Thought I'd ask your opinion on a certain friend of mine 'cause I know you all have really good advice and tell it like it is
I met my OH back in June and at the time I was out every Saturday night with a small group of friends, one of which I considered to be one of my closest friends. At the end of May I was sacked from the job I was working in and I'd known it had been coming for a while because they had wanted me out for some time and changed my sales target 2 days before the end of the month so that I wouldn't hit it and they'd have the perfect excuse. Luckily I'd moved into a much cheaper flat (through a friend) 2 weeks before they got rid of me so my rent and bills to keep a roof over my head came to no more than £500 a month so I could afford even if I had to temp for a couple of months.
So...me and the OH were getting on well and I had been single for a while so it was nice to have someone around again. I was worried about my lack of job and I didn't really want him to, but he lent me the money to cover my rent one month as I was panicking etc. I knew I'd pay him back as soon as I was working again. On one night out where he wasn't round (before he lent me the money) my so-called close friend asked what I was gonna do about money to cover my rent. I said that i was doing everything I could to get another job and my OH said he would probably lend me the money if I got really stuck.
She then took it upon herself to ring up my OH's sister in law (another friend of hers) telling her all about it. She said all this stuff about me hating working and it would be ideal for me to meet a man, get pregnant and never work again?! WTF?! Then tells sister in law that I was going round bragging about my OH lending me this money and that I was onto a good bloke her I could get stuff out of. I was shocked when I found this out only recently 'cause I thought she was supposed to be one of my closes friends! I was happy living alone and didn't want a man to rescue me! I'd been working in sales for nearly 2 years to make loads of money for myself and wasn't bothered about meeting someone!
My OH then tells me that this friend also rang him up at the time and told him to be wary about lending me money! I was livid when I found out and I've not really made the effot to speak to her since even though she doesn't know I have any idea about it. I'm angry 'cause me and my OH could have split up over that 'cause it was blown out of proportion at the time and we did argue about it back then.
Me and my OH live together now and got engaged at Xmas and our little princess is due in May so my priorities and circle of friends have been changing since I found out about little one anyway, but I feel so hurt by this friend. Am I right to feel betrayed by her? I've confided in her about so many things and always slept over at hers after nights out and we were supposed to be close friends!
