Help! My Friend Keeps Saying I Must've Accidentally "Donated" My Clothes. Uh, No She Stole Them.
Briefly

It's distressing to realize that a friend you trust could lie and manipulate you over something so seemingly trivial, yet deeply personal. Trust is fundamental in friendship, and when it erodes, such betrayal leads to feelings of violation and confusion. Your friend's actions have breached that trust, and confronting her may be necessary, not just for closure, but to reclaim your sense of security and self-respect.
Avoiding this friend may seem like a protective strategy, but it also creates a wall between you and the possibility of resolution. Addressing the theft directly offers a chance to either restore the friendship or formally end it. You deserve to express your feelings about the trust that has been broken, rather than continuing to let the situation simmer.
