TLDR: You CAN not like a person, but don't isolate someone from others because you want to be a dick.
I've gotten an active warning not to be friends with Bec, to expect bad outcomes if I do. To this I say: Fuck off.
@BecMcGee has been a sweetheart to me, that's what matters.

You may not like a person for your petty reasons, that's fine. I've got my petty reasons for not liking people, a lot of the public do. Do not isolate someone from others just because you want to be bitter. Do not actively go out and tell people to stay away from someone.
If you've got shared beef with friends about someone, vent to each other. Sharing tea is apart of friendship. Keep your petty isolation plan to yourself. If I should be aware of a bad behavior, give me an actual reason, don't wrap someone in a vague plague and call it a day.
If it's an honest warning, that's something. Show me someone did you wrong if they did, give me evidence. I'm not here for your social manipulation. I've had lovely interactions so far with Bec and I hope that I continue to. I would very much enjoy to see a friend future here.
Support new friends. Support old friends. If someone's done you right, stand by them. Guide them if they're wrong, but let them vent. Give back to people who give to you. Find your two-way streets, find your friendship highways. Reach out to people you like and are curious about.
Let people choose their sides of a story once they're given all of the information. Don't try to push another to one side just because YOU had a bad time with someone. Anyone can be a mutual friend of two people who don't like each other, that's totally fine! Live with it.
Anyway, I wanted to show support for a new friend and I wanted to say that you can openly not like someone and that is entirely natural, but don't actively try to manipulate others against your personal grudge. You can keep that bit to yourself.
If you want to vent on someone, okay! Explain why, say what's happening, but let the person who's listening make their own choice. Whatever they take from your information is then their choice to either act or not act on.
Whoever you're talking to should be enough of an adult to go from there. If they want to hate too, that's their choice, you shouldn't actively tell them to avoid someone unless it's *real bad*. If they want to both support you, but still talk, socialize, etc to them, that's okay!
I have love for you Bec and I'm excited to see where this friendship could go and I want to talk more odd things with you and see who you are. Someone's bad perception isn't taking my experience with you from us.
Wanted to make a thicc-ass friendship post that solidified it.
