After carefully planning and prepping for a grad party, this teen still couldn't get through the event without her friend bringing a ton of drama with her. Instead of bringing a nice gift, congratulating the new grad, and spending the party eating and socializing, this friend decided that instead, she'd make the whole event about herself. 

In every friend group, there's at least one person who seems like they're always going through something. They're always going through a breakup, their car is broken, they lost their job, and they're fighting with their mom, all at the same time. They just can't keep it together, and they can't wait to tell you all the juicy details. Now, if that friend is a good storyteller, or they're totally hilarious, this isn't the worst thing in the world. People go through things! And as a friend, you can be there for them in good times and bad. 

However, some people can't help but be the drama 100% of the time. Just ask this teen, whose friend pulled some absolutley wild stunts at her party. Read all about it below, and decide which you think is the worst (like doing a random unboxing… just why?!).

Next, read about the worker who happily woke the CEO up in the middle of the night, plus they called 200 customers, just to "prove a point."

    I (19F) graduated in 2024 and had my graduation party in the middle of July. I had lots of family and friends coming and I was really excited to finally have my special day about me. I spent days decorating and making sure everything was perfect before my big day. At first, everything was going very smoothly until my one friend showed up (19F) who I'll call Mary (fake name). Mary was my friend from a different school that I've known

    for about 2 years. I know she has a much harder life than I, but I was always there to be a shoulder to lean on. However, this was MY day that I worked hard for and I didn't want to be a shoulder to cry on this one time. Since this will be too long if I try to tell everything, here is a condensed LIST of things she did at my grad party:

    • 30 minutes after arriving, she told me she wasn't feeling well. I offered her one of the bedrooms inside to rest in and some medicine to help her feel better. Instead of taking this, she declined the medicine and once I went back outside, she proceeded to lay ON THE GROUND inside the main room of the house that many guests were in.

    • Once she started feeling better, she told me that she had a SHEIN package delivered that day that she was too excited to open, so she had her mom drop the package off at my party and forced me to go away from the party and watch her package haul for over 20 minutes.

    • I had an after party with just my friends outside my house after the main family party. When we all got there, she snapped a photo of my boyfriend and brothers and posted it on her Instagram story without anyone's consent, purposefully only getting the men in the video when there were many other women.

    . • Once her boyfriend saw the post, he started spamming her phone to start a fight with her and insulting my bf and brothers. She got on a call with him and screamed at him on the phone for a little bit in the middle of everyone hanging out.

    . Then, she went inside and my parents came out 10 minutes later asking me to "control my friend" and when I walked inside, I could hear her screaming from upstairs. I ran up there and found her laying in my bed UNDER the covers (we were NOT close like that) screaming at her boyfriend still.

    • She kept me up there for a whole hour because she decided it was the perfect time to tell me that her bf was cheating on her and have me comfort her. My friends kept texting me asking where I was but I felt too guilty leaving her alone in that moment. • I let her borrow my new bottle of makeup remover and she used all of it somehow??

    • When she rejoined the party, she sat there crying and sulking. If someone asked if she was okay, she'd say something like "no but I don't matter" or something cringe • My parents told me I had to kick her out but she didn't have a ride because she was planning on spending the night and making me take her home in the morning (which I did not know was

    the plan), so I had to buy her an uber to make her leave. I never reached out to Mary after that, thinking she got the vibe the friendship was over. However, I just received a text from Mary telling me she is pregnant with her ex's baby and that she is having the roughest time of her life, which I need to support her through. To be honest, I could not care less about Mary and her unborn baby, nor do I want anything to do with her craziness.

    Obviously during my graduation party she was going through it, but I just don't want to be in this friendship anymore after my graduation party was my final straw. Does that make me TA?

    T. NTA. That's too much drama and you're too young to have somebody else clinging onto you. You're just starting the peak of your life right now, and your choices shouldn't be revolving around her. She's too codependent on you. Just cut her out.

    When my friend tried to steal from a small business and expected me to lie for her, you bet your a | snipped her out of my life. Straight up ignored her persistent texts from new phone numbers for years.

    Commenters advised this person to move on and find new people to surround herself with

    AdEuphoric1184 ΝΤΑ Don't even respond, just block her everywhere and move on with your life. She sounds like a drama queen with main character syndrome.

    KnivesandKittens NTA. I had a friend like that about your age. She called me and we hung out when things were not going well for her. I called her just because, but I was her 'when life s ks' person. One morning she called and wanted me to come over cause she had a fight with her BF and was lonely and down. I told her sorry but al friend (that she didn't know)

    and I were going out of town shopping and I would see her tomorrow. She asked me to cancel my plans and I said no... after 5 minutes of "but why?" I told her it was because she only called me when she had no other options, and I wasn't willing to cancel plans I had for weeks just to hear her complain. Now forty plus years later, I still have never heard from her again. You
