Perhaps you subconsciously believe you could have controlled the situation.

Perhaps you're just more hurt by it than you otherwise would have been if it wasn't a close friend.

Perhaps it was even your fault and you don't want to admit it yet.

I have no idea, and I'm not judging, but those are the usual suspects when it comes to mentally rehashing. If this is a thing that happens routinely with you though, it might be time to examine why.

I have an inkling of a possible reason, but it's complicated. The thing is, I make good first impressions, but underneath that I'm pretty intense, and the longer I'm friends with someone, the less I can conceal that. So I've had a lot of people simply stop wanting me around, and eventually I catch on. That's what usually happens.

But with her, it was different: she was doing something I found insulting and refused to stop, so I fought back for once. As I said in my response to kaijin, she and I had such different mindsets that she actually could not understand why I was bothered by what she was doing. And I was at a loss to explain it, because it seemed so fundamentally obvious to me. To this day it still does. So what felt to me like standing up for myself looked like a random act of betrayal to her.

Granted, I acknowledged even back then that I wasn't completely in the right with what I did, but it led to some unexpected consequences courtesy of a third party, and she blamed me for that as well, which I do feel was unwarranted.

Jesus, I should just type up the actual fucking story if I'm going to be trying to explain this shit. XP

You can if you want. Sometimes it helps you work through it and get some perspective if you are reading your own thoughts on the matter.

I find all relationship matters are complicated, even the one with ostensibly black and white answers involved. Everyone's reasoning is born of hundreds of thousands of contingencies and experiences, but understanding your own can help you to stop making the same mistake in the future. ...In this case it might just be that you need to start living by the old adage of "be yourself" in order to make friends that will match your personality type.
