I recently ended my friendship with my friend because she’s jealous of me. We are both in a relationship. She has a big butt and a nicer shape while I have a pretty face. I love her and took her like my sister. Anything I’m getting for myself, I’m also getting for her. I sometimes order clothes from big brands on IG for her without getting for myself. My boyfriend loves me and he also surprises me with gifts a lot. He got me 3 hairs last December and I gave my friend one of them because I didn’t want her to feel sad, as she and her man were having issues then. Whenever my boyfriend got me gifts like gold jewelry, she’s not always happy. Whenever my man is ordering me food or anything and she’s at my place, I will tell my boyfriend to make it double so I can share with her. When she came to visit me at my man’s place, my man gave her N100k when she was leaving. I always travel to places with her and the bills are always on me, down to her flight fee and house rent. I loved her, but she was always jealous of me. There was a day I told her to follow me to go buy clothes and in her words, “May I follow you go make you dey buy cloths make I dey look you abi?” But I always got for her.
I wouldn’t leave a shop without shopping for my best friend. I ignored all the signs and still loved her like my sister. I got a logistics bike—she didn’t congratulate me. I even sent her some flyers to help me post on her status—she ignored the messages. I misplaced my gold jewelry and got another one because I was going to use it for an event. She borrowed it, saying she would return it before then, but on the day of the event I called her and she said she traveled. I was surprised because she didn’t tell me she was traveling. I just knew she was lying, and I went to her house. When I got there, I met her lying down on her bed. I just collected it and left, which made me miss the event, and she didn’t even bother to send any message. I also ignored it and thought to give her space. Then my coursemate showed me messages between her and my friend, and my friend was spoiling and gossiping with my name to her, saying that I got my expensive lifestyle from prostitution, that I don’t have any boyfriend, that I’m always sleeping with people’s men. I didn’t respond. I also listened to some hurtful voice notes. I didn’t bother to ask her—I just blocked her and deleted her contacts. Was I wrong? Should I have confronted her? Should I unblock her and ask her so I can hear what she has to say about it?
