Title: Am I genuinely hurt, or am I playing the victim in a misunderstanding with my best friend?

I need honest opinions on a situation with my best friend. Please don't automatically take my side just because I'm the one telling the story. I genuinely want to understand both perspectives and know if I'm failing to…
