Best friend vent

I get that my best friend feels left behind due toher never having had a bf, hubby, or baby. BUT, I'm trying to help her not feel that way. I invite her, just the 2 of us, to do non baby related things. She always comes up with an excuse. I told her I'd help her with her college math saturday (she asked me for my help)Never heard from her, probably bc she was hanging out with some guy she met online (total loser btw). Ok, here's the point. She called during my show and I sent it to voicemail(it was secret life, come on) and now she is upset. Normally I'm not this insensitive to her feelings, but I don't feel llike I should be expected to just sit here and wait for her to need something from me. Again, I'm sorry to anyone that took the time to read this. If you did, please let me know if I'm wrong.

    I'm sorry you're dealing with this. I have come to accept that some friends will grow with you no matter where your life heads and others only stay by you if they can relate with you. There is nothing wrong with that. I let them go - no hard feelings. Besides, life has a way of introducing us to new friends along the way. It may be another new mother or the wife of your husband's friend.

    Some friends that had drifted from me are now very good friends of mine. Give your friend some time and some space. She may come around.

  • She's mad because you didn't answer the phone?  What is this, middle school?  I would take a step back from her for a good while.  I can't stand drama and immaturity  when it comes to stuff like this.  I have bettter things to do.  She sounds like a real gem.  May I ask how old she is?
  • Shes 24, only a yr younger than me. I know there is major family issues going on that stress her out, but I really don't see that as an excuse to be a baby. We've all had family issues. I support her, but I don't have the strength, or patience at the moment for elementary crap, be it bc I'm mean, pregnant, whatever. As I said before I'm not usually this I don't know, irritated, towards her. This is just something that topped my crappy monday sundae off.

  • I feel your pain. My best friend (been best friends since we were 6 - we're 24 now) hardly ever wants to be around me now that I'm pregnant. She admitted to me that she is jealous and thinks that my priorities will change once I have the baby. Well, of course they will, but we're supposed to be best friends - no matter what. We used to get together almost every weekend and now we haven't hung out at all except to help her move some furniture she bought last week; and that was only because she needed my husband's truck.

    Anyways - sorry so long - my point was...it's a big adjustment for friends when they're not at the same point in their lives. It'll hopefully get better...
