Thanks LMo and Shay. I feel so bad for her. This mess has been going on for months and months. I've already had to deal with the "she was her best friend yesterday, today she hates her, and tomorrow they're best friends again"" mess with another girl.

I know she's just going to have to tough it out, but it's so hard. As adults we can all tell her that in a few years this won't matter, but right now it's the worst time of her life. And, really, is saying it won't matter even telling the truth? How many of us are carrying around self-esteem scars because of how we were treated in school? I know I am.
