did you kill them? if not, then all hope is not lost! you can get them back, if they are worth it, or make new friends that are better if they aren't!

Haha, no, they're not dead. To be honest, with all the drama that goes on between them, I do sometimes wonder if they're worth it...but I always decide they are. I don't think they'll forgive each other this time, and I'm sad about that, but I really hope they forgive me.

I'm sorry anon. What happened?

(Anonymous) 2013-01-07 10:55 am (UTC)(link)
Long story short, I got too involved in some drama that was going on between them, it escalated, and they blamed me for it. (I'm not entirely sure it wasn't my fault either.)

tl;dr version: Friend 1 was talking to me about Friend 2 in a way I thought was insulting. I told 1 that if she didn't tone it down, I would tell 2 what she had said. 1 said she didn't care, so, sick of trying to keep the peace, I followed through. This led to a heated exchange between 1 and 2, which didn't last long. Afterwards we all stopped talking about it and I thought it was over. However, 2 happens to be engaged to Friend 3, and 3 decided it was appropriate to insult 1's fiance in return. 1 chewed me out for relaying the information in the first place. I went and told 3 to back off, which only served to piss him off as well.

If I'd kept my damned mouth shut instead of giving in to my frustration...

Friends 1 and 3 are acting like petty children. 1 shouldn't have chewed you out and 3 had no right to insult 1's fiance when they weren't even involved in this drama. I hope they'll realize how much their actions are hurting everyone and apologize.

I'm sorry, anon. I'm here if you want to talk about it.

The story is above, in my response to anon. But thank you. It's so draining to be friends with people who hate each other...I'm done trying to fix it. I know I'll just get fed up and lash out at them. From now on, I won't mention any of them to each other. We'll talk about shopping and video games, and I'll forget the drama.

If they ever talk to me again, that is.

In general I don't tell people when someone else is talking shit about them, but I can see myself ending up in this same situation and I don't think you should blame yourself for how they're handling it. What I would do is distance yourself from them for a while. If they're going to apologize and make an effort to fix it they should make the first move here. If you're the one who tries to make up with them, it's gonna turn into a vicious cycle. I spent years with a couple of toxic friends and I can't count how many times ended up apologizing for things that I felt they should have apologized for. My life improved a lot after I cut them out of it, and I have new friends now.

To be honest the fact that your original post says this has happened before and the fact that you wonder if they're worth it makes me think that they're really not worth it, but that's your call.
