Recently, I had a falling out with a friend which was two weeks ago. All we did was yell at each other through Facebook. I decided to end the relationship two weeks ago because that relationship went nowhere. So I told her that enough was enough, and she got mad at me. So I got mad back and said things that I should not have said.

A week and a half later, she saw what I said and attacked me with an even nastier message. It had also happened that a copy of facebook messages go right to my e-mail. So I planned on sending an e-mail to another friend who has been a big help. However, I by accidentally sent it to my aunt which was on Friday.

Well, today, we both found out what happened and she was angry with me, which often happens if I do something like that. She also found out about the fight online and told me that I lied to her. She then called me stupid and that I never learn from my mistakes.

Because of this mistake, I am crying my eyes out about it.

What do I do? How do I handle my aunt's outbursts?

I do not understand the attraction to social networking sites. This is part of the reason why. The whole concept is a complete mystery to me.

I do not know what to tell you, and since I am the 109th person to read this post but the first to reply, I'd guess that a lot of people don't know what to tell you. I'm not even completely sure I understand how things got so totally out of control.

it can be a benefit to those with AS if you know how to utilize it properly and watch what you do. it's certainly helped me anyways since i'm better at communicating through written words and have access via myspace to potentially most of the local population not to mention the world at large through it. i added alot of people from school on there, random people my age from the surrounding area. it's a good way to practice what's acceptable to say to certain people. i socialize with NTs fairly ok on there and have even made a few NT friends that way which have turned into pretty good friends in real life too.

plus it makes it easier to keep track of people. it's a bit more visual and option-friendly than e-mail or IM.

If she were a friend, she would not be attacking you like that as you described......She committed an act of war by attacking you...delete her from your list...in fact, block her if you feel you must.She is an enemy.Either she make ammends, or she is blocked.That is one message you can send loud and clear and it can't be accidentally picked up by buttinski aunts


As far as your aunt goes, she has no business attacking you for what has happened.Tell her to butt out or if you dont have the will to do so, ignore her.If you live on your own, you can completely cut her out of your life.I know this all sounds harsh, but sometimes actions speak louder than any words.
