So I had a very best friend that was like a sister to me. Her and I were unseperable. She was there all through my pregnancy. She was the one who drove me to the hospital when I was in labor. She was over all the time. She loved my son and said her future daughter was going to marry him. Now that my son is 7 months old she wants nothing to do with me. She's always making excuses not to hang out with me. All she wants to do anymore is hang out with her controlling boyfriend who doesnt like me hanging out with her. (she's in denyal about him being controlling) WHAT DO I DO?? I'm going nuts without a girl I can talk to....

I totally agree. I feel isolated sometimes. Like my friends have left and I have no girls to talk to... Feel free to email me TheColdrens@yahoo.com :)

I guess I am not alone either because I have lost my friends as well and its hard not having a girl to talk to. The dad is in the picture and everything but we all need girl time and I don't have that anymore.

Kind of off topic: Katie, that isn't controlling, its abusive! He should trust her to be where she says she is and not make her prove it. He should certainly not tell her who she can and can't see! No one has the right to have that much control over someone, he's wrong and she should leave before she gets hurt.

I really understand you. I am a pregnant teen and i had a best friend, just as close as you and yours was. As soon as i told her i was preggy she dumped me completely. Not only that i lost a lot more close friends because she thought it was good to turn everyone against me. Well i kept one good friend and we have got really close and i love Heather Mcwilliam to pieces. That is what you call a good friend. Things do work out i the end. Seriously xx

I mean I've talked to her over and over saying it isnt normal or healthy that she has to take pictures of where she is to prove she is where she says she is. She just wont believe me. I think because I've pointed this out to her its turned her against me in a way because im the one against her relationship.

I lost most of my friends as well. If you think the reason that she wont see you is because of her boyfriend then sit down and have a serious talk to her about it. Get someone to look after bub while you do it as well. I was in a very bad relationship for a few years with a guy who wouldnt let me see anyone and I didnt realise it wasnt normal until one of my friends gave me a good talk. If she wont listen then I recommend talking to her parents as well. I dont meen to be rude, but this is her problem that she needs your help with

I know exactly how you feel. Quite a few of my friends dissed me b/c I got pregnant but I always look at what I have and I wouldn't change it for the world :)
I know she was a close friend but it doesn't mean she can ditch you just b/c you have a child. She will need you before you need her.

i know exactly how you feel, i lost alot of friends because i had my daughter. but you just have to look at the bright side that youll always have your family there, and friends can come and go... i know how it feels to have an extremely close friend just stop talking to you because of the boyfriend. you can talk to me! hahaha
