Honest Opinion time!

I have a friend that I am ready to walk away from after 9 years of friendship. We always ate lunch together at work. Then we invited a new employee to eat with us. This person has insidiously and passively aggressively done things over several years to take over our friendship and push me out. There have been so many hurt feelings that I have tucked away thinking I was paranoid until another employee pointed out everything I had been thinking. The sad part is my girlfriend is totally blind to her behavior and despite proving some of her behavior to my friend she turns a blind eye to it. After being off for the whole summer and returning 41 pounds lighter neither one of them even acknowledged my weight loss. Only after someone complimented me in front of her did she act surprised that I had lost weight. So I guess I am so frickin invisible now she doesn't even notice anything anymore. Today I am at the gym and she starts talking to me and asking what I did to lose the weight. I told her wls and she was happy for me but only said "You can really see it in your face" and you could tell she didn't want to say another word. This pissed me off and I just looked at her and said Thank you I have lost almost 40 inches and went from a 22/24 to an 18. Waited a few seconds and said okay I got to go and left. If that was bitchy of me OH WELL!!! I just feel like this friendship has gone toxic as is and I need to distance myself from her. Am I nuts or is this a good decision?

  • Good decision, as hard as it may be. With friends like her, who needs enemies? Your TRUE friends are there for you, cheering you on every inch and pound you lose. Sounds like she could just be jeal

Great decision! Bet you've never lost 150+ pounds in one day before now! :D
