[EDIT: This is longer than I expected. Sorry. :whoops: ]

Now, I'm gonna be honest. This is not what I wanted my first actual post to be like, but I feel like I needed to post this. Not only can I vent but I can also seek advice.

So, where do I begin? Oh, right.

Once upon a time, I had a great group of friends who stuck to my side and we were unstoppable. We'd do everything together, we'd share secrets and fun memories and it was just the most amazing friendship ever.

One day, I realized I developed feelings for a guy in our class.

Of course, I told my friends. They all 'shipped' us and thought we would be cute together blah blah blah. Everything was great. It turned out that he felt the same about me and wanted to ask me out. His best friend used come back and tell me everything he said about me and his friends also tried to get us together.

Sometimes he'd hug me alot and he used talk to me everytime we didn't have a class. He'd hold my hand a lot too.

It was just a really great time in my life.

But all good things must come to an end. One day, my group of "friends" started avoiding me. I had no idea why. They avoided me for like 3 weeks straight, and in these 3 weeks, they spent EVERY single day with my crush.

They laughed with him, hugged him, held his hands, played with his hair and they were just all over him. They knew what they were doing because they stopped talking to me and avoided eye contact with me.

I confronted them about it and they made me look like the bad guy. They said that they were "friends with him first" and a load of other bull. So then I had to apologize to them.

I did apologize, because I hate having enemies. So now we're friends again and he likes them now, not me.

One of them in particular, he likes her. But she's leading him on. And I see him crying over her all the time. It hurts me so bad because I would never hurt him like that.

She just changed. She was never like this. Now she's all over every guy in class. It's disgusting. She's changing all of our friends like her.

I'm getting tired of them. I'm tired of being around them. They ruined my happiness and they're all becoming a bunch of....youknowhats...

How do I drop them as friends without causing confusion and drama? :(

I feel like I just need to rid them from my life. They're too much stress to deal with.

My advice is just get rid as soon as they sound like poison the way you described them being around people like that will just increase the chance of you being pushed too far as for the guy you like just tell him the truth if he's a nice person he'll eventually see through them

Well my advice is tell your friends they being petty and shady and life goes on. As for him trust me girl there will be other fish in the sea! Just be patient, thats the key! but whatever you decide to do, do it for your happiness not to make others happy!

Your friends sound like horrible "friends"...If they just thought it was okay to just stop hanging out with you, then I would just stop hanging out with them. I wouldn't want to even be associated with jerks like that. I get that you don't want to cause drama and they might ask you why you stopped being around them...but I would just leave 'em alone. Let them have the guy if they want him so bad. I had a group of so called friends who all of a sudden turned into the "popular kids" and did the things you described in your post. I just broke off all communication with them. If they ask you why you don't hang out with them, just tell them you were hurt. If it turns into an argument, just walk away. They don't deserve your time.

Well, that's the best advice I can come up with. Hope it helps, somehow.
