My best friend and I haven't talked in more than a month.  I got an email from her a few weeks ago saying something about how she can't get through to my cell. (That's total crap- because I got one of those chain text messages from her) Anywho, yesterday she called called me and acted as if nothing happened.  We have grown apart since I got married (she's still single) and had a child, but that doesn't mean that I can't hangout with her anymore.
 
I guess she and I haven't been talking because of her boyfriend.  I don't exactly like him (there's good reason)  Funny when I talked to her she didn't mention she was making plans to get married.  She saw my dad and told him she was getting married soon.  Should I be hurt?  Should I have expected this?
 
About the boyfriend:
 
First impression:
 
When I met him he was with another girl.  She and I were having an all girls weekend & we happen to see him at the same place we were at.  So, we see him with this girl- he doesn't even acknowledge my best friend.  All he said was "Hi"  He didn't even introduce the girl. The girl part really didn't bother me because they could've just been friends, but why act like my best friend was nothing to him.  That really pissed me off.  So, for the rest of the time she stayed with me there was crying, calling him constantly, wondering why...  He didn't call her for about a week & then made her feel like crap that she was trippin'.  (The girl was an ex-gf, but they're only friend) That what he told her.
 
Forward: 
 
They patch things up and everything seemed pretty cool.  Then she calls me all depressed- it turns out he told her that he will probably be breaking up with her because of his job- there might be a move involved & his hours won't allow them to spend time together, but don't worry about it now it hasn't happened yet.  WHAT!!!!  I have tried to keep my mouth shut for as long as I could, but I let it rip.  I was so upset with her I didn't want to talk about him anymore.  So, he ended up breaking up with her only to give her the possibility of hope & wait for him.  We rarely talked from this point on.  She did call me to tell they got back together & that was the last of it.
 
Currently:
 
I'm speechless.  I want nothing, but the best for her.  I wish her love, happiness all that good stuff that comes about finding someone- he isn't it.

    Word of Advice from someone who's been there, done that.
     
    Stand by and be supportive.  Your friend will never believe you about the bad BF until it's all over.  That's all you can do.
     
    She's having to learn her lesson about guys.

    I agree Uniquely!  My best friend will not believe me until it's over.  When it comes to love she really loses all perspective.  I just wish she could see it through my eyes.  She defends their relationship by telling me that I don't see the "him" when it's just the two of them.  You're right I can only stand by and be supportive and be there for her.  I really hope that it will workout in the end.  I honestly hope that I will be proven wrong.

    Have you by any chance watched The Hills on MTv?
    Reminds me of your situation, a little, but it's a lot different at the same time...if that makes much sense?

    Yeah, I totally feel like The Hills.  I think it's weird that there's a difference between friends.  She's my bestfriend from elementary school- I could get upset with her if we don't talk for awhile.  Yet, I have a childhood friend whom even if we don't talk, when we do it's like we've been talking everyday.  I don't get upset with her.  Why is that?  Is it the different bonds we have?

I'm in over my head. I know it....
I've been quiet here the past few days. I've kind of been feeling low. My positive attitude dulled a bit. I've been hesitant to even write about it. That's always been my first line of defense in the past. I don't like...
Now I remember why I stopped trying to date....
After 20 years of attempting a relationship with my mom, I give up....
