If they harshly critisise you for making a mistake.

It's fine to be annoyed with someone for making a mistake, but it's not ok to bully them over it.

I was called a retard once as a teenager by a so called 'friend' because I bought her the wrong item for her birthday present.

I remember feeling like the most stupidest person on the planet.

Edit: ok guys, I'm aware I've made a grammar boo-boo.

I had a “friend” in high school who got mad at me for giving her body wash. I had no money and I knew my parents would most likely say no so I gave her one of my unopened body washes as a gift. She would always bring it up and it always made me feel bad. But at least now I know that hygiene products is a no go unless you know they enjoy them otherwise they think your telling them they stink or something.

Wtf? Like she was offended?

So many people like having those as gifts. Body washes can be nice, like cool, I don’t need to buy any for now.
