[QUOTE="Herobizkit, post: 6232066, member: 36150"] Lawyered. :3 I remember a time when my childhood friend was accused of saying jerky things about another person, causing her to yell at him and forbid him from visiting her house (the place where we all hung out). Everyone except me believed my pal said what they were told, jumping to the girl's defense. I found out where the accusation came from, found and confronted the guy who started the rumour, and made the guy face my pal and (sort of) apologize for the whole thing. My pal was never allowed back to the house, and he also took it personally that I didn't tell the whole group to piss off and leave with him. At the time, I felt I had done the right thing to try and make peace with everyone, but the girl refused to believe the truth even after it was revealed and wouldn't change her mind. So, for a time, I lost one of my oldest childhood friends over defending a jerk - in this case, it was the girl AND the other guy who were both being jerks. We eventually reconciled, but it was an intense time for everyone involved. [/QUOTE]
