“She was growing into a person I didn’t like, but I stayed friends with her because we had 17 years of history together. When I met my husband, I 100% knew he was the one and told her I was head over heels in love, but when she met him, she told me, ‘He seems more my type than yours. He’s too attractive for you.’ OK, bitch, whatever. Then one day, she and I were out in an area with poor cell service, and I used her phone to call my man and let him know when I’d be home. She secretly saved his number. He started telling me, ‘Nicole isn’t a good friend,’ and he would tell me he didn’t want to be around her. Then one day, he sat me down and told me the reason was that she was trying to hook up with him.”
“He showed me the texts where she was begging him to cheat on me, telling him I’d never have to know, asking him how he could stay faithful to someone so ugly (me) when she was so much better looking, and she sent pics of her breasts. I ended the friendship with her immediately.
Our circle of friends was divided on the issue. I refused to socialize with her, so if they invited me to anything, I’d ask if Nicole was going and politely decline if she was. They told me, ‘Yeah, she fucked up, but you’re choosing some guy over a 17-year friendship, and it’s putting people in an uncomfortable spot having to choose who to invite to things.’ I replied, ‘Well, I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable, so I’ll make it easy on you: y’all can have her. Don’t bother inviting me to anything again,’ and I never spoke to any of them again.
That was 22 years ago, and I stand by my decision. When my husband died, a couple of them reached out, but I did not reply.”
