A platonic girl-friend of mine with the same social circle as I, who probably has some minor latent attraction for me, sent me this bomb-shell.
Needless to say, I was seriously pissed off at her gameplaying.
"Have you ever been in a fight?"
"No. Why?"
"it's just I heard something different..."
"Ha... ok, cough it up. What did I do?" (I expected I had had another drunk night and remember nothing and that she was just joking)
"Hit someone for no reason. dont know when it was supposed to have happened.."
"Really? I must've absolutely tanked. Don't remember that. Whom does this concern?"
"I don't know either. just a rumor!"
"Do yourself a favor and think about what it is you want, before you waste my time with stupid shit like this"
"Chill out! I can't believe you think it's OK to use that tone with me. I'm confronting you as a friend with a rumor I was unfortunate to hear."
"You're not a teenager anymore, so you should know better. I'm open and honest with you, you owe me the same. So say what this is about or tell whoever it is that, spreading lies about others is inexcusable."
"Fine! I'll do that! I DONT know any more details than I told you. And never call me dishonest again!"
I didn't see a need to respond to the last, although I might later - I was busy at work.
Afterwards, I regretted not just writing instead "Well, if I did hit someone, they probably deserved it." That might have baited the answer out of her.
Thing is, I don't remember hitting someone for no reason ever. 6 years ago I gave a friend a concussion at a party, and I imagine she might be referring to that, because that's where we know the same people. 2 years ago, I knocked a guy out, but that wasn't really a fight and he deserved it.
Then there's the times I was shit-housed, but I don't remember ANYTHING of what I did, so I really couldn't say one or another.
I'd be indifferent but getting this stuff from a supposed friend who was game-playing was a mark of disloyalty I can't tolerate. So I want to get some male critique on whether I was within my rights.
