Please tell me this isn't karma for something...

So.

I got a friend request and message on Facebook from an Amanda Marie. The name already made me wary to add, but I did it anyway. Now I don't use Facebook hardly at all as it is because I really have no desire to be a part of this... social networking bullshit as it is today, but a few people including my brother talked me in to having one.

Now I regret it. Amanda Marie is none other than the same Amanda N. that made my life hell in those last weeks of high school after years of supposed friendship.

Anyway. I replied to her, she asked how I was, I said fine and asked why she was even contacting me, and she said 'we used to be friends, I just wanted to see how you were doing'. After bringing up high school, she claims she doesn't remember. I said "You may not, but I do" and told her that she effectively broke my heart back then. She claims she's changed, isn't the same person anymore, 'honestly doesn't remember' and wants me to tell her what happened.

... what the fuck am I supposed to say to that? Why is she even doing this NOW?

Man. I just don't even know...

Some things are worth getting over. This? This is just some girl from high school who'll be an internet acquaintance at most if you go through the time and effort needed to sort things out.

Cost-benefit analysis says take her back off your friends list and forget it.

Considering that. Sadly she's not 'just some girl'. She was my best friend for five years who turned around and stabbed me in the back and now doesn't remember it.

All the more reason, I'd say. Unless you actually WANT to make up with her, and you don't, neutrality is the best outcome here. Worth it?

I tried a couple of years ago to do that, and she proved to be the same lying bitch she always was, so no, I really don't want to.

I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth calling her out when she claims she doesn't remember.

Me, I'd take her off posthaste.

But then, I maintain a grudge forever when the instigating trauma is huge enough.

I normally don't hold a grudge, but what she did to me was unforgivable. And the fact that she doesn't remember... I know it's been years but that still hurts.

I just closed the tab. Iunno if I'll bother going back to it.
