she is always mad at me.


Question Posted Tuesday February 20 2007, 10:17 pm

I have this friend whom had a baby late last year. She was so sweet and nice before she got pregnant, like I could always tell her anything. But ever since she had her child, she has been a major b**** lately. The other day I told her that I disliked relationships because I am always getting dumped, and since she has a boyfriend, she says, "well whatever about you. I gotta boyfriend so I am happy so I wouldn't care" or something like that. Also, I left a bulletin on myspace about this video about pre-marital pregnancy (she's 17), and she got so offended, she was going off on me. I told her I didn't mean to do that, but it was like a funny video and it didn't matter who you were you can laugh from it. And I didn't put it out because of her. Merely because I wanted to show my friends how funny it was.

Also, awhile back, I left a bulletin about everyone getting pregnant recently, and how it disgusts me. She leaves a message saying, "It's not disgusting. It's a precious gift." I felt like telling her what she did was a mistake.

Now she is mad at me for what I did recently. I don't think I want to be her friend anyway because how easily offended she gets all the time, because everything I seem to say relates to her problem indirectly.

What can I do? Don't just simply tell me to stop saying stuff that could hurt her because it's everything I say, no matter what it is.

Thanks

There is nothing that says teen pregnancy is wrong, but it's just not a good option for most women. She might have thought that, but no matter what age you are, you love your child. She might be offended by you talking about teen pregnancy with a negative view because of her situation, and because she doesn't think anything negative about her child, and if she never got pregnant she wouldn't have her child. It might not have been great timing, but she loves this child more than anything, and attacking teen pregnancy probably feels like an attack on her daughter.

She is also probably tired, cranky, and jealous. You don't get much rest with a child, and she has even more pressure on her because of her age. While your out there hanging with friends and partying, shes feeding and changing the baby. It's obvious she would be a bit envious.
But don't tolerate her rudness.

Be supportive of her and let her know you are always there for her. But tell her you dont appreciate her rudeness, and you never mean to insult her.

Good luck!

If she's such a bitch, not being her friend will be easy. Just stop being friends with her.

Since she's a young mother, she may be under a lot of stress. Taking care of a baby is a job and a responsibility. And it's not going to be easy for a teen in school or for anyone her age. Just give her a few weeks or so. And if you can, I advise you to ask her if you could babysit her child and have her get a few days away from the baby.
And if it's not just stress, it may be post partum depression...in which that case, she might need to go to the doctor because you don't want anything to happen to her or the baby.
