I’m struggling with how to deal with a situation with my childfree friend of many years, “Jess.” My friend “Nelly” sent me screenshots from a Facebook group that Jess is in where Jess posted about my fertility journey and how I have always dreamed of having two kids, but that I have suffered multiple devastating miscarriages. Jess shared that when she hears I’m pregnant she’s started to dread what’s coming next, and that when she heard we’re trying IVF she said she “couldn’t believe it.
My family endured two miscarriages and the ordeals were brutal. Personally I think my friendship would be irreparably damaged if a good buddy of mine said those things about me, but maybe you’re a more forgiving person than I am. No matter what, don’t hesitate to confront Jess on this because you should know for sure if the people in your inner circle are truly on your side.
