So over the past few weeks, my high school friends have gotten into a huge fight. Like, very huge. Like, all of them are involved in it, and it's escalated to the point of police involvement. And you know what? I'm sick and tired of it.
Seriously. You are not in high school anymore. You are grown-ups. All of you are older than me by at least a year, for pity's sake. The pettiness and gossip and "he said/she said" stuff was okay back in high school, but now some of you are in college, and the others have jobs in the real world. Just because she's marrying your ex, doesn't mean that she took him away from you. You guys haven't even dated in six months. And as for you, just because she's spreading vicious rumors and talking bad about you doesn't mean you have to threaten her. Once again, I'll repeat. You are adults. This is a major life change for one of you- she's about to get married! And you should be happy for her, not trying to turn her friends against her like we're freshmen again.
Don't drag me in the middle of it, at any rate. There's enough drama in college for me to deal with drama from my past. These are my thoughts on the matter- She was wrong to threaten you, yes. And conversely, you were wrong to say all the shit you said and do all the shit you did. I am going to her wedding, because she's a good friend of mine and I want to celebrate the start of a new life for her. I'm not going to listen to anyone's side of the story anymore. It's over, it's done with, MOVE THE HELL ON.
This whole thing has made me look at my own life a lot. I've wasted a lot of my time in the past few months worrying about the Darcy guy and having petty fights with him and such... and now I realize that I was acting no better than all my old friends are right now.
