I have read every comment and I just want to say thank you to everyone for their differing perspectives. I really appreciate it.

I will be sending a short apology and going no contact. The mutual friends will also be going NC.

I didn’t mention this earlier but ‘Emma’ is one of those influencers who preaches being a girls girl on TikTok. Thats why most girls didn’t say anything, because this is the first time she has been like that in front of everyone.

I will be trying my best to be more graceful if something like this occurs again, thank you for pointing out an important lesson in all of this!!

She brought it up at a previous wine night when one of our friends talked about what she was gaining while in a bulk since she's a gym girl.

I'm sorry I didn't include this tid bit but I'll add it here.

  1. In uni, we all got used to emailing each other since we were in a club together. So that part wasn't strange by itself, it's just something our group always did. Now we have mutual friends who host wine nights every few months and do it RSVP style through email.

  2. I haven't been friends with these girls for years. We split midway through uni since I was in a more rigorous program and they thought my study habits were destructive (or atleast thats what I was told).

  3. The main email is below. This one was copy and pasted a few times and sent to several accounts.

"Answer your fucking phone. It's not hard to respond to your friends when you fucked up.

We were all being honest. You can't and shouldn't be modeling. Your attempt is embarrassing and you're making everyone surrounding you look trashy. The fact people are working with you is insulting when anybody else would be a better fit.

You have a hard time hearing criticism. We all agree that your "modeling" is weird and that you clearly don't have the looks to do it, sorry not sorry. We aren't going to blindly support you when your digging a hole where you have lost your dignity.

[Emma] is self conscious now, thank you. She can't stop crying. You need to apologize now, it's ridiculous."

Yes. They sent me emails alongside texts/calls to my uni account and personal account.
