. And the only reason she met P is because I took her with me to H's house and his cousin P is staying with him.
So basically, my friend not only ditched me, but she also lied to me and asked a good friend of mine to lie to me. Also, she owes me $10 because I bought her and P lunch last week. Now she hasn't answered my phone calls at all since Saturday. So that's been two full days of being ignored by her. H thinks it is because she knows what she did was wrong and doesn't want to own up to it. But this girl is one of my best friends and we spend a lot of time together and it's our senior year in high school coming up. I don't have many friends and we were gonna rock the year away together, just the two of us (P already graduated, as did my bf). Our lockers are right next to each other and our parents are friends so it's not like I can avoid her but I don't know what to do. I thought she was a good friend until now. Help!~Cass

oh highschool days. I made a pact with my best friend that no matter what...we would always always be friends. We had our ups and downs as you are having with your friend right now. Through all the ups and downs we are still best friends and it has been over 30 years! Highschool drama will be humorous to you in a few years. Don't lose your very good friend over something that really doesn't matter much. Maybe you just need a little break from each other.

I don't want to lose her but it kind of does matter. I would never ask another friend to lie to someone just so I could ditch them without a fight.

It's hard to forgive her when she won't answer my phone calls. Erg!

it's a small word like 'umph!' that is a sound of frustration.

this is too petty an issue to worry about ... just give her space and forget about her for a while ... if she cares ... she will see that you are not trying to connect to much and would talk to you about it which means that she cares and you should just re connect ... if she doesnt ... then i dont know why you should try to be freinds with her.

Yeah. I'll just let her come to me. But it's so hard because I don't have that many friends to begin with. She was one of the best.

So we talked today and we are now friends again and we're hanging out again tomorrow. :) I went out to the bar where she works and we hung out when she got off. I'm happy.
