Hi hope you are all well at this moment

@Lion1967 i hear you there. Bullying is nastiness, isolating individuals is even worse. I find it bemusing how friendships end up down this path when theyve known you. Trouble is, distancing yourself causes isolation. However, in reality your friend should have the sense to understand.

@Lion1967 I think you should confront your friend about it.. ask them what went wrong? As far as the rumours are concerned, people who really matter would not believe them. And I know it's easier said than done , but try and ignore what people think of you. Because in your heart you who you are and other people's opinions don't really matter..Hope this helps..
