Kinda cornered..

[cheldy]

Today, at lunchtime, I was sitting at a table with my best friend and 3 other kids I didn't know too well. One of them glanced at my wrist, where I had my wristband... she asked me what had happened to my arm, and pulled my wristband up. The others pretended to be busy eating.
I told her I tried putting a leash on my cat, when my best friend suddenly exclaimed "But you don't have a cat!" (She knows about the SH, but I told her I'm not doing it anymore).
After lunch, this girl pulled my wristband up again and looked at them, and although I tried telling her that it was the cat, she clearly didn't believe me... :(
Thing is, she might go and tell the coach, and he might kick me off the team...
Should I bring this subject up with that girl again, ask her not to tell the coach, or should I pretend to forget it?
Sorry for the long post, but I am panicking, lately I had let my guard down and forgotten to hide my scars.

Hey, Christina.

I'm sorry this happened to you. That's not fair of the girl to have done that. It's invading your personal space and privacy and I know how horrifying that experience can be. :hug: Your best friend certainly didn't help but I wouldn't get too mad at her. Maybe just mention it to her, if you want to, that you just really needed that little white lie to slide.

As for your coach and this girl, I would talk to her if you feel up to it. Tell her that it doesn't matter what she saw, it was not any of her business and she was very intrusive and you did not appreciate it. Tell her you would feel much better if she just forgot about it or at least just didn't bring it up again to anyone else. Don't be in her face, just polite. If she tries to ask more, you don't have to tell her anything, just let her know that you're not comfortable with sharing but you're getting help (be it professional or just here).

Hope this helped. :)

In total honesty she shouldn't have done that, at least not in front of everyone. But whats done is done, your best option is to approach her and talk to her about it. Is she a trustworthy girl? Like has she got a reputation of spreading personal things around? You've got to consider the after effects of telling someone, as much as its the right thing to do it can have a fair amount of repercussions. If you need to talk feel free to pm me i'd be happy to help.
