Final Words to You

I'm not going to sit online and trade pithy insults with you. I'm not going to tell all my friends what's going on between us. I'm not going to talk bad about you behind your back.

I've done nothing wrong. And yet, you've chosen to attack me--passive-aggressively, of course. You've even tried to make me feel guilty about it. You've tried to make me feel guilty about doing nothing wrong.

I know you do it for attention and I'm going to be completely honest with you (like I always have been): I laugh whenever you make these desperate bids for my attention and pity and anger. They don't make me regret losing your friendship--they solidify my reasoning for cutting it off.

I've done nothing but be honest with you. I guess I expected you to be mature enough to handle it, even though I knew you weren't. I'm still not taking the blame for that, though. You should be mature enough to handle truth. You're not five, you're twenty-one.

The only thing that's bothered me about this falling out is that you've obviously been slandering me. Maybe not to a lot of people, but certainly to the people that we both value as friends.

Luckily, one of them is mature enough to stay impartial.

(Don't worry, I've already apologized to her for you since you probably don't realize what you're doing.)

The point of this whole post is not to give you the attention you're so hell bent on receiving, but to tell you to knock it off. Call me a self righteous prat, stupid, naive, childish. Whatever, I don't care. But don't go prattling on to our mutual friends about how BETRAYED and IDIOTIC you feel and how OUTRAGED you are because I finally told you exactly how I felt without worrying how it would affect you. If you had any idea what it meant to be a mature adult, this issue wouldn't have gone beyond the two of us, and that's a fact.

This is the first and only thing I'll say to you in public. Since you seem to have blocked me on Whatsapp, I'm not going to go searching for some other way to contact you because, honestly, I don't think you're worth that. So either you get over yourself and see what I've had to say to you in private, or you and the rest of the world have the opportunity to see this.

Either way, I'm done. Have a pleasant life.

Best wishes and God bless,
Karaline

PS: "If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector." - Matthew 18:15-17
