Has your "best friend" ever royally screwed you over and how did you cope with it?

Dude, that's sooooo not cool.

But really there are two sides to every story. Sure, she might be the one at fault. Ever consider that her ex might be up to shenanigans? He tells her "not a problem", puts her name on the list and deliberately leaves yours off? Might sound far fetched, but if you two squabble at this thing, who's shoulder might she wind up crying on? Or maybe he might want alone time with her, some sort of romance rekindling at the sneak preview, and figures you might be a third wheel. Or he might be vengefully out to destroy her support network, one by one. Okay, I'm really stretching here, but I hate to see a friendship go down the tubes.

But my advice is probably bogus...I've been screwed over more times than not. While my exs are generally a really cool bunch, one guy "friend", best friend, claimed to have a sisterly thing for me, then proceeded to trash me to everyone who seemed remotely interested in me. I could have really screwed him over quite a few times, but I never did. I really hate to be petty like that, and then I'd turn around and hear some new defamation of my character and every time I tried to talk it out, he acted so angry....it got kinda scary.

Finally, I smartened up and realized that this guy wasn't my friend, and whatever feelings I had for him were about something I wanted him to be...not the person he actually was. He's not an evil guy, but he's not who I thought he was either. And in the light of my recent experience (meaning my ex), not worth the time.

I really hope the troubles you have with your best friend are the result of an honest misunderstanding. I know you're bummed about missing out on the big sneak preview. I think you're reacting like anyone else would really--super bummed and p.o.'d!!!

If it were me, I'd go and try to be cool. Maybe Mr. Ex will pull a hero act after all and get you in. I'd rather go and look stupid than stay home and fume. You never know. You might wind up having fun after all....and make some new friends while you're at it.

I'm totally praying you get your pass!!! ;) All the best!!!!

she kissed my boyfriend and lied about it.... at first i was mad at both of them but still remained in a relation ship with him. because every witness said it was her that really asked for it and tried to kiss him. but then i realized that your friends are the most important thing before boyfriends no matter what... so eventually after 2 mos of hating her i dumped my bf and became best friends with her and talked to her about everything that made me mad about her ....

ooh, tough... idk. maybe you could help me better than i could help you (hint: read my last question!!!)
