My best friend broke up with her boyfriend because he was cheating on her. For weeks she cried on my shoulder, every day at all times of the day and night. Some of the calls were after midnight, so I was tired the next morning when I went to work. I work 12 hours a day 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. As a friend I listened to her and tried my best to help her through it.
They dated for 6 months, and she thought he was the “one.” Another friend told her about his affairs and they ended up breaking up on Facebook. “He’s no good for me,” she would tell me over and over again. The more she talked about it the more she said she never wanted to see him again.
I decided to have a party to help cheer her up. It was a singles party where each guest had to bring another single person. She seemed OK with the party and we both thought it would be nice if she met some new guy friends.
The night of the party, she came barging through the door with none other than her ex-boyfriend. I was so pissed. All that he had put her through and there she was hanging all over him. They got back together again and within the month he cheated on her again.
She wants to cry on my shoulder again. I want to be a friend, but I really don’t want to hear it or be around her. She’s pissed off at me saying I’m a bad and selfish friend. At this point I don’t care. You can be a fool once, but the laughs on you if you’re a fool twice.
