Real Friends

My friend (we'll call her Rebekah) just came out of a bad relationship. Reader's Digest version: He was manipulative, controlling, and a candyass pansie. Because of this, she practically alienated her family and most of her friends (she couldn't get rid of me if she wanted to)--he wanted to know if she would give up her family, friends, and grad school for him. Much as I tried, I could not convince her of his mind-game-playing ways. I don't blame her, I did the same thing when she tried to warn me about my ex.

Now her self-worth is close to zero. Her other friends don't want to hang out because they feel like she was ignored them while she was with him. Yeah, it pissed me off that she ignored me while she was with him, but I also knew it would end badly and that she would be in desperate need of a friend when it did.

Beside, she did the same for me.
