I can't with my best friend right now. I really fucking can't
My best friend has been trying for a baby for 6 years. I don't want kids. I dislike kids. I'm not mean to them, but the thought of having my own makes me sick. My best friend was wanting to celebrate her birthday. I couldn't go because my boyfriend has respiratory issues and I'm not gonna risk going out to a club and getting covid and passing it off to him. That would be awful. Her sister is 19. My best friend and her other two friends snuck her in to an 21+ club. I get a call from her little sister saying they all just left her there and she can't get home. I used to babysit her sister before me and my best friend were even friends so she's like a little sister to me so I agree to go get her. I go there but I can't find her anywhere. I called her and called her but she wouldn't answer. I got out and asked a security guard outside if he had seen her and he said she left with a guy. She has another best friend who is a guy. I used to babysit him to so I assumed thats who she went with because I was taking too long. I'm just gonna skip everything that happened in-between but she tells everyone a few days later, she saw a guy she had known from college. Not the guy best friend I mentioned. And he agreed to give her a ride and he drove to a park instead and raped her in the car. She was scared for a few days to say something. We called the police and he has been arrested. My best friend didn't even apologize for leaving her there at that club. She just said she didn't feel well and she couldn't find her sister so she and the girls just left. I would never do that to anyone. Even when I went out with my guy friends before covid there was no way in hell I was leaving them behind. It's been a little over a month and I had conversations with my besties little sister and she was doing okay and in therapy. Well my best friend called me bawling her eyes out saying her sister was pregnant. I asked by who and it could only be the guy that raped. My best friend was pissed off because she's wanted a baby for so long. In my head I said "Okay, yeah, make your sisters rape about you." But I didn't say that out loud. I had talked to her sister and she thought about getting an abortion, but now she's planning on keeping it, which is her choice. Ever since she decided to keep it my best friend has been so hateful to her. Telling her she doesn't deserve that baby. That she'sstupid. Even told her she lied about being raped and just wanted to get pregnant before her. Look, I know there are a lot if women on here TTC and have been trying conceive for years and I'm not trying to hurt any of you, but honestly my best friend needs to stfu and get out of her feelings. She can go be mad in private, but to just be hateful to her sister who got raped by a guy at a club SHE left her at, she needs to grow tf up and be there for her little sister. I don't even listen to her complain. I ignore that shit. I may have never dealt with infertility, but I've been raped so I sympathize a lot more with her sister than I do her. Her sis is going through so much and needs support. Not being told she lied about being raped. I'm not trying to be a shitty friend, but I'm not gonna listen to my friend moan and groan about how terrible her baby sister is for getting impregnated by rape.
Edit: I know a lot of you are saying drop her as a friend and I probably am. Our friendship has been on and off for years, but regardless of what happens between me and her, I will always be there for her little sister. I even told her little sister years ago it doesn't matter what happens between me and so and so, I will always be there for you. I babysat this girl. I watched her grow up. I won't turn my back on her just because me and her sisters' friendship ends.
