i wanted to stay quiet about this to avoid starting drama, but now that this person has dragged my family into it, I feel like it’s time I address this situation. I used to be close with @/awstenphobic, but after what she has done recently, I feel like its time I finally speak up
this all started out of nowhere, just weeks ago, I considered her one of my best friends. however, she began to spread lies about me and told people that I was saying that someone “didn’t deserve their notice because they’re a bad person,” this caused people to get mad at me
after talking to the person the lies were directed towards I figured out my words got twisted by someone, I asked syd, and she told me she would never do that and blamed it on someone else. I proceeded to contact this person, who told me that syd was the one who did it.
syd finally admitted to it, but her reasoning was because she was embarrassed to be associated with me and wanted to make it seem as if she was only friend with me to see how bad I am. as you could imagine, this really hurt me. I tried to give syd a chance to explain herself.
I really wanted to forgive her, but I was extremely hurt. all her apologies felt as if she was trying to guilt me into forgiving her, and I didn’t feel as if they were really sincere. all I asked for was time, however, syd began to get mad at me and for not accepting her apology.
the next situation is when i subscribed to jawns twitch. syd found out that I subscribed and began to get mad over it, accusing me of only doing it to mess with her, and that I was “taking away her safe space” and I can’t subscribe because “I don’t like jawn” when I actually do
this basically felt like she was trying to gatekeep me from jawns stream, when in reality I just want to support him (and play minecraft with my friends.) but this lead to some very hurtful things being said about me, and some subtweets made, making me sound like a monster
after I found out about this, I reached out to her, and explained how I never want to take away her safe space, and that I just want to support jawn, and how I felt as if she was gate keeping. she ignored this. But then hours later I was given another apology full of guilt trips
and after I tried to explain how sorry I really was and that I didn’t appreciate the things she said about me, I got a half fast “okay” response. and lastly, this is what set me off, I was going to stay quiet until I found this out. Recently, my family was effected by covid 19
everyone is healthy now, it was very minor for everyone, but i was really stressed over it when it was going on. syd however, kept talking shit about me, like how she’s been doing, but decided to start making fun of my family for being effected by the virus.
this is twitter. the internet. its just social media. I was really trying not to let the stuff she has done get to me, but involving my family is where i draw the line. I love my family, and im really thankful that everyone is now healthy, but making fun of them, is just not okay
thank you to everyone reaching out and asking if I’m okay and thank you to everyone who’s shared their similar experiences with me, I honestly thought I was alone with this. It really means a lot
