I was once "dumped" like that friend of yours... And if she is a smart person, this should help her.... Should make her re-think a lot of things and how she acts and interacts with people... you did the right thing...that's for sure... You may cause a kick in the ass the girl needed for a long time already and that's best thing to happen to her. Cheers Hey,

I think God puts them into our lives to grow us for some reason or another. The best thing we can do is stay detached, and set up boundaries. I'm a christian person, and I always feel a need to help people, but I have to remain wise in the process. Don't let someone take you down, or endanger you or your life. I'm praying for you, and I hope you arrive to the right decision over this and future toxic friendships, I do think their will be more to come, some people really need to get professional help. I wouldn't be afraid to tell them that either. Hope I could help as do the many others that commented. Good luck! I have, and had friends like that, and will probably still seem to make more!

It always sucks telling the truth but who knows. Maybe in some way she will see what you are talking about. Maybe she may even grow up in the process. Keep your head up!

It's not our job to save people that like to roll around in misery or aren't ready for self change. i have done this before and am in the process of doing it again. you must do it. i’m a people pleaser but i realized that I hurt my OTHER good relatiionships by continuing to be around yucky people.

It's so hard when you care about someone and you want to help her, but there's really nothing you can do, and being around that kind of negative behavior really rubs off on you and brings you down as well. You did the right thing, even if you feel guilty. Good luck! I’ve been there before.

Some people just can't get out of their own way sometimes. Perhaps your actions can make a difference in her life and cause her to assess her situation. You did the right thing.
