A woman told her male friend to stop talking about intimate topics while he was friends with her and had a gf at the same time. She said it isn’t fair to the gf. He felt threatened and walked out on what was a deep and amazing friendship.
She felt miserable and lost her closest friend because of it. It hurt her more because he didn’t do anything to fix the situation. He left her without closure and happily moved on with the gf.
The woman told the gf’s friend about it to share her grief. That friend badmouthed and twisted the woman’s words to both the gf and the male friend, forever keeping the woman and the male friend apart.
That woman still hopes for closure one day. It breaks her heart to know she was so easily disposed by everyone she considered to be a good friend.
My best friend and I went to Chicago for my birthday one year. We were having a great time when a guy friend from college messaged me that he was also in Chicago for work. We all decided to have drinks and dinner together that evening.
We barhopped and had a lot of fun. My best friend and I were pretty drunk by the end of the night when we went to drop off college friend at his hotel. He mentioned that he had some cupcakes for my birthday up in his room. So the three of us went up together. Best friend went to the bathroom. College friend then tried to attack me by forcibly trying to kiss me and hold me to him. I was telling him no the whole time and trying to get away from him. Best friend got out of the bathroom, saw what was happening and tore him off me. (I’m 5’1, she’s 5’10, and he was around 6’)
I don’t really remember what happened next but best friend and I were in a cab on our way back to our Airbnb. I’m so grateful for her and love her so much. College friend is no longer a friend and has tried to apologize to me countless times and I ended up blocking him.
My best friend found a new house & moved in with me in the space of 3 weeks when I was diagnosed with cancer.
Multiple female friends have sat with me through heavy medical appointments & sessions of chemotherapy – ensuring I am never alone.
Another of my best friends comforted & protected me during a panic attack brought on by a former friend bullying me. She also ensured that person was removed from my space.
My friends staged a kind but firm intervention when they saw me getting caught up in a toxic situationship.
My sister’s have been my closest & most constant companions through my life, and we collectively have had each other’s backs through an abusive upbringing & subsequent relationships in adulthood.
And the list goes on… women having the backs of women make my world go around <3
