Parenting after a Loss

NBR: Fark you, former BFF...

Apparently, that second "F" is a lie.

I just need to rant and since its late, nobody will read this, so that's good. 

This girl has been a total beeyotch since I got married and even more so since I had Leo. She acts like her life is so exciting and important (she is single, ridiculously promiscuous, lives in NYC and makes a crapload of money - basically fancies herself a character from SATC) and mine is insignificant and boring. But what kills me is she pretends we are still close, even though we totally aren't - I will call her like 10 times before she gets back to me. I think we've talked once in the past 4 months. 

Lately, she has been traveling all over the place and never tells me, even when its places I would totally meet her. Thanks to Facebook, I find out about this, since she does status updates every 2 minutes (most of which are about what drink is in her hand at the moment). This weekend she was in Boston. Well, so was I - and she KNEW this. Last time we talked I told her and she got all weird when I told her which week it was. Apparently, this was why.

I am just done. Done with her drama, done with her being a friend when it's convenient for her. Screw it. I hate toxic people. It's sad as she was my best friend for like over 10 years, but I guess people change, huh?

  • I say good riddance as well.

    I have a friend who I haven't really talked to or seen since my wedding. She was really good friends with my sister and me for about 13 years before Jenny(sister) and I got married the same year. Since then, neither of us have heard nary a peep out of her. Well, we saw her once for lunch and all she talked about was herself. She avoided all conversation about our husbands and our pregnancies. She also promised me she would come to my shower and then never showed. She did the same thing with the joint baptism we had for the boys. She also ignored the message we sent her about B being born but then randomly sent me a text wishing me a happy birthday(a week after my birthday). She never mentioned B in the text message at all. It really pisses me off just thinking about it. It's really upsetting and sad when you're friends with someone for so long and then they just drop off the face of the earth.

    Sorry that your vent turned into mine :/

  • goodbye old BFF, hello new BFF (me). :)
  • I have no time for drama friends.  I think you need to suck it up and let it go...and you know what...probably underneath her SATC attitude, she is probably jealous that you are settled with baby.

  • UGH.....I'm sorry.  You have to do what's best for you.  A friend I have known since grade school and I have drifted apart.  We just have different lives and its hard to keep up.
  • You did the right thing and you have us.  Big Smile

    Ditto! I am with you, I have no room for toxic friendships in my life.  Life it too short for people to bring us down.

  • She's the one who should feel bad, losing a good friend like you!  And ditto to ncsu, you have us!! :)  
  • That sucks Suzie. You're right, you don't need a friend like that. I ended a toxic friendship a few years ago and it was such a good thing for me. It's just not healthy to have people like that in your life. It felt like a relief once it was done.

  • Something similar happened to me too, and I currently do not have a BFF.  From everyone's posts, looks like a lot of us have had this happen.  Honestly, you're better off without her in the long run.
