She started spreading rumors about me after that.
Why has she been spreading rumors about you?
She must be crazy. She was always very abusive and was doing things like this that never made sense to me.
You should confront her about these rumors. It's not okay to let someone talk badly about you to everyone or they might think it's true. you should be careful if you think she is dangerous.
She started bullying me first and I just wanted to defend myself, so I bullied her back. I'm not okay with getting pushed around like that.
It is good to stand up for yourself but it is wrong to bully others. If you are having problems it might be good to tell someone else what is going on.
