Cut a friend out of my life, now she's running around playing the victim.

Not going to get into why i cut her off, but IMO it was completely valid and more importantly the straw that broke the camel's back. I did not cut her off over one, two or even three horrible mistakes, no i put up with her bullshit for several years and now i find out she's been lying to me for two years and betrayed me in one of the most disgusting ways possible. Even worse was after the betrayal she went and *BRAGGED ABOUT IT* to she doesn't even remember all who!! She, two years later, is STILL BRAGGING it too!

Now that i know and since i cut her off she's apparently been telling even more people. Who somehow think I'm overreacting, how i don't know bc that shit is unacceptable for most people but i honestly don't know "her" story. I've also been told people have heard "Three different stories" which is weird bc she's the only one out there telling HER SIDE of the story, I haven't told anyone my side, can't speak for anyone else but that math is not mathing. Then again she's been running her mouth for years so they could all be her story, that she's just changed. Since she seems to be changing details to make *me* look like the asshole.

I just want her out of my life. Tbh I'm stupidly forgiving so if she would have just given me space, we might have been able to eventually work through it. Not anymore. That shit has sailed and is currently at the bottom of the mariana trench. I won't even look her in the face when i run into her because i'm so utterly disgusted by her and the situation.

She however, refuses to leave me alone. She will come into my works and try to scream talk at me, ya know so it draws everyone attention and they see me ignoring her completely. Guess it makes people feel bad for her and she gets yet another chance to play victim over something she caused. Not just once, or twice, no it's every single time. My one boss knows i cut her from my life and even commented to me about it the one day, basically asking if i wanted her to step in bc it was THAT obvious what she was doing. If she could just be in the same room without fucking harassing me, it would be one thing but nope- the second she sees me she acts like a 6yo who wants to antagonise their big sister, mind you she's old enough to be my mother and I'm nearly a 30yo woman.

TBH i think she thought id get over this because SHE doesn't think it's a big deal (even tho logically if she really thought that why lie&hide it for years?), so far it's split and though a lot of people agree what she did "wasn't that bad" i can assure you, it is. The rest think she's a POS and agree that what she did was fucked. Of course because i'm not talking to people about it though, they're all getting her BS side(s) of the story. I don't even care though, all it does is mean i can cut out those people too. I'm just so done with her and the whole situation. I'm sick of hearing people talk about me behind my back *all because of her*. I KNOW she was the one to tell everyone too bc she fcking admitted it!!I also did *nothing* besides cut her out after i found out- i didn't go attack her verbally or otherwise, i didn't talk shit, i just told *myself* she wasn't my friend and blocked her. I didn't make a scene in our group chat or even tell our friend group, i avoided her so no one else would be sucked into something that isn't their business anyways. I kept quiet and to myself. She immediately went on a smear campaign to gain sympathy.

You can't lie about something for years, brag about it, find out you hurt someone on like "ruin their life" level, STILL BRAG ABOUT IT and expect the person you hurt to believe you actually feel bad in any way shape or form. You're sad you GOT CAUGHT in a lie and sad *your friends* are seeing you for who you are. If she really felt bad, why is running her mouth? why is she trying to make ME look like the asshole? I just can't find her logic to how she really thought she would repair our friendship doing this shit. And if i'm honest with myself, I think she's doing it just to hurt me even more. She knows i won't run around like a playground child and tell everyone what she did, she's telling them herself but i'm sure its a edited/redacted version and not the full truth because even the half truth makes her look like shit.

It's clear she doesn't respect me in any way. She didn't respect our friendship. She's not going to respect my wishes that she leaves me alone and i'm just done. I'm over it and over constantly having to hear about it from others- including my fcking cusomters. I'm over her coming into my jobs and harassing me, my works (yes, more than one place) are places she's always went to but it's clear she's going out of her way to bother me, specifically, when i'm at work. I'm just so done. She's trying to turn all these people against me and i don't give a fck anymore. I know who's on my side and it sucks that our friend group is probably about to break in half but idgaf. Other's are done with her shit too. It's just always something with her, I was there for her for years and bent over backwards to help her& her marriage just for her to shit all over our friendship. Never again though, she no longer exists to me, I'm over it, over her.
