Feeling kinda weird about this. . .(sort of vent)

 I just found out (on FB, of course) that my former best friend is pregnant. Normally I would be so happy for her and really involved, but we are just not in that place anymore. We were BFF since 7th grade through after college. When I divorced my 1st husband, ex-H used BFF and her DH as his confidantes, effectively estranging us (that's what kind of stuff he would do; he also complained to my grandma about me!) A few years later we got together once or twice, and sort of patched things up, but when I invited her to my baby shower with DS, she didn't even RSVP, phone, email, anything.

That's the last time I tried to contact her.  . . It just makes me kind of sad that we were SO close for so long and now just not, and I'm not even entirely sure why. It's not like I don't have plenty of other close friends, it's just a weird situation.

I can dig that.... My serious BF of 3 years "took my friends in the divorce" as it were.... I broke up with him, and he spread some pretty nasty lies about me...caused all my good (and very close) friends to take his side, which left me with my one girlfriend.

FB does wonders about patching up lost connections, but that is a bit of an akward situation.
