It’s Hard To Catch Up

Hey you all. It has been about three days since I last posted–I think. I haven’t really been active except for reading posts, liking, and commenting. I have been really sick this week, and this is week two. We had a Homecoming game yesterday, and I had to call my dad to pick me up early. Apparently, right after I left, that’s when the excitement started, so that made me feel like crap. Yay. I don’t really have anything to post, oh except for one thing.

There is this guy in my grade who LOVES to torture me by teasing me. And it was starting to get really mean. So I tell him to stop, back off, the usual. But he doesn’t. Like most boys do. So two days ago, while I was waiting for my mom to pick me up from school, I was with two of my friends when he came over. They told me that he liked one of my other friends and I could tell they were lying. I have like this built in lie detector. Whenever I know someone is lying I just keep quiet and don’t say anything. He didn’t really like my friend, why would they lie to me?

A few hours later, my friend Ryley (the friend who lied to me) texted me. Here is how our convo went:

Ryley: LARA ARE YOU THERE. HELLLOOOO. WE NEED TO TALK LIKE WHENEVER YOU READ THIS.

Me: Hey Ryley whats up. Something wrong??? What happened???

Ryley: So you remember how I told you that they guy (I’m just gonna call him ‘the guy’) likes her?

Me: Um yeah…? So what?

Ryley: Well I was lying….he actually likes you.

Me: Yeah right. He is so freaking me to me all the time and tortures me to death

Ryley: Just plz don’t tell him I told you okay? He would kill me!!!

Me: kk fine. I wont tell him, but that doesn’t mean I believe you.

Ryley: thx for understanding gtg, bye ❤

I don’t get this. They say boys tease you because they like you, but I know from experience that’s not true. But now apparently it is. I have no clue how to respond to this. I just cant put up with this right now. I have a lot of late work because I get so sick at night I cant focus on it and give up (and I don’t tell my parents about that….), and with adding this on top of my plate, I just cant deal with it right now. I don’t even know how to respond!

Any advice? Should I tell him that Ryley told me? Or should I keep quiet?? I don’t even know whether to believe her? I know he is always looking over at me, but I thought it was just because he was thinking about being mean to me or something.

What is going on…??
