Hya honey it's a hard one I've been in yor position many times in the past where supposed friends have walked all over me. Now it all depends how much u value yor friendship with her because now I know true friends would not put on u thy would understand yor situation. Wot I personally dos in the end aft trying to explain for a long time how Ill I was and them still doin it to me is I cut all contact I was fortunate that they didn't live to close to me but I stopped answering the phone or the door to them unfortunately sum times u have to if a) thy don't listen b) don't care enough to consider how u feel and c) just want to use u for thyre own gain honey but thts my best advice to u shel get the message eventually chic. If yor wanting to protect yor friendship honey u could down load info on fibro for her to read if she doesn't understand how hard this illness is or sit her down and fully explain yor limitations. By sounds of it uve had enough thts why I sed to just ignor her honey but I wish u luck in helpin yourself honey hope this helps hugs xx
I've had to let toxic friends and 'frienemies' go and it's not easy, some just don't get it and as much as I miss the good times and fun, my health was more important.
Your health should be your first priority, with no apologies. This girl having her ninth child needs professional help and her children need and deserve better. God bless you and them. Stay strong. Hugs :-)
Fibromyelgia pain is so overwhelming &to deal with ignorance is going to cause u more pain.I've lost many so called friends over the years because everyone is so selfish to their own needs.There will be a time when you won't be able to take it anymore&you'll realize that sometimes we just have to stick up for ourselves before we go insane.
She can only use u if u let her. She is not a friend and u r not a rug to be walked on. Think would she be there in the middle of the night for me? If the answer is no, then u know what to do.
My goodness, I would have called 911 and let the pros handle it. Get a restraining order if necessary. She needs serious help and you need peace and quiet!
