My girlfriend and I just broke up about 5 days ago. I'm not trying to point blame here, but everything was her fault. I don't want to get too into detail with it, it's personal, but I broke up with her because of something stupid she did... I am working on forgiving her and hopefully giving a second chance. After the break up she explained that she regrets what she had done and was balling her eyes out. I offered to fix things with her but at the time she was as mad as I was and avoided the suggestion.
Now first off, I would like to just say that this girl is bipolar and depressed, but I've been trying to be her backbone through it all, and I really do care about her.
My friend totally went off on her. She told her everything, straight up, and made her feel like s***, honestly. She had done it publicly (on facebook) as well.
She came at me with this, trying to blame me, saying "I never thought you'd go that low, now people I don't even know are harassing me and calling me names. It's gotten to the point where I've harmed myself. HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY! <3"
She knows I hate the fact that she hurts herself, so I saw this as attention, and an attack on me, though I was innocent through it all. I told my friend what had happened, but did not expect it to go to the lengths that it did, so her blaming me like this felt like an attack. I told her I had nothing to do with this, I had no control over it, and I wasn't the one calling her names and harassing her.
She admitted she knows she messed up big time, and as if she didn't already feel terrible about it, now people are attacking her on it. She said "My life was hell before this, and now it's even worse... I'm sorry I hurt you... Goodbye.." and deactivated her facebook.
A few hours later, she sends me "What I did was wrong, but people make mistakes, whether if it was on purpose or an accident, there are cycles of life and each cycle you are meant to learn from mistakes." I told her "You're right. And I offered to look past those mistakes and fix things between us." She then tried blaming me for this again saying "But then you had to go tell your little friend, and this has all gotten so bad to the point where I'm about to just delete my facebook for good."
I got angry again and told her I had hardly anything to do with it, not to blame me, there was nothing I could have done. I said I was sorry that this had happened to her but I didn't do it, and there was nothing I could have done regardless. Then I told her to just delete and block those who are bullying her. She read it but didn't reply. The next day, yesterday she deactivated her facebook again, and today it is back up.
I did say "sorry this happened to you" but it wasn't very sincere. Do you think I should sincerely apologize for what my friend did, although it was not my fault? I believe I should take responsibility for this since it is my friend after all. I truly do still care about this girl and want to take her back and give her a second chance but I don't know what to do.
