More details, more ideas, more questions:
We are in the same circle of friends. On Friday, after I found out about everything, two of his friends were hanging out at my dorm with my room mates. When I walked in, they immediately started to casually harass me (oh here comes the pimp daddy, we should learn how to get with women like him etc etc).
I can see that if I cut things off from this group of friends entirely, I will be very vulnerable to further harassment. When I was in highschool, I had other crappy relationships with people. One of these people eventually pushed me to a point where I cut things off entirely. After that, I started getting bullied by these people, which made my life unbearable.
So of course I'm worried the same exact thing will happen to me now that I'm in college. My plan right now is to make up with this friend of mine to prevent any sort of retaliation from him and/or his friends, cut out any existing hostility, and slowly and subtley dissassociate myself from this circle of friends. Saying I'm busy when they go out, avoiding situations where they are around, nurturing my relationships with the good people from this circle, and finding new friendships.
Thoughts?
