Need advice :))
Hey, i was skiing with 2 friends of our 4 friend group, without the one friend because she cant ski, an i didnt know if i should text her about that, i wanted to do it so I asked my other friends what they would write because i wanted to be careful what i write because my friend would get angry.
And my 2 friends didnt say what i should write they were like Idk, and then I didn’t write anything. And my 2 friends said to the other friend in school we were skiing without saying something to me.
And the „other friend“ we call her Eli was getting better with one person and because of that „eli“ moved a little bit away from out friendgroup. And me and the other 2 people often talked about that the person was bad influence for eli and stuff like that, and it was all true. And when my 2 friends said that about skiing to eli they also said that we talked about her because she moved away from our friend group and elis friend was bad influence, and they said it alone.
And now they say im a fake person because i didnt say anything to eli, but i had said something, but not alone, my other 2 friends wouldnt say it alone either. And now they blame me for everything, but my other 2 friends did the same thing as me.
And now they come up with fights between us from 1 year ago, where everything was already clarified. In this one fight one friend texted me how bad the other friend ist and what she has done, and then i said thats because when the other friend does something she does like its okay for her, and i said she should say it straight when something is not okay.
And i showed the text my friend wrote the other friend (wich was clearly not okay for me to do) but when i didnt do it , my friend would never say that thats not okay what my other friend did. And now they blame me for everything, that i am guilty for all the fights between them.
Because when they had a fight both texted me, what the other person has done, and in some points I agreed to things from this person and in some from the other person. And they also said that I insulted their family members, for example my friend said that her sisters are annoying, and I said yes as a joke, but they take things so seriously and blame me for everything. But they did things also as „worse“ like me, but they say that I am guilty for everthing wich is cleary not true.
I mean im very sorry for that what I did but they cant blame it ALL on me. And we had a long fight over text, but when i asked them yesterday in school whats wrong they said nothing, and its much better to discuss something like that in person, but now its school brake for a week.
And do you think they will like me again, because i never meant to hurt somebody on purpose, and i actually love my friends and they are really important to me? And what should i do? And they wont even listen to my side of the story they only believe and things they said to each other without me.

Sounds toxic. Reminds me of my elementary school days.
It is tough to be a friend to two drama-loving friends and one friend distancing from the group. It is not okay for them to be blaming you for their issue. In most cases, it is better for you to not make any comments back by text and simply state that if they wanna meet up and talk. However, it seems like you won't avoid the drama. They tend to put you right in the middle then blame you when nothing is fixed. The best I can say is, if you don't want the drama distance yourself. Sometimes there are relationship that cannot be repaired. Sometimes you will have to set up boundaries.
I hope the best for you.
Thank you for reply!
You‘re right, the problem is they are/were my only friends, and its really hard for me to find new friends so its pretty bad, and I‘m scared that I will hurt my self again because I did that long time ago.
I mean in elementary school I was also really alone and I had toxic fake friends so I think I can be „alone“ for a time , but now it‘s different because it was perfect I had my group of friends and actually there weren‘t much problems, (except the one friend distanced herself from us) and then suddenly everything went bad and I dont even know all the things this one friend said about me, but what I know what she said were lies.
