Today, while with a large group of friends, my best friend started talking about my struggles with dating and intimacy. I quietly asked her to stop talking about it, as it was personal and I wasn't comfortable with everyone else knowing. Her response? "Um, it's really none of your business." FML

Hey, OP here. I made an account so that I could comment. When it happened, there was nothing I could say to her to make her stop. I asked her several times to please stop talking about it, and I was so embarrassed, but she wouldn't listen to me. I ended up just getting my stuff together and leaving. I'm not very close to the people in the group, so I felt uncomfortable with being so exposed to them. I talked to her afterwards in private and told her that it was really uncool of her to keep talking about it when I asked her to stop. She claimed that she didn't think it was that big of a deal, since when I told her at the time, I didn't say that it was meant to be a secret. I guess I just never thought to let her know that I didn't want her to blab to everyone about my personal issues. She also made sure to clarify to me that when she said it wasn't any of my business, she meant that it was not my conversation to butt into, even though I was literally right beside her. This incident made me realize that she really isn't a very good friend to me. She has never acted this way until recently, so I never thought to avoid telling her things. I do know that I'll definitely not be confiding in her anymore though.

I'd reconsider calling her your 'best' friend

Quite the friend you have there OP. Surely hope you put her in her place and took up for yourself since she obviously has no respect for you! Definitely don't trust her anymore...

uuuuuuhhhh is your friend retarded?

NOT YOUR FRIEND. Get one that respects, supports and encourages you.

Not only did that not make any sense on your friend's part, but that was really shitty for her not to respect your privacy when you told her to stop. Yeah def reconsider the relationship you have with her

It's possible you misunderstood her and truly she was talking about her own or someone else's struggle, it explains why she could've said it's none of your business

Well keep your friends close and your enemies closer. She should be almost on top of you. Sorry OP but now you know she is a snake in the grass.

OP you really need a new best friend. I could never imagine my friends talking about my personal stuff like that let alone my best friend! She obviously does not respect you.

Well that friend is going places. Not college, but places...

"None of your business"? It's ALL your business! I would seriously reconsider calling her your "best" friend. Or even friend at this point.
