Me: What?
Me: I'm vulnerable and hurt and- sigh nevermind.... I give up...!
Amber: And I'm not?
Me: I don't think you understand my pain or maybe you don't care about me like you once did... but I still care about you and that's what hurts the most. I was the last to know how much you had changed..... I may still care about you but now I know that you don't but I will still talk to you because I'm a real friend, I've made changes for you Amber.... think about that.
Amber: And I missed my senior prom for you... I will never get the chance to go to prom again. Not even with Jordan.
Me: When was this? Wow is that how you want to go? Throw that in my face? Well sincerely I'm sorry that I wanted to talk to you whatever night this was ok I wouldn't have bothered you. But let me tell you something, I've never had any of the normal experiences school ok?! I don't know what it's like to have a senior prom or participate in something as nice as home coming queen or whatever you call it. Not to mention that someone who didn't deserve the crown got it!
Amber: In case you have forgotten, I wasn't exactly popular either! Listen. I am going to enjoy my day off of work and probably clean the house a little. Don't flip out if I don't answer.
Me: Don't worry I won't!
Amber: I was just saying I would be slow to respond.
Me: Ok. You've said a lot of things that hurt me today.... I hope you didn't mean them. (Here I was giving her a chance to mend fences and say "No of course I didn't mean any of those things I said, I know that that hurt you and I'm sorry." Sadly at least from my end, that didn't happen. Instead, this happened.)
Amber: Some of them I did.
Me: Like what? I'm almost afraid to ask because depending on the answer I don't know what I will do...! (And honestly I was afraid.)
Amber: You not knowing exactly who I am and the fact that you are slightly annoying.
(I stared at my phone for a good five minutes and still couldn't believe what I was reading! I was officially ticked off!)
Me: And you just said the wrong thing....!
Amber: Oh?
(Everyone please read this and let me know what you think. I have been so patient with her it's not even funny. It's been more than nine months ago that she slowly started to give me the brush off and she calls ME annoying!? The nurve!)
