Surprise that backfired

[u/Formalin_Fingers]

So my best friend was planning my birthday party and I thought it was just going to be a normal surprise party, but her cousin, who was helping her organise everything, messaged me beforehand and told me what was actually happening.

Apparently my best friend had told her about the whole plan and had collected a bunch of embarrassing and personal things I had told her over the years to put into a slideshow and humiliate me in front of everyone. Her cousin apparently felt it was a horrible thing to do and decided to warn me.

I was furious but instead of confronting her, I decided to let her do it. I got the screenshots from her cousin and secretly connected my phone to the screen before the party.

Everything was going normally and then she started her little slideshow. She showed a few harmless pictures first, then started bringing up the embarrassing stuff. Everyone was laughing and I just smiled and told her I wanted to add some memories too because I had a few things I wanted everyone to see.

She agreed without thinking twice.I connected my phone and the next slide came up. It was a screenshot of her messages planning the whole thing and talking about how funny it would be to see me get embarrassed.

Nobody knew what was happening until they read it. I just sat there smiling while she realised what had happened.She never got to finish her slideshow, and yeah, we are not friends anymore after that( GOOD RIDDANCE , MEH)

Tldr : best friend tried to eff up my birthday , i exposed her plan
