My name’s Emma (25F). I’m pretty shy and not the best in big groups, but I’ve been trying to push myself socially. My friend Maya invited me to her birthday dinner, and it was a big group of people I didn’t know. Pretty much as soon as I got there, she started making jokes about me being antisocial. Stuff like, Everyone clap, Jessica actually came out and Don’t mind her, she freezes around humans. Everyone laughed, but I was mortified. I pulled her aside and quietly told her the comments were making me uncomfortable. She brushed it off and kept doing it anyway. After the third or fourth jab, I just paid for my food, told her happy birthday, and left. I didn’t make a scene. Later, she texted me saying I ruined the vibe and made her look bad. A mutual friend said she’s still annoyed and thinks I owe her an apology. I honestly didn’t think leaving was a big deal, but now I’m second guessing myself. AITA for walking out?
