When my best friend literally went out of his way to f**k every girl I had a crush on and succeeded. Good on him for doing so but it absolutely destroyed my self esteem of which I still have none. This was in high school. I’m 39 and perpetually single. My fault I know.

When he baselessly accused me of having an affair with his wife, who happens to be one of my closest platonic female friends. This was with my wife and his wife present too. When we all flatly denied it, including my own wife who is also best friends with his wife he threatened to punch me in the face if it turned out to be true.

Our theory to this is projection as he stays away on 'buisiness' an awful lot.

Where do I start. 

We moved to a new apartment together. About a month later, she let her wealthy fiance move in without telling me until days before - without asking me if it was okay. And I was still expected to pay half the rent. Months later when I couldn't handle it, I had to ask her to make him cover his portion.

She would tell me rude things and expect me to have no reaction.

She would tell me how to spend my money and would act surprise when I got pissed off. Then she would say, "Wow, I didn't think you were the kind of person who let money matter to them."

After she forced me to move out, she didn't send me anything I asked her to send me. Everything I really treasured that was too big for my two pieces of luggage were all lost - paintings i bought from my favorite artist, my jewelry-making supplies, my clothes. Of course, she kept everything I ever gave her. I still cry thinking about it now. .

She came to my (and my roommate's) room crying. We of course let her in and tried to find out what was wrong. She starts telling us all about her relationship and how it's gone so wrong.

She's been abusing her partner for literal months, being physically violent to him, emotionally manipulative, and threatening suicide every time he tries to leave her. Meanwhile she's gotten super close to his family and her partner has been too ashamed to tell any of them what she's been doing to him-- only her side of the story has reached them. Finally the partner has managed to cut ties fully and block her everywhere and tell his brother about it, ensuring he has some support. However, evidently, she's just taken a pregnancy test and it's positive. So she wants to get back in touch with him so he can take responsibility-- but she adds in that it'd be nice if he texted her for her birthday too, and really they should just talk because she's sure she can convince him to come back to her.

My roommate and I are just making horrified eye contact and trying to firmly tell her that she needs to leave this poor man alone and get her s**t together. Eventually we calm her down enough that she decides to go home and leaves our dorm. I have no idea what happened with the situation after that: we made a real effort not to ever see her again. She ended up getting kicked out of our college for calling in a false gun threat. No idea why she told us everything-- we weren't /that/ close and (we thought!) never gave off vibes that we would be okay and supportive of abuse!!

When they treat someone fair to their face, then put them down, ridicule, and criticize them to their back. Really sends me down that path where I wonder what they say about me when my back is turned.

Moved into our first apartment together and at first he was a great roommate. Over time he started working extra shifts and spent a lot of time at work, so he was really only home to sleep. He started to get very passive aggressive about things like the electric bill because of this, to the point where he would seemingly wake up from a dead sleep to turn off lights when I left a room for more than a minute, or intentionally make things inconvenient around the apt to "teach me a lesson".

The point where it got ridiculous was any time he was home he would turn off the AC/Heater, regardless of the weather. One morning I woke up drenched in sweat and sick to my stomach because he turned off the AC the night before and my room was boiling. I was so f****d up I had just enough energy to crawl out of my room and into the living room(the only part of the apt that didn't face the sun in the morning) and promptly passed out on the floor in my underwear.

But the point where is got malicious was that following winter. I like to sleep in in colder temps, so not having the heater on all the time really didn't bother me much, but one day as I was leaving the apt to get groceries, I peered into his room and saw him packing up a space heater. Knowing what he was doing, I asked him why he had a space heater... He said he tried to use it to heat his room, but it did not work well enough. I just laughed in his face. He was so determined to enact his own form of retribution over the electricity bill, he arguably made it worse by using a space heater in an attempt to make a point. He never actually had a face to face conversation about it with me, and after that night I didn't care.

Ultimately we went our separate ways, and he moved out of state. I understand where he was coming from in retrospect, but if he had just done the bare minimum and had an honest conversation with me, I would have been receptive. Instead, He treated it like a game, and if he made my life inconvenient enough I would relent...

Went from victim to abuser real quick. Turns out if a person is consistently in f****d up situations or has f****d up friends, they’re the constant and that pattern of behavior will eventually reach back to you. It’s also a good rule of thumb that if they refuse to communicate about their feelings, as in they’re avoiding them or confronting someone about them, they will neglect yours.

There were several.

She talked trash about others’ appearances from time to time.

She acted like I was wrong for being upset that my at the time bf wouldn’t talk to me for days at a time after a fight. Acted like it was ridiculous that I wanted some sort of timeline as to when he’d be ready to talk.

She’d yell at employees off the clock.

Had a friend group, and in it was this woman who told the friend group that I was black mailing her, stalking, and harassing her. Of course they sided with her. Told em to go to the police if she had evidence. Of course nothing came up from it.

Childhood best friend (Chbf) invited me to an out of town music festival, didn’t offer a ticket (the ticket thing really shouldn’t matter, but it will) nor did they let me know what the hotel arrangement was. I meet Chbf there, after making my own hotel arrangements, only to find out that Chbf had brought someone else whom I’d never met and whom they just met a few months prior. His ticket and hotel were paid for…

We went on, no biggie, I brought some alcohol and some weed, Chbf said they would “sneak it in”. They rushed on at the gate, I didn’t see them for a while (I, luckily, had other people there I could hang out with). We find each other later for them to admit they’d already drank and burned most of everything that I had brought. I left on the spot and went on a 3 hour drive home.

This was only the “beginning.” Some b******t came before this and much more came afterwards. I’ve, since, gone great lengths to not have to see this person again.
