I've been there. I took it seriously and acted as such. Now she hates me for "ruining her life" or some such crap.

Risk losing that friend to death by not taking things seriously, or risk losing them because "OMG YOU RUINED EVERYTHINGGGGGGGGG" or risk losing them because they're just "testing to see if you really care" and you do nothing. No matter which way you go, something bad can happen. It's up to you to decide what you can live with. It looks like you actually got off lucky. She still exists, she's still on speaking terms with you, you're just a little pissed at yourself for being "decieved." That's a personal issue, though, which has nothing to do with her issues, both of which need to be dealt with (but dealt with seperately).

In relation to your issues, just consider this - if you hadn't believed it, and she'd wound up dead somewhere, how would you feel then?

Much worse.
This was apparently a prank though... so it still sucks anyways.

A continuation of my last little thread heh...

Apparently... one of my friends decided "why not, let's act as if I'm going to suicide"... so they tell me... I get scared as hell cause they never said that before... So, they mess with me, telling me fake crap. Then not telling me a straight answer when they went offline... So... I tell her close friend, she calls her parents... Turns out the whole crap was a fkin HOAX...

So now, I feel like sh!t for believing in this crap. Total sh!t... I'm glad it was a lie, but she crossed the line on what to lie about...

Any suggestions?

report her, if you have convo's save them, voice mails etc. Tell the authorities you're worried about her....the state won't listen to 'just kidding'

If she's really in trouble, she needs it, and if she's just attention whoring, oh, she'll get hers...
