tell them exactly what he said to me, what he said about me, that he physically assaulted and slandered my best friend.

Either get away from the situation & find new friends or take the time to consider that YOU may have actually been the issue.

I never want anyone to make someone feel bad & when it's happened I set things right and then banish bullies and enablers

Reevaluate said "friendship". Friends won't dismiss your discomfort. Still, it is ultimately up to you to not give it power.

you tell your friends that you don't want to be around this abusive person. My daughter had the same problem. Honesty worked.

sucks when 2 faced people are part of your group of friends. Call this person out. Don't let them make YOU uncomfortable :)

High tail it out of there. Dismissing your discomfort only adds to it, as I'm sure you're aware. Have a trusted pal with you.

Let the event creator and said friends know as much as you're comfortable telling them?
