What's the worst thing you ever told a friend?

Asked by ScottyMcGeester (1897points) June 25th, 2014

And are they still your friend? Did you get to make up even after that?

One day I found a funny line featuring my BFF’s favorite band on the internet. I thought it was hilarious and I said the line to her. I never knew she got offended and accused me of degrading her idols. She didn’t talk to me for 2 days.

We made up after that. She said she forgave me because I didn’t understand the band so I couldn’t get the offensive part.

It’s a toss up.

“Life fucked me harder than you ever did.” didn’t sit well with my ex boyfriend. We talk occasionally. Friendly, but not friends.

The other was “The only person that has ever let me down more often than God, is you.”
He and I are not friends anymore. I don’t want to be.

I was once put in the uncomfortable position of being asked by a friend about the rumors that the woman he adored was sleeping around. It was only a rumor to him. Everyone else knew it for a fact. I took the coward’s way out and answered “how would I know ?” I then suggested that he should ask her. It was bad advice. He ruined her prized beauty pageant trophy when utilizing it to give her a concussion. He’s now a convicted felon assumed to have a penchant for beating women.

A really dumb friend who was smart enough to be an adept manipulator some years ago. I called her ‘Mrs. Potato head” and that trying to have an intelligent conversation with her was like giving a Rolex to someone who couldn’t tell time. lol

Wow, @stanleybmanly, however you aren’t responsible.

I guess its a toss up I told a friend that he caused me a lot of pain, i cant remember my wording exactly. Which wasn’t true. We are still on the mend from that one. I think that’s the worst one because we are really old friends and both of us could use the moral support.

Another time I had to tell a friend that I couldn’t handle her lifestyle any more. That was bad because she was really sweet and hurt about it. But it was the truth.

I told a fashion model friend of mine he was thick as shit, he laughed it off & said he was off to live in Rome, or as he put it…“the capital of France”
Bless, never seen or heard of him since.

A friend of mine got tangled up with some goons and credit card fraud. We had all done some silly stuff, but this was big money with scary dudes. We warned him to not get involved, but he apparently didn’t listen. One day he shows up at my (now) in-laws house where I was having Sunday dinner with my (then) girlfriend and her folks.

“You gotta help me. They’re gonna kill me”, he tells me in the doorway to the kitchen. I immediately thought of my girlfriend, her family, and the life I hoped we’d have together and said, “I’m sorry Donald, I can’t help you with this. You might want to get running”.

Never saw him again.

Last year, 35 years after graduating from college, I told a Fraternity brother that he was a racist and a bigot and that I would not tolerate his hateful speech on my Facebook page. Then I de-friended him.

I told my buddy he was a junkie (heroin) and therefore as a friend he was like an anchor tied around my neck.
I then 86’d his butt from my life. (we had been friends since early childhood and this occurred in our mid 20s).

A friend of mine had a pretty big surgery once. He was covered with a white blanket up to his head when he woke up. He was barely awake and I told him “Sorry, something went wrong during the surgery. You are just a head now.” He just wimpered “Nooo.” and drifted back to sleep.
