“Riding on that high, I suggested our little group of friends have a party to celebrate.”
Her 5 best friends went out with her for a night out, which is something they were unable to do for a long time.
“We had a fun party, it was mostly just an excuse to get some friends together and let loose, but a few things happened that I know people might find distasteful,” she continued.
“We called it a “deathday party” and toasted to that. And when we went to pee we’d joke about “pouring one out for the deceased”.”
The night ended, life went on, and everything seemed fine, but then friends outside of her tight circle started hearing about what she had done.
“I said that the guy had died and I’d thrown a party, and some of my friends mentioned the toast, and some of the dark jokes,” she wrote.
It never occurred to her and her friends to be careful of their words, since they figured the rest of their friends would be understanding of their feelings.
It didn’t quite go that way though, and many of her friends accused her of being “distasteful,” “vindictive,” and “gross” for throwing the party in the first place.
It’s gotten so bad that the coaches of the sports team she plays on are considering kicking her out for being a bad representation of them all.
She really doesn’t get why so many people are not seeing things her way.
Here’s what the internet had to say.
