So until a few days ago I had been a member of this forum called the NW, it was a writing forum. Problem was my ex-good-friend was also on the forum. She actually moved back to Australia after two weeks of us not being friends.
Anyway she seemed to decide that it was a fine thing to do to start spouting out my secrets on an internet forum, when I threatened legal action unless she took them down she refused so I told her that unless she took it down I would contact her parents who she is currently living with. It ended up getting so bad I was suicidal, and my parents decided to call her parents and things have cleared themselves up and I have left the forum.
However, most of the people on the forum said threatening to call her parents was totally unreasonable and made out like I was just running to my parents to tattle or whatever and that at 19 and 20 we should have been old enough to deal with it without parents. The problem is, if I had called her myself I know exactly what would have happened. We would have shouted at eachother for 15 minutes and nothing else would have happened. I am just sick of feeling like a bad person for bringing in mediators in what felt like a hopeless situation and people were criticising me to the point where I got extremely upset, especially because some of these people were taking sides in a friendship or lack of one that they hadn't experienced nor did they know anything about.
They have this NW secrets thing as well which is a bit like Post Secret but doesn't work and turns into a place for peope to backstab and yesterday someone (I am fairly sure it was the girl who despite never having met Merrin defends her to the grave) saying 'Cara: you are a crusty c***ed attention wh*** with a victim complex. It is no wonder you starve yourself in a pathetic failed attempt to appear more attractive outwardly. I would do the same thing if I was as ugly inside as you.'
I'm trying to not take it to heart but yeah .
