AITA for getting upset after my friends told me no one wanted me there and left me?

I know this sounds small and petty, but there’s context.

Something serious happened and it’s an ongoing case, so my mental health hasn’t been great. I’m not using that as an excuse, but it definitely affects how I react to things.

So here’s what happened.

I was out with my friends “Chloe,” “Sam,” “Sophia,” and “Marcella.” I asked Sam to let me know when the food was gonna be ready (or just grab it for me) because I wanted to quickly say goodbye to Marcella before we left and she said okay. Well, she never called me!

Chloe then called me annoyed, saying the food was ready. I was trying to find her car, and Sophia happened to see me and offered to help me look for it. When we were on the call, Chloe said the food was already in the car, but it actually wasn’t.

I asked Chloe if I could quickly grab my food. I told her I’d literally be a minute. She said no.

At that point Sam was saying stuff like “just leave” and “no one even wants you here.” That really hurt. So I got out of the car because I wasn’t going to sit there while being told that.

and Chloe just drove off, which fair enough but still

Sophia happened to still be nearby and confronted Chloe about leaving me on my phone. Which annoyed Chloe cause she claims she never left me because i got out of the car, but eventually after waiting Chloe did came back, but she had already called the police and my grandma to come get me.

This is where I’ll admit I messed up. When i got back in the car they kept calling me crazy and asking if I was “okay in the head,” I got really upset and said I’d jump out of the car. I wouldn’t actually hurt myself, but I said it in the moment because I felt cornered and attacked.

They ended up bringing me to the guards, and I had to explain everything. It was humiliating. I told them about my ongoing case and that I haven’t been okay mentally, but I would never actually harm myself. They separated us and just had my grandma bring me home. Like we were all drunk but i’m sure there could’ve been a better way to handle this

Now both Chloe and Sam refuse to talk to me ever again and I know threatening to jump out of the car was wrong. But I also feel like being told no one wanted me there, being left, and having the guards called over something that started as a food mix-up was extreme.

  1. NTA They’re not your friends. They probably never really considered you a friend. As a fellow Swiftie (I caught that reference!), you deserve better.

  2. INFO: where do you live that you can just call the police to pick someone up? Can you explain? Call an uber maybe but the police???
    I feel like there’s multiple missing pieces here… if you went out with all these people why wasn’t Sophia with them? Why didn’t you know where the car was? Why was food brought to the car, did you go into a fast food place? Very confusing.

    1. I can’t believe how far I had to scroll to find a comment like this. Like what place is bringing food to a car but the lot is supposedly so big that OP couldn’t find her friend’s car? Also I think in the US you can ask police to give you a ride if you’re stranded (which OP technically was) and I mean at least the friends called them and tried to make sure she was safe after ditching her. But yeah whole story is wild and confusing. 

  3. NTA. being told no one wants you there is messed up that would hurt anyone especially when you’re already not in a great place

  4. INFO: I think a lot of information is missing. Its rare that people just act like that big of jerks out of the blue and for no reason. They REALLY didn’t want you there. I think there is a reason why.

  5. look.. sam saying “no one wants you here” started this whole fire. you reacted badly, yeah, the car thing was too far and you know that. but they were cruel first and then acted shocked when you broke. cruelty isnt a food mix up.
