I remember writing about my friend who called me broke at my school’s back gate, which was crowded. Well, I finally confronted her—not physically though because my school is currently closed—but I told her through text. We’ve been friends for over a year now, and I feel like she doesn’t like me. This will be long, but let me give some examples of what she has done. This girl once told me my wig of N115k looks like a N30k wig and it looks like a sponge. Anytime I wear that hair, I always get compliments from both genders. She’s the only person that has said anything bad about that hair. She also said that on the road. She told me a wig my boyfriend bought for me for about N60k looks like a N20k wig. I didn’t take that seriously because I didn’t like the hair, but why would she say that?
Anytime I wear something or do my hair, she always tries to downplay it, especially in public. One time, my phone broke, and I told her. The first thing she said was, “Thank God.” When I first bought the phone, she thought I borrowed it. Anytime we take pictures together, she intentionally posts the ones I look bad in and won’t delete them. Even on my birthday, she posted weird videos of me—most of which I didn’t even know when she took them. She has never posted a nice picture of me, and because of this, I stopped taking pictures with her. One time, she took a very bad unaware picture of me when she came to my house. That night, she told me to send her N3k; otherwise, she would post it. I told her she should, and I would even help her repost it.
Even during the exam period, after one math exam, she told me the expo she paid for didn’t come out, and I felt bad for her. I was telling my boyfriend about it when he asked me if I didn’t know about the expo before the exam. I told him no. He was like, what kind of friends do I keep? Because the girl and I are very close, she could have at least told me about it, and then we could share the payment together, or I would even pay the full payment. But it’s after the exam she was telling me. Thank God she didn’t even tell me; I would have wasted money. She did it another time too. It was after the exam she told me she had the expo. These are some of the things I can remember that she does. She also makes side remarks trying to say she’s prettier than me every time.
What made me finally confront her was because she called me fat. I used to be a size 4, but I rapidly started gaining weight. I’m almost a size 6 now, while she’s around size 10, and she always tells me she’s insecure about her stomach and weight, which I never used against her. I posted a picture of myself on my WhatsApp, and she entered my DM and was like, “Are you back in school?” I said no, but soon. The next thing she said was, “I’m asking because you are fat here.” How do they even relate? She just wanted to remind me I’m gaining weight. I’m not even that fat; I just have a big stomach because most times I’m bloated, and I don’t know what’s causing that. Her comment really changed my mood.
I wanted to delete the picture, but people started commenting that I look good as I gained weight, which made me feel better. I finally confronted her because I’ve had enough. She said it was all a joke and that she didn’t mean anything by it. I’m not really happy with the way I confronted her, but I was fed up. I just hope our friendship ends.
