This book is proof that Dumbledore intervened to make Lily Evans distrust Snape, who was the friend she is referring to. Snape whose entire existence is based upon his love for Lily had it taken away from him by Dumbledore. Quite a terrible secret indeed, but until you know that you think that Dumbledore just snuck into the girl’s dorms to mess with their mind.
Where are you getting this? What makes you think he intervened to make her distrust Snape, and why do you think that’s the reason things didn’t work out with Snape and Lily? I don’t see this from the chapter.
Also, what’s the deal with Fawkes and the evil parents and him running away?
Dumbledore said the textbook contains a terrible secret. Telling a teenager how to make her sister magically pretty in a dangerous way is bad, but is it terrible?
So there’s this theory that the terrible secret is that Dumbledore screwed Snape. You think that’s wrong, but do you have an alternate suggestion for a terrible secret that has already been shown to the readers other than the Pretty, Pretty Potion of Doom?
I figured it was just Dumbledore fucking with Harry because he’s crazy, like when he told Harry to carry the rock with him, or when he said Fawkes was a chicken.
I don’t understand why the writing in the book would have worked to screw Snape. How could anyone guess that it would have that effect.

I see you already replied to the post that explains this position.
