What you don't know can't hurt you.... right?

I had a fallout with my insensitive friend who would always say mean things in an innocent good conversation, she would make sneaky jabs.... last week I stopped answering her calls, yesterday she knocked my door I looked hole thingy and ignored her, so she left a recording on my WhatsApp, I'm tempted to listen but I'm very sensitive incase she starts yelling or swearing.... should I just delete it without listening after all what you don't hear can't hurt you!

I think right now you'd be quite within your rights to say go away i got troubles of my own.

I've had to take similar action to one of my neighbours just lately.
@Picklebobble2 Thanks for responding, some people Eh? yes your right with the pandemic still looming no one has time for added pressure.

@RadiantRuby I often think you're better off staying quiet but some folk see that as an opportunity to 'dump' or 'rain' on you at a time when you'd cheerfully strangle them if they had any idea how frustrated you are yourself.

I had a friend like that. I just didn’t like her. We were friends for 5 years but she always criticized me. I got tired of it, and I don’t take responsibility for it except to acknowledge that I shouldn’t have been friends with her because I ignored her bullshit and pretended it didn’t bother me but it did. I paid for it in the end. I need to learn a lot about boundaries.
@Spoiledbrat Me too, I regret becoming friends with her. I saw the red flags early on but ignored them. Sigh* so sad some people feed of negativity. She called me fat out of mo where! That was uncalled for. Then she had the audacity to come to my place unannounced. Bich please lol
My friend did that too. She was kind of narcissist and self absorbed. But she would put me down and tell me I need to work out. I was like, like I didn’t know that. If I had wanted to I would have. @RadiantRuby

You'll also wonder about it. Why not just sit this "friend" down and tell her what she's doing and why you will no longer accept it. Then it is on her...not you.
@easterniowegin I've helped her so much then she grew jealous because I have more resources than her. In the beginning of the pandemic I've lent her money twice .....last week she visited me and looked really nice in my opinion, then she told me I got fat, I honestly did not, she even told me I had stomach rolls wtf lol I decided to stop talking to her after that. Is she worth talking to, bitting the hand that fed her in dire need.... all together I lent her 500 dollars that she never returned

@RadiantRuby sometimes a quick comeback to put her in her place is necessary.
Women sometimes do these little tests, just to see how their friends/partners react. They want to find out, are they really a friend, will they hold them accountable, will they stand firm...

Hang on to it, don't listen to it now but wait a while. You will satisfy your curiosity and the sting will have passed and it wont affect you as much.
@curiosi good idea 😊
