A lot has changed since I last wrote on here. I’m no longer happy, I’m right back where I was, even worse maybe. My ex-best friend threatened me, saying he’d tell everyone that my mom’s a drunk and abuses me, when she isn’t a drunk, and she has never abused me in my life. I haven’t gone to school in two days, in fear of seeing him. I’d rather run away from my problems, than face them and that is something I’m not proud of. The worst part of this all, is I did this to myself. I didn’t need to be his best friend, or tell him all my secrets, but I did. Everyone warned me about him, and I didn’t listen. Now, he’s not only going to hurt me, he’s also going to hurt my family and that’s what I fear most. I’m scared, for the first time in my life, to go to school. To see the people I grew up with, to see the people I just became friends with. I don’t want people believing anything he says, and I sincerely hope he doesn’t spread those rumours. I do have a lot on him though. For example, his girl friend’s pregnancy scare(s). But, that would be the wrong thing to ,do. I know that when I pass him in the hallways on Monday, he will say something, because that’s just the way he is. He doesn’t let stuff go. He said he doesn’t care, and that if I didn’t leave him alone, he would spread the rumours, so that’s exactly what I’m going to do. I’m going to pretend he doesn’t exist, and hope for the best.
Pray for me, please. I sincerely need it.

You have to be circumspect when revealing things about yourself. Don’t live your life without letting anyone in, just be careful about who you tell these things to. Why is he threatening you anyway?
He’s like that. He’s manipulative, and can’t be trusted. I should have realized this sooner, but it’s too late. He never cared about me, and now I know that. I told him a while ago that my mom had a drinking problem, but I was just going through some stuff. MY dad just doesn’t like it when my mom drinks sometimes, because she acts like a completely different person. I brought this on myself, and now I don’t know what to do.
It seems he holds some animosity toward you. Maybe you could get to the bottom of things by talking with him and working things out so that you’re both happy with the outcome.
Another theory, is that he only befriended you to lure you in, so he could hurt you. If that’s the case, there’s not much you can do. The more you try and diffuse the situation, the more he will take delight in torturing you.
I know this is by far the toughest solution, but you may want to consider going to your family first and telling them what transpired. They will be hurt, but would probably rather hear it from you first, than through leaked rumors.
Your best bet is probably just to avoid him. Don’t talk to him and if he talks to you don’t get into an argument. If he trys to blackmail you tell your principal or school resource officer. And most importantly BE CAREFUL. Don’t tell just anyone such personal things. Try not to let it wear heavily on your mind. :/
Your mums a drunk and abuses you isn’t the worst rumour anyone could spread. If someone said that about me I would say yeah she is the worst, I like it so what. I know school can be difficult sometimes. One day, you will regret not standing up for yourself because when you meet these people again 10 years down the road you will see just how weak they are.
but she’s saying this could ruin her. maybe she loves her mother, i love your advice for her to stay strong and prove the rumors are wrong..but obviously shes having difficulties. doesnt sound like shes exactly in the mood for joking. just saying
Me? Some people react really oddly on here and I can’t for one moment conclude that it’s me.
