[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sound kind, OP. I don’t know what I’d do in your shoes. I’ve been in her shoes in a way and I’m not sure whether I’d want a not-as-close person to reach out to me. If they did I’d just respond with a “thanks” and would definitely not get into it at all.

Op again. I'm sorry you've been there. I definitely can see how it could feel jarring or uninvited.[/quote]

NP and I have to share my separation with a not-close friend for logistics reasons. But the legal and financial side were and are still extraordinarily complicated. Just keeping things going for my kids was all I could handle- thinking about how the rest might come together was crushing. So when that friend followed up multiple times, it felt prying and burdensome. There wasn’t any way that she could help and my life had already been splayed open by lawyers, our financial advisor, family members, etc., so I didn’t really have the energy to make someone feel like they were helpful.
