My Entitled Abusive Best Friend Demands I Break Up With My Fiancée Because She Doesn't Like Him, ...

[@RepellentJeff]

OP works with Anna, right? She needs to go to HR *_YESTERDAY._*

[@classicrockkid345]

Every time I hear people say "You could've handled it better" I really want them to explain how exactly you could handle a situation better.

[@mzmindmybizness]

When they say that to me I ask them the same question, and tell them I want specific details so I can do it next time. People need to realize in certain cases there is no right and wrong way to handle things.

[@h2electricboogaloo557]

I just say, “I think I handled it just fine, thank you very much”.

S1: What a shallow, selfish, virtue-signalling fraud of a friend Anna turned out to be. Part of me would want to crash Anna’s social media party and shame her online, but in the cold light of day she simply isn’t worth the added stress. Good luck to the OP, however.

[@nightmarefanatic1819]

Naw, I'd out her. She likes people being exposed online, she'd love me making my own video where I explain how her clout chasing ruined my life.

Story 2: I hate Reddit sometimes 2 fully grown adults getting married “Oh no that’s weird!” Tf?

[@mickcameron821]

Oh they're rife with it. It just stems from a pathetic mindset of: Your life long mate exist in this age bracket and nowhere else. And if you find it above or below 5 years then you are a criminal.

11:25 Second Story: Why do I get a feeling the abusive friend has feelings for OP?

[@SnowyWolborg]

I think it's more of a control thing. OP specifically mentions that she felt a lot happier when Mary moved away for university, and considering that these two were basically inseparable their entire lives, OP only truly noticed how controlling Mary was when she was no longer around.

[@TheresaProsper-c8v]

S1 Anna is deplorable. How can anyone in this day and age think it's OK to out someone.

[@gavinwilliams1288]

I’d say for story 2, your mom wants Mary as a daughter? Let her. Go NC with her and just keep contact with your dad. She made her choice, as did your former friends that sided with her

[@cassandrapettiford6030]

Its like she couldn't wait to tell it!!! I've got secrets from ex girlfriends i haven't spoken about and we've been broken up for about 8 years..i would never!!

[@summerstorytrue]

This situation highlights the importance of setting boundaries in relationships. It’s concerning when a friend feels entitled to dictate your personal choices, especially regarding your fiancée. Healthy friendships are built on mutual respect, not control or manipulation. If someone cannot support your happiness, it might be time to re-evaluate their role in your life. Remember, your relationships should bring you joy and support, not unnecessary conflict. Wishing you clarity and strength as you navigate this challenging situation.

[@KittySecrets-1998]

My personal opinion is that in both stories, the lack of communication, respect for personal boundaries, and abuse of power in relationships are very concerning. In any relationship, whether with friends or family, mutual respect is essential, especially when facing important life decisions. Maintaining toxic relationships can prolong pain and make one feel out of control. Cutting ties with those who don't respect you, as seen in the stories above, can be a crucial step in regaining peace and taking control of your own life.

[@cj_.44._cf]

See that right there is why you sue someone into oblivion.

[@zacharylewis2802]

S1: OP’s sister definitely threatened to cut their parents off unless they agreed to accept OP being gay.

[@90FormulaE8]

I will never understand people sometimes. If someone tells me something in confidence, hell even if it's not on confidence, our conversation was between the two of us and that's it. It does bot go any further than that. My wife gets bent at me when I know things before people we know make them public. People confide in me because I keep my friggin mouth shut. You only have one chance to earn someone's trust and friendship, don't screw it up by running your trap.

[@SueñosReddit-q3y]

Es importante priorizar el respeto y los límites personales en cualquier relación. Nadie debería sentir presión de terminar con su pareja solo porque alguien más no la aprueba. ¡Cuida de ti mismo y de tus decisiones!

[@MaFavorites1976]

O p's mom has a golden child.That's not even biologically hers

[@allisonstephens1837]

First story Trust NO ONE COMPLETELY EVER..

[@fl-ri-]

AI stories man.

[@zan8289]

What exactly is making it seem AI? so I know what to look for.

[@avalineriley6809]

They are on Reddit.....

[@Knives7777]

If you feel that way why are you here? Why did you feel the need fo type this instead of just blocking the channel from your recommended?

[@HeoBaby24]
