The Text Message....

[Ruby_Red_Robin]

Prelude:

I got a new phone w/ texting and I don't have many of my old numbers.

Problem:

I got this text message saying "Your Fat" and I called the person it was from and it was my friend from tap, Emily M.

I'm really angry.

What should I do?

That is realy rude of her

Tell her how you felt about that, and say something like "Well, I just got a new texting phone, and I don't think a first test message be "your fat" from my friend. Why did you do that?"

Ask her if she really feels that way, or if it was for laughs, it it WAS ment for laughs, and you come right on accusing her, that could be hard! but if It was for laughts but it hurt your feelings tell her in a nice way.

If she's a true friend, she'll understand. ^_^

(Like a quote I read:

"Friends will help you when you fall - BEST friends will knock you over and laugh")

 

[Tamagirl_Desy]

Well, she doesn't sound much like a friend then, does she now?

 

Tell her how you felt about what she said, and say, ''How come you sent me a text message saying 'your fat'? It was really hurtful and rude. I don't understand why you'd do that.''

 

If she's actually your friend, she'll apoligize and understand. If she isn't, perhaps you'd better stay away from her. You deserve friends that will make you feel good about yourself, not ones that will lower your self-esteem.

 

If she was kidding, make sure she KNOWS you didn't think it was funny.

 

(Kawaii_Kitty, I have a quote of my own that me and my friend used to say,

''True friends are like pets-they don't judge you, and listen to your troubles without inturrupting.''

Hm, it's hard to tell what people mean via text messages. In real life, you communicate in more ways than just words--deflection, facial expressions, and body language all work in communication. Who knows, perhaps she was joking. Granted, that's not a nice thing to say under and circumstance, but if she's a friend she probably didn't do it out of spite. When you called her, what happened? Did she apologize profusely or anything?

I think that you should just be civil with her, not actually proper friends. She doesn't seem like a nice person to text her friend saying something so horrible, unless it was a joke. But even if it was a joke it's still wrong, and you can misinterpritate it.

I agree...except for the civil part. I'd just cut her off completely, sounds like a person who is a waste of time and energy.

You know jokes like that are always malice in nature, and in all honesty a joke is only when both people find it funny. It's one of those grey matter things where to some it might be funny, but sounds like the "hey it's a joke" thing was a lame excuse.

It was sent at 1:31 am. I talked to her last night and she got all angry. She said I should have called her 1st and she said she didn't do it. I did call her.....100x!!!!!!!!!!!!!! she just didn't answer. She thinks I don't want to hang w/ her cuz in tap I always pair up w/ my brother. I do that cuz he's the only boy and is lonley.

So now she said she won't talk to me or wants to be friend......

 

[baybee-x]

Well you should forget about her, your a much better person than her and she doesn't deserve friends like you :furawatchi: .

 

[tamagotchi_pal]

Stop bein her friend.

 

[Tama*Lover]

True friends wouldn't tease or insult you in any way. Talk to her and tell her how you feel. I would personally stop being her friend, because I wouldn't be friends with a person that calls me fat or anorexic. Both are very offensive.

If you keep on getting text messages like that, tell your parents. Your parents will probably inform Emily M.'s parents.

 

[Star Tama]

To be honest she can't deny it if you called the number and it was hers. It was stupid of her to do that and also not very nice either.

If she's had a go at you then you should just forget about her. She clearly isn't a very good friend to do something nasty and then get all upset when it was her.

If she isn't willing to talk and make up then don't bother.

 

[Ruby_Red_Robin]

tell your parents.

I did....
