I work with a bunch of blokes so I’ll let you know at exactly what time they take the piss out of my top 😂

@WilmaHun try not to feel too bad. You did everything you could! One thing I’ve learnt is people have to want to help themselves before anybody else can help! I’m glad she’s getting help though! ❤

I have this overwhelming feeling that I want to go out and get smashed but that won’t make my life any better so going to try my very best not too!

just realised I sound like a massive alcoholic there. I’m not I swear 😂

Hey all
Another glorious day of sunshine. I'm in the garden trying to attack the gardening.
My son tested positive for covid earlier. He's absolutely fine, playing swingball in the sun eating an ice lolly 😂

Hope you all have a good day 🌞🌞

I used to love these off the ice cream van as a kid, they'd literally turn your tongue, outfit, face blue. They were great! Haven't seen one in years

Hello everyone, just wanted to pop in and ask a question or get advice because you're all lovely on here.. never done a spoiler thing before so I hope it works..
if you suspected a close friend of lying would you call them out? Or would you just leave it and let them keep digging their own grave. I have this friend which I've known since I was about 13 (28 now so a long time) in 2018 I went through a horrific time, I lost a pregnancy and it really messed me up.. I can only just talk about it now without crying so I'm making progress lol. She knows all this.. She knows how bad I went through it.. and now she's telling me she's had to have a termination because her bf can't afford to look after her and a child. If anyone has ever been through it on here you'll know how mentally and physically straining it is when you lose a pregnancy. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. But since she's told me its happened to her she's been out, drinking, partying, having reunions with other friends... she told me she was living in her car because she was moving in with her boyfriend.. (how? you'd need to be near a toilet at all times) she's told me not to tell anyone, her mum or boyfriend absolutely cannot know for some reason.. like wtf? It probably sounds awful but I think she's lying about it.. She's lied about stuff before and been caught out.. (her boyfriend nearly broke up with her once because of it) she even stole a shampoo and conditioner from my house once and swore blind it wasn't her but I saw it in her bathroom weeks later :rolleyes: I don't know...help.. what do you think I should do? it's driving me mad.. I can't stop thinking about it.

I can see why you think she’s lying, for sure. Cos I’ve had a termination when I was 17 and my boyfriend pressured me into it and that ducked me up, and I’ve had 3 losses and they still duck me up to this day. I wouldn’t call what’s she’s doing normal behaviour at all… I’ve got friends who have had terminations just purely cos they didn’t want the baby and even then, it really messed them up cos it’s just not something nice to go through. If she’s a known compulsive liar, and she sounds a bit toxic anyway, honestly I’d cut her off. No one deserves to be put through the constant questioning whether someone is lying. You should trust what a friend tells you!

@whisperchat I think it's a difficult one and you have to weigh up what the outcome will likely be if you do call her out on it. But if I'm being honest, from the tiny snippet you've given there, I'm wondering if she's really that good of a friend to you at all. It might be better just cutting ties with her and let her dig her own grave as you say. A friendship shouldn't be draining, and nor should it have you questioning what they say. I wonder if you'd be better of distancing yourself from her?

@watermelon sugar @WilmaHun thank you both, what you're saying is right, I've questioned myself so many times like why am I even still friends with her? We stopped speaking for about 2/3 years because I would make the effort to try meet her and she'd just let me down all the time saying she was ill or had no money but then be out with someone else, we had a row and then stopped speaking and then before covid happened she reached out to me and asked if we could put it all behind us.. I think I'm just a soft touch.. So annoyed at myself. She is toxic isn't she. Imagine lying about something as sensitive and awful as that to a friend whos genuinely been through it?? wow. Winding myself up now hahah.

My mum went and spoke to a spiritual lady and she said that my baby was a little girl and she is always around me developing as a rainbow. How cute.

yes she sounds incredibly toxic and life is too short to have people like that around you! surround yourself with people you can trust and want to see you!!

that is very cute, when you go through things like that it's nice to have a positive aspect on it, like it's a nice comfort her saying she is developing as a rainbow 🌈

I agree- she sounds like a pretty crappy friend - I think it might be best to cut her off!

@ordinaryjelly sending you loads of love. I can’t imagine how you feel so I don’t feel I have anything helpful to say but you are so strong to have made it this far and I’m sure I can speak for all the silly witches when I say how inspirational you are. Please do let us know how your night was when you’re feeling up to it.

@WilmaHun I’m glad that your mum and dad were able to have an honest chat about how she is and that this is hopefully a turning point for her getting better. Please don’t feel guilty, it sounds like you did everything you could in a difficult situation where you didn’t have all the information. Your mum is very lucky to have you 💕

I love just ice or just ice-cream on a stick. Not mixing the two.

I love a Fab, a plain old lemonade ice, Calyppo. A rocket. Those kinds, mostly plain ice. For ice cream on a stick I have to be in a real mood to fancy it but a Mint Magnum is g9od.

You're right, thank you again!! I will go home and have a good think tonight about how to approach the situation without being horrible or upsetting her...

Although I said I can talk about it without crying, the rainbow emoji just made me tear up lol.. good grief 😂 I look a right nutter at work happy crying over a rainbow emoji lol.
