That’s giving mean girl Hun im sorry. If it were me I would consider talking to them or slowly back away from the friendship to see if they initiate anything. True friends see that you’re pulling away and ask why or initiate more than normal

meant it to be mean but i honestly would appreciate an opinion of “yeah that would be embarassing for me too” or if its obviously like “she’s just ribbing you and your anxiety is turning it into an implied rejection” from someone unbiased so im gonna include a sc w/ sensitive info blocked. just like how do yall read this

I don’t know if it was intentional, but I would definitely feel hurt if someone said that about me in a group chat. feels kinda othering. if she’s a good friend I would just tell her (in person or in a separate chat, prob not the group chat) that hearing that hurt your feelings. I have done that before when my friend said something about my outfit that rly hurt my feelings, and they were really apologetic cuz they didn’t mean it like that.

Not a big fan of this approach tbh. Pulling away instead of communicating is a childish way of dealing with conflict, which isn’t entirely fair to the other person, as people aren’t formulaic like that. Pulling away for something the other person COULD have just meant as a pure, unmalicious joke could leave them very confused about what they did wrong and think YOURE now just being mean to THEM. Honest and open communication leaves no gaps for this type of misunderstanding
