Unfortunate Beginnings

I'm lucky to have the most amazing, kind and gorgeous boyfriend in the world. And when our relationship started, I never thought that something like this could unearth itself. To my knowledge, J had no secrets he kept from me. But after friends began to learn of my relationship I started to hear stories about a previous 'girlfriend' (I quotation this as I later found this to not be the case). This girl just so happened to be my bestfriend's close friend and was fast becoming my friend also. I was warned not to stay with him because of this supposedly bad past. After a period of a few weeks it finally got to me so I confronted J and asked to hear about this girl, A. He explained everything to me. A was a very confident person, overconfident in fact, and at the age of 14 messaged J,18 at the time, on facebook. J not knowing her age quite happily talked to her as a friend because they were at the same school. But A was wanting more, she saw their conversations as much more than J did. She began talking as if they were a couple, even though they had barely even passed each other in the halls at school. J then found out her age and wanted nothing to do with her, but she told him she loved him to try and keep him talking. J avoided her as much as he could at school, he was teased about talking to a young girl, but he never felt for her that way. But A is crazy, she began threatening to kill herself to keep him, so J said he loved her back, out of fear. He then came up with a lie to get rid of her, he told her that his parents had found out about her age so they couldn't be together, when he never loved her in the first place. But he handled the situation badly, and she said she'd wait until she was 16 and then they could be together. And even though he had now got rid of her A didn't give up, she texted him so he changed his number. Just a few months before A turned 16, J met me. This also was around the same time me and A became friends. But after she found out about us, I think the situation turned into 'keep your friends close and your enemies closer', because she wasn't really my friend. We had a sleepover, we were having fun and getting on, I at this point had no clue about J's past with A. But as we were sitting side by side, I was texting J and without me knowing so was she, trying to get a response out of him. I didn't find this out until months later. She tried to contact him for moths, so I decided it was time to tell her the truth. I told her that J never loved her, and that they never had a relationship, it was all in her head and that he wanted nothing to do with her, everyone thinks shes crazy. She didnt take it well,after that she hated me. But still tried to make digs at our relationship. Now, I do not notice her existence. She is the one person that I truly hate. But through all of her drama and insanity, i'm 2 and a half years down the line of my extremely happy relationship.
