Question Posted Tuesday September 28 2004, 8:47 pm
Hey Hey,
Well one of my friends hurts herself becasue she is depressed and I found this out from another friend and I wrote a letter to the friend that was hurtin herself that she shouldn't do that and that too many ppl love her and that we don't know what we would do without her and she said that she just needs ppl to understand her and I said I would. But now the friend that told me about my depressed friend is mad at me because I supposidily promised her that I wouldn't tell anyone that I knew. I don't know what to do. Should I forget it? The friend that is mad at me was one of my best friends. HELP!

Friend number two= mad best friend
This best friend of yours is being kind of selfish. You did a great thing by writing friend number one a letter telling her how much she matters to people. Instead of worrying about how mad she would be, you were worried about her well-being. Your best friend should have said something to her, she should have also been there for her. #2 should have known that #1 needed good friends like you to know that she's hurting herself so that you could help her out.

You didn't technically tell anyone that you knew because you told the person that's doing it! If you're ur friend was really a best friend then she should understand. Just explain that it was the best thing to do u have it all figured out with the friend that was cutting. Tell her that ur incredibly sry and u thought u were doing the best thing. just explain and make up! best of luck, i'm so sry ur best friend is mad hope i helped. :) [ misunderstood64's advice column | Ask misunderstood64 A Question ]

Just tell your mad friend that your friend means a lot to you and you wanted her to know you love her, so you talked to her, and you're sorry but you had to. Good luck!

Well, you broke Taylor's trust and I don't know if you will eva earn it back. Try baby steps in building your relationship over. I wish you the best of luck and hopefully Taylor will find it in her heart to forgive you. Cause I know we both miss her. Good Luck* [ Hannah's advice column | Ask Hannah A Question ]
