[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She has become so rude and nasty, not just to me but EVERYONE. It seems like anything and everything annoys her. This is my very good friend from childhood. She was my bridesmaid, helped throw my baby shower and was always one of my closest friends for decades. We celebrated our 40th birthdays earlier this year. Friend got married last year and all she talked about was how much they can’t wait to start a family. It isn’t happening for her. I have tried to be supportive. After months and now second year of not getting pregnant, she is just an awful human being to be around and talk to.

Do I just take the abuse from her? Can I say something?
Distance myself?

I basically listened to her insult me and everyone we know for 2 hours the last time I saw her. I didn’t mention my kids. T[b]he only one thing she said positive was how much she loves her husband and how they are remaining positive. I could tell she was fighting back tears.[/b] Then she started complaining about food and service. Couldn’t wait to get out of there. She has called and texted a few times.[/quote]

Sounds like you want her to say something positive and enjoy her time with you. That's just not where she is, though. I wonder if you can separate your needs from hers.
