    Then she's not a real friend anyway ... not sure why you would want her in your life.

    Friends support each other ... find one that respects you and your friendship.

    She's going to continue as long as you put up with it.

    She supports me but like she won't get directly involved if anything, even if it directly involves her she is like a ostrich, she will just stick her head under the sand and say, " If I can't see it it doesn't exist, if I can't see it it doesn't exist "

    Is that enough for you?? I don't think so. She's being selfish and friends aren't selfish. But, it's your life. I just think you deserve better than that ..

    If you have not done anything wrong then she should stick up for you. If you know that you are wrong in any way, then you should not expect to be backed up.

    The question becomes, is this "wont stick up for you" a one time thing, an occasional thing, an all the time thing, or an all the time thing after a certain event?

    I have the situation, I had a buddy, I trusted him. He did something and I have lost that trust. Now I back him on some things, but it is not like the old thick and thin. Now I am looking to finish a contract and leave the whole area I live in, and change everything, what he did was that severe. If it is something small and can be fixed, sit and talk it out if you can. If not, time to move on.

    Let her fall on her *** next time, and show her how it feels.

    Honestly--it's been so long since I was your age, I couldn't give you advice like that. So many kids your age are on here asking question we oldies can't relate to. Sorry. I wish my problems were as small as yours. Good luck.
