So my friend misunderstood my words ( I was trying to something about a situation but she didn't listen to the whole thing and took it in a wrong way) and screamed at me in public (at my school) and stormed off angrily ON MY BIRTHDAY! She apologized 2 days later and I said that I accept her apology but didn't want to be friends with her anymore. We used to talk everyday and now we just.. don't (this event took place 3 days ago by the way). I felt like her behavior was toxic and it was not even a big deal and she didn't even listen to me properly. Am I being too hard on her by cutting off our friendship or is it the right thing to do? Thank you soo much for reading. Please give ur opinion
No, I don't think you're being too harsh at all. That's really not okay what your friend did - yelling at you and storming off on your birthday over something she didn't even fully understand? That's super disrespectful and immature.
Like you said, it wasn't even a big deal in the first place. But for her to completely fly off the handle and embarrass you in public like that, especially on YOUR special day, is just wrong. A real friend would at least hear you out and try to see both sides before getting that angry.
You don't need that kind of toxic drama and behavior in your life. Cutting her off was honestly the smart thing to do. I know it probably hurts since you were so close, but do you really want to keep trying to be friends with someone who treats you like that? She clearly doesn't respect your feelings if she's willing to blow up over nothing.
You deserve people around you who will listen without judgment, support you on your birthday, and handle disagreements calmly like adults. Her "apology" obviously doesn't take back how she made you feel. Stick to your decision - don't settle for anything less than real respect from your friends. You'll be a lot happier without that kind of negativity bringing you down!

Yes she was wrong, you did the right thing, however did she say why she lost it and gave you shit? Possibly she had a reason.
She was being toxic. You did the right thing.
