Jazz Queen
She quit being my friend towards the end of our senior year of high school. We went to a small school where there was a homecoming coronation for everything. She wanted to be band queen really badly, but I won.
Not because I campaigned or anything, but probably because I was the band president, the only senior girl in jazz band, and hung out with some of the younger kids because I have a younger brother and/or they were in jazz with me.
Even her mom was mad at me for winning it, even though I literally did nothing. It was just a vote of all the band kids. I wasn’t about to apologize for it either, because it wasn’t my fault and it’s a really stupid reason to cut off your best friend.
Now almost ten years later, I still don’t regret not apologizing but it does kind of make me sad that I don’t talk to anyone from high school anymore. But I’ve got much better college friends and now work friends so I don’t need that kind of negativity. Story credit: Reddit / princessavery
