The Peacekeeper Snaps
A former friend of mine and my group decided she didn’t want to be friends anymore. We were all like “Okay”, we didn’t really get along, no big deal. We let her live her life and we lived ours. But she decided she was going to start spreading rumours about my 2 best friends ( both are 1 or 2 years older than me) and people I consider family. She said they pulled knives on people and told lies about us. Then one day she decides to try and be confident and to come up to me and my group and tell us to grow up because of some dumb reason. Even though she was the one who was spreading rumours and telling lies to everyone to try and get people to hate us. Then she personally attacked my friends with something they trusted her with previously. I lost my sh*t. Now me a (then) 15-year-old female who was about 5’4, never swears, never yells, always tries to keep the peace, good student. Got in this ex-friend’s face and went at it. Backing her up into a corner and yelling, swearing and invading her personal space. All the colour drained from her face and every time she went to speak I yelled louder, her eyes were the size of bowling balls, and her friends were standing near her, but none of them helped her. The best thing was that 5 teachers, all who knew me and knew I wouldn’t do this without a reason, were standing in the room next to us just watching it cause they knew I was angry, and wasn’t going to let anything stop me. After all of that yelling, she never came within 6 feet of me and never looked me in the eyes again. Life is great and I don’t regret anything.
