That's What Friends Are For?
Thicker than blood, wherever there was me there was you
My all was your all, but that wasn't enough for you
You had to see and tried to walk a mile in my shoes
In my head, in my bed
Betrayed by my best friend
-Kelly Price "Friend of Mine"
We've been best friends for over ten years. We go everywhere together. We discuss our most intimate secrets. We call each other five times a day. She has outlast all of my boyfriends. She helped me get through the hard times and she has shared in my good times. I know she would help me with anything, at anytime, anywhere...she is my very best friend. Or at least I thought she was until she stole my bank card...
You all know how I feel about my friends. Good ones are a hard commodity to come by. Friendships have to be a perfect fit, like a thong...you want one that supports you, but that's not all up your ass. Once someone does something to ruin a perfectly good friendship it is hard to salvage. You expect ordinary joes to screw you over, but a friend? That's just not right. That's just plain old mean.
Now, I'm not saying that I have always been the best friend. Not by a long shot. I have done some low down dirty stuff myself, but at least I can admit I was wrong and learn from my mistakes. And boy...some of the things I have done are harsh! And I'm gonna tell you all about them...anonymously. I'm no fool!
So, since we love to confess our dirty secrets on this blog, lets talk about friends. What is the most scandalous thing you have ever done to a friend? Do they know? Or maybe a friend screwed you over, what did they do to you? Are you still friends?
Just as before...

I have had several friends that have been really into men that were obviously using them for sex. They would constantly ask my opinion or advise and then wouldn't listen when I told them the truth. So when I got tired of hearing the BS, I would just go to the guy and tell him to literally "stop f*cking with her". I would play the "she's catching feelings" angle and tell him to make a decision if it wasn't getting serious on his part. I could see where it was going even if she couldn't and all the whining and crying was grating on my last nerve. It usually worked.
I will forewarn you, my story has no sexual involvement at all (I know how ya’ll get down on this blog :). This may be a bit boring to most who read this blog, but it’s still aligned with today’s posting……
I had a friend in high school that I became best friends with. We did everything together and she was a good friend to me. She had a little job at a fast food restaurant and when she got paid, she would buy us both lunch and clothes. We had mutual friends that spoke of how she stated her father had a good job and a nice house. Well, I had been to her house and it was filthy. I couldn't believe she lived like that. I had to tell them the truth and little did I know, they told her what I said. Shortly thereafter, she just stopped speaking to me. She didn’t sit with me at lunch, walk with me to our next class or take my calls. I asked our mutual friends, "what's up with her?" and of course they claimed not to know. She finally answered one of my calls and told me they told her what I said. Young and stupid, I denied ever saying it. Looking back I should have admitted it and apologized for telling other people how nasty her house was. The person I became would have just told her house was nasty and helped her clean up. I know I hurt her and she really used to look out for me. Our friendship was lost that day and 16 years later, I still feel guilty about it.
I had sex (twice) with a friend's ex boyfriend, a week after they broke up. It was so worth it. Eventually me and the girl became friends again.
There was this guy I used to have relations with. We were not interested in having a relationship, so I decided to hook him up with one of my friends. They went out a few times and they stay in touch, but never really went past dating. The scandalous part is that we knew we were not going to stop having sex. She would be so pissed if she knew I was with him the whole time. She always was so impressed that he never hit on her or mentioned sex. He was getting satisfied the whole time!
A friend of mine cheated on her husband. He called me for advice. He needed to know some answers she just was not telling him. I told him she didn't love the guy, it was just about attention and sex. He asked me soooo many questions. I urged him to keep asking questions if he was not satisfied with her answers, knowing that she was not telling the full truth. I never even told her he called and I know he asked her a million more questions. Sorry!!!
Okay, this just happened. The friend just got me. A dear close friend of many many years borrowed some money from me. We lend money back and forth all the time. Niether one of us, have it like that. I have lent her my rent money, car note and she has always gotten it back. She calls me to tell me that the check she wrote is going to bounce at the beginning of the week. A customer of hers wrote her a bad check. In her business it happends alot. She said she did not have the money on hand, but she would get it back to me asap. Okay, I am not happy, but that is my girl. Fast forward to later in the week, we are making small talk about what she is doing for her birthday, she is treating herself to a massage. Did she forget she owes me money and I don't have it like that. My loan company has been officially closed.
A former friend, slept with a former boyfriend, to get some work done in her house for free. She opened the door naked, she got all her plumbing done that day. I have not forgiven him or her. It went down real ugly.
In a college a friend of mine confided in me that she liked one of our male classmates. My friend was a nice girl but I KNEW that she was not his type. I told her this but she responded that someone told her that he liked her. A few weeks later he suspected that she liked him and asked me about it. I half answered but he figured out that I was not being truthful. He told other classmates about it and it became a joke in our circle. It got back to her and she was extremely hurt and embarassed that everyone knew. I still deny that I ever said anything. She and I are acquaintances now. I feel really bad about hurting her. Maybe I will apologize at our 25th class reunion.
