So I've stopped doing that. It's not easy, but I've stopped.<BR/><BR/>Another thing I've discovered, is that some people are "emotional transferers"...meaning, they don't like dealing with their own emotions and feelings, so they find people (like US) who they KNOW will feel and express their emotions for them.<BR/><BR/>Boy...I know this has to be a tough situation you're going through, being placed in the middle.<BR/><BR/>And like you, I'm not one for giving advice to someone, but I would like to share this with you...<BR/><BR/>...if I knew someone who was betraying someone else, that would be sign to me that they can't be trusted, and if I don't trust someone...then BAM...they're out of my life.<BR/><BR/>That's how <B>strongly</B> I feel about trust.<BR/><BR/>You're a wise lady, Anndi...so follow your gut feelings, and trust them.<BR/><BR/>Love ya!<BR/>XRonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15977027331657615697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579217219896241812.post-22146043959425494792009-03-25T19:07:00.000-04:002009-03-25T19:07:00.000-04:00Cookies, part of being my friend is knowing that I...Cookies, part of being my friend is knowing that I'll listen when I'm needed. I have no problems doing that. It's just that she should have refrained from telling me who the other party was. She was in a very bad place, like I said, the "thing" was a biggie. Now I just feel bad that I have a friend I know is hurting but my approaching her would only make things worse.<BR/><BR/>Kate, sometimes we have to stand up for the people we love. If the "out of line" person really is a friend, it'll hopefully work itself out. **hugs**<BR/><BR/>Lisa, she's not dealing very well with the situation they both went through... I think if that can be addressed she'll see past herself and understand the hurt she caused. I hope. It takes a lot for me to walk away from a good friend. Loyalty is important to me. She's usually a good friend, I just think she's in too much pain to see clearly at the moment.<BR/><BR/>Akelamalu, as I've said, she's always been a very good friend but she's in a very bad place right now. I did explain to her that I wasn't going to take sides and that she should stop talking about this to more people. *sigh*<BR/><BR/>Charles, thank you my friend. You took the time to "listen" and that helped.<BR/><BR/>Gary, yup, it happened. I've even caught someone trolling the interwebz and dating services behind my back. Hey, even Jennifer Anniston was cheated on. ;) Thanks.<BR/><BR/>Turnbaby, SMOOCH!<BR/><BR/>Travis Erwin, I can't say anything to my heartbroken friend without aggravating the situation so I'm going to concentrate on one friend and hope I can get it through her thick bullheaded skull that she needs to fix this. Knowing my other friend (because she's a lot like me) she just wants to know that a mistake, an error in judgement, was made and there truly is repentance.<BR/><BR/>Kay, yes... we all do dumbass things. That's precisely why I won't referee but I will focus on the pain that caused the "betrayal" and helping her understand that despite how sad she was, it wasn't ok to do what she did. I hope it can be salvaged, they've known each other for too long to throw it all away.Anndihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08703154815958841195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579217219896241812.post-62761687718248976922009-03-25T18:26:00.000-04:002009-03-25T18:26:00.000-04:00Anndi, I feel for you.

I hope you were able to tell Cryer that you resented being put into this position. And I sincerely hope that you are able to salvage the relationship. I think bowing out of the referee role is a must, obviously you don’t want to do that. Cryer should understand that… I hope she does.<BR/><BR/>--hugs--Kaylia Metcalfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12527164450365029203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579217219896241812.post-39534950167253944142009-03-25T17:11:00.000-04:002009-03-25T17:11:00.000-04:00The entire situation sucks.

I do know she came to me out of a very bad place and it would have been ok if she had kept the secret part to herself and just told me about the fight. I would never tell someone to end a friendship so I'm trying to be very careful about the advice I give. In many cases I just listen as people figure it out themselves... I'm just afraid Cryer may end up self destructing if I don't do something.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for taking the time to read and reply.
