Is it a good idea to just end the friendship?
I have a friend, Anna. She was very close to me in the 2nd half of last year, but during the finals she just stopped talking to me. I was incredibly upset and hurt. Not to mention that I gave her a lot of little presents. Then in late November last year during the holidays, Anna and her 2 friends, Jan and Valerie, cyber-bullied me on twitter. They used indirect tweeting (making it clear that it was directed at me, but they didn't mention my name). Valerie called me "retard" and used the f-word on me. Jan even called me a "dumbtard". Anna just said mean things about me. But when school reopened at the new term started, the 3 of them didn't want to talk to me and I didn't even want to look at them. I felt so used and so frustrated. But I was just very upset at the same time. But in June this year, Anna apologised for what they did to me and I forgave her. She seemed pretty sincere about it. So the whole bullying system was somewhat not spoken about.

Anna was very very close to Belinda over the course of the 6 months when we weren't talking to each other. Belinda and Anna were like BFFs, they were so close, Anna was able to confide in Belinda so much. And I was happy that Anna had someone to talk to. In September this year, Belinda, I and a couple of friends went to Australia for a school trip. But during the trip, Belinda didn't reply to Anna's messages to her. (Anna wasn't selected to go for the school trip) But I was able to because I had wifi in my hands. Anna was very worried and took it as Belinda didn't want to talk to her anymore.

So Anna came to me and confided in me and told her all her troubles and problems. I would patiently read every message and try to comfort her and tell her to cheer up. When she needed Belinda to know something, I would help Anna tell Belinda her "message". I helped the two friends reconcile again and become best friends again after like a month. Anna was very depressed during that period of time and I helped to tell her to cheer up. I was like her support when she needed someone. I was there when she needed someone to talk to about her Belinda problems. But when Belinda and Anna became best friends again, Anna just ditched me. I felt so used and I had no idea why. I was there for her but she just threw me away after using me. I felt so hurt and this isn't the first time she has used me. But I still treasure Anna as a friend and I don't want to lose her as a friend because I've shared so many happy memories with her despite the sad ones. Please help me, I don't know what to do I feel so used. Sad Thank you if you have answered and if you have taken the time to read this whole story Smile

That's how I feel with my friends. They are always together, and they would make me tag along behind them. I felt like I was just a back-up friend for either of them, to be there just so they wouldn't feel lonely even though they left me alone many times before.

Try to get some other friends whom you know will never use you. Then if Anna comes running back to you again, help her also. If you feel like she could still be a good friend, just try to hang on for a while and be there for her. But if ever she will just use you, then ignore you again, confront her about it. Tell her how you feel. If she stops using and ignoring you, then she is a good friend. But if it will really not get in to her head and will just use you again, she doesn't deserve a good friend like you. No one deserves to feel like a third wheel.
