Friends

[Connemmara]

If anybody was interested last night. One of my best friends is in a very desperate way towards daughter-in-law the past 2 or 3 years. I work with daughter-in-law's family in CU on Monday night

I am getting impression but know from same friend (whom I don't see often now) but she doesn't want me to have any relationship with daughter blah blah relatives. I am literally with one of them about 2 hours per week.

I have to be courteous to my punters and my colleagues so I have argued the point with her and she doesn't like it. Last night cut me off from the phone.

I know she is breaking her heart - but what the hell can I do.

^^^^^ btw do think I should interfere - talk with son etc - friend does have a husband - now I think he should have interfered. What a situation!!!!!

She'll have to get over it, what does she expect you to do, give up the CU?

Stay well out of it, just be polite to your colleagues and don't get involved with the tittle tattle.

I think Rocky - she wants (nigh the impossible)me not to have anything to do with them. Please don't think I am blowing up my ass. But what it is worth they actually invited me to daughter's wedding last year (ie daughter-in-law'sister - so complicated.- Of course, I didn't go - not because of my friend - my loathing of weddings. Friend is in a bad way.

You know, I am on my own with Mr Harv but I have to go on. I have been through with this friend through thick and thin. Her husband (please don't ask) was in the "hospital" for 8 years and I helped her out with 8 years who suddenly became 16.

She has been a good friend to me ( ie wouldn't tell a soul about anything) - she is the only person who knew what went on with me in 2011 - but, no matter what happened she would never tell. Of that, I can be reassured. What can i do to help her.

I'm not really sure Conn except talk to her, a good friend will understand and not make demands of you that you can't really meet.
