(Off topic, but anyone have any fun date ideas?)

I’ve always wanted to go to Home Depot and pick out colors ❤️

idk it’s stupid lol

No it's not
I highkey wanna do that now lol

That sounds like a fun artist thing to do actually… not necessarily as a date, but I can imagine my roommate and me going out for real friend hours lmao

If you live with them, it'd definitely be a super fun time!

Nah, I’m not dating my roommate lol. They’re two different people. But my roommate and I do hang out a good bit since we’re good friends.
Also I just found a local arcade, so that sounds fun

Arcades are cool!

I’ve never been to an arcade either. And I mean, while dates are fun, they aren’t necessary to relationships.
(Update: this clown has just dubbed this a “gamer date”)

I feel like I need to cut ties with my friend, but I kind of don't want to, help.

I can try to help. I've been there too. What's up and why do you want to cut ties? And what's keeping you from doing so?

Okay, so, this friend of mine. I'm better sure she's abusive, like hella abusive. She insists on insulting people(including me) and even went as far as hitting someone with a jump rope (almost as if whipping) for stealing the tiniest thing as pencils, just pencils. And despite this, I don't want to lose her. Because we still laugh together and she even said that she was thankful for me. Also, she's one of the only friends I have and I don't want to cry at night about having no friends again. I have no idea what I should do.

Dump her.
It’s hard. It hurts. I’ve been in a similar but more emotionally harmful situation. She’s someone you have memories with. You rely on her. But she’s not a healthy person to be around. She’s hurting you and that’s not okay. And she’s probably not going to change her behavior. So you need to let her go, for your own sake. She’s not a true friend if she’s hurting you. That’s not something that’s okay for her to do.
You say she’s abusive. You say she’s hella abusive. She’s not a healthy person to be around. For your sake, you need to let her go.

I'll try my best…

Yeah, I agree with everyone else on this one. No matter how good of friends you feel like you've been, that doesn't matter if the friendship is bringing you pain and is also a generally negative influence.

But, what if she's not trying to hurt me? What if it's just a light-hearted joke? That's gotta be it, right?

I know what I'll do. I'll confront her about her actions and then I'll make a final decision. Thanks for the help, y'all!

Good luck!
(If she does it enough for you to recognize it as abuse, it’s probably not an accident. Even if it is, she still shouldn’t)

I think that's a good decision, Nie. Even if it is a joke, it's still hurting people, and it's possible your friend doesn't realize it (although I hate to break it to you, but it's more than likely intentional). If she makes an active effort to change, it might be worth preserving the friendship, at least for now, but if not, it's probably time to end things.
