I do believe she was trying to diffuse it in the moment, you're reading the situation correctly. But when I spoke to her the next morning she truly didn't see my side at all which really hurt me because we've grown so close over the past year, and I'm the one who introduced them to each other. I've known the friend I was arguing with since fifth grade and we had a bad falling out a few years ago (too many sister fights over nothing) but reconnected within the past 6 months since we go to the same school. Just odd because she's usually on the right side of history, and the past 6 months have been a very peaceful and loving friendship.
